Showing results for "early lung health"

Lung function testing in preschool-aged children with cystic fibrosis in the clinical setting

This study investigated the nature and prevalence of atypical pain responses in Rett syndrome and their relationships with specific MECP2 mutations.

Lung volume and ventilation inhomogeneity in preterm infants at 15-18 months corrected age

To assess whether lung volume and ventilation inhomogeneity in preterm infants at 15-18 months corrected age

Impact of influenza on hospitalization rates in children with a range of chronic lung diseases

This large population-based study suggests a significant healthcare burden associated with influenza in children with a range of chronic lung diseases

Research priorities for preterm lung health research across the lifespan: a community priority setting partnership

It is essential to embed patient and public perspectives into every stage of the research journey, including setting the future research agenda. The substantial gaps in our understanding of prematurity-associated lung disease presented a timely opportunity to determine the community's research priorities.

Early immunological influences on asthma development: opportunities for early intervention

Early immunological influences on asthma development: opportunities for early intervention

Research reveals new link between Vitamin D, lung bacteria and asthma

A The Kids for Child Health Research study has uncovered a new link between vitamin D levels and asthma.

The effects of electronic cigarette aerosol exposure on inflammation and lung function in mice

This study shows, for the first time, that exposure to e-cigarette aerosol during adolescence and early adulthood is not harmless to the lungs and can result in significant impairments in lung function.

New study brings hope for preventing lung disease in children with cystic fibrosis

Researchers at Perth's Telethon Institute are one step closer to preventing serious lung disease which is the main cause of suffering in cystic fibrosis.

Route of exposure alters inflammation and lung function responses to diesel exhaust

In this study, we compared the physiological consequences of short-term exposure to diesel exhaust via inhalation to those due to exposure to the same diesel...

Variants associated with HHIP expression have sex-differential effects on lung function

Lung function is highly heritable and differs between the sexes throughout life. However, little is known about sex-differential genetic effects on lung function. We aimed to conduct the first genome-wide genotype-by-sex interaction study on lung function to identify genetic effects that differ between males and females.
