Increased exhaled nitric oxide in wind and brass musiciansPlaying a wind or brass (W/B) instrument is considered a strenuous activity for the respiratory system.

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.

Clinical investigation of respiratory system admittance in preschool childrenWe compared the ability of Ars, to standard oscillatory outcomes, to determine respiratory disease and differentiate responses to inhaled bronchial challenges.

Clinical significance and applications of oscillometryRecently, "Technical standards for respiratory oscillometry" was published, which reviewed the physiological basis of oscillometric measures and detailed the technical factors related to equipment and test performance, quality assurance and reporting of results. Here we present a review of the clinical significance and applications of oscillometry.
Research
Metabolomics to predict asthma in children (MAP Study)Childhood asthma begins as wheeze (a whistling sound produced by the airways during breathing) during preschool age.
Research
The next generation of impact in cystic fibrosisLung damage in children with CF occurs much earlier than previously thought, and proving this is related to the decline that occurs later will create new paradigms for prevention and treatment.
