The Global Lung Initiative 2012 reference values reflect contemporary Australasian spirometryWe aimed to ascertain the fit of the European Respiratory Society Global Lung Initiative 2012 reference ranges to contemporary Australasian spirometric data.
On average, a person can expect to take more than 700 million breaths in their lifetime.

Multiple-breath washout outcomes are sensitive to inflammation and infection in children with cystic fibrosisThe lung clearance index may be a useful surveillance tool for monitoring the presence and extent of lower airway inflammation and infection

Chronic wet cough in Aboriginal children: It's not just a coughResults highlight the need for a culturally appropriate information and education of the importance of chronic wet cough in children
Research
The cumulative effect of inflammation and infection on structural lung disease in early cystic fibrosisPulmonary inflammation in surveillance bronchoalveolar lavage has a cumulative effect on structural lung disease extent, more so than infection

Mouse Lung Structure and Function after Long-Term Exposure to an Atmospheric Carbon Dioxide Level Predicted by Climate Change ModelingClimate change models predict that atmospheric carbon dioxide [CO2] levels will be between 700 and 900 ppm within the next 80yrs. In this study we aimed to assess the respiratory structure and function effects of long-term exposure to 890ppm CO2 from preconception to adulthood using a mouse model.
