Effect of posture on lung ventilation distribution and associations with structure in children with cystic fibrosisBackground: We assessed the effect of posture on ventilation distribution and the impact on associations with structural lung disease.
Research
Air trapping in early cystic fibrosis lung disease-Does CT tell the full story?Mosaic attenuation on expiratory chest computed tomography (CT) is common in early life cystic fibrosis (CF) and often referred to as "air trapping"
Research
Health care utilization and costs for children and adults with duchenne muscular dystrophyThe annual economic cost of DMD was found to be high, reflecting a significant socioeconomic burden, especially in boys who reach adulthood

Early life exposure to coal mine fire smoke emissions and altered lung function in young childrenInfant exposure to coal mine fire emissions could be associated with long-term impairment of lung reactance
Research
Mannitol challenge testing for asthma in a community cohort of young adultsWe aimed to quantify the diagnostic utility of mannitol challenge testing for asthma in a community cohort and a symptomatic wheezing subset of this cohort.
Research
The clinical utility of lung clearance index in early cystic fibrosis lung disease is not impacted by the number of multiple-breath washout trialsThis study aimed to determine if relationships between LCI and clinical outcomes of CF lung disease differ when only two acceptable MBW trials are assessed.
Research
Persistent activation of interlinked type 2 airway epithelial gene networks in sputum-derived cells from aeroallergen-sensitized symptomatic asthmaticsOur findings provide new insight into the molecular mechanisms operative at baseline in the airway mucosa in atopic asthmatic with natural aeroallergen exposure
