This study aimed to explore the links between infection and where early damage due to CF is found in young children with CF. The results showed that

Metabolomic Biomarkers Predictive of Early Structural Lung Disease in Cystic Fibrosis. ABSTRACT Neutrophilic airway inflammation plays a role in

Quantitative assessment of airway dimensions in youngchildren with cystic fibrosis lung disease using chestcomputed tomography Abstract Objective: To

Oxidative stress and abnormal bioactive lipids in early cystic fibrosis lung disease. What did you find? We focused on lipid molecules which we know

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) results from gene-environment interactions over the lifetime. These interactions are captured by epigenetic changes, such as DNA methylation.  

A new program that uses cutting edge stem cell techniques to repair lung damage in children will be established at The Kids Research Institute Australia with support from the Telethon-Perth Children’s Hospital Research Fund (TPCHRF).

Almost one in five children across four remote Kimberley communities has some form of chronic lung disease, according to a new study co-designed and conducted in partnership with Aboriginal communities.

Multiple breath washout is a lung function test based on tidal breathing that assesses lung volume and ventilation distribution. The aim of this analysis was to use the Global Lung Function Initiative methodology to develop all-age reference equations for the multiple breath washout indices lung clearance index and functional residual capacity.

Better understanding of evolution of lung function in infants with cystic fibrosis...

Appropriate interpretation of pulmonary function tests (PFTs) involves the classification of observed values as within/outside the normal range based on a reference population of healthy individuals, integrating knowledge of physiological determinants of test results into functional classifications and integrating patterns with other clinical data to estimate prognosis.
