Lung inflammation and simulated airway resistance in infants with cystic fibrosisCystic fibrosis (CF) is characterized by small airway disease; but central airways may also be affected. We hypothesized that airway resistance estimated from computational fluid dynamic (CFD) methodology in infants with CF was higher than controls and that early airway inflammation in infants with CF is associated with airway resistance.

Changes in the FEV/FVC ratio during childhood and adolescence: an intercontinental studyIn children, the ratio of forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV₁) to forced vital capacity (FVC) is reportedly constant or falls linearly with age...

Exhaled breath temperature in healthy children is influenced by room temperature and lung volumeExhaled breath temperature (EBT) has been proposed for the non-invasive assessment of airway inflammation

Determinants of lung function development from birth to age 5 years: an interrupted time series analysis of a South African birth cohortEarly life is a key period that determines long-term health. Lung development in childhood predicts lung function attained in adulthood and morbidity and mortality across the life course. We aimed to assess the effect of early-life lower respiratory tract infection (LRTI) and associated risk factors on lung development from birth to school age in a South African birth cohort.
