Global strategy for the diagnosis and management of asthma in children 5 years and younger

Asthma is the most common chronic disease of childhood and the leading cause of childhood morbidity from chronic disease as measured by school absences...

Epigenetic dysregulation of naive CD4+ T-cell activation genes in childhood food allergy

Our data indicate epigenetic dysregulation in the early stages of signal transduction through the T cell receptor complex, and likely reflects pathways modified by gene-environment interactions in food allergy

Discovering the sense of touch: Protocol for a randomised controlled trial examining the efficacy of a intervention for children with cerebral palsy

This study will assess the efficacy of an intervention to increase somatosensory discrimination ability in children with cerebral palsy

Latent profiles of early developmental vulnerabilities in a New South Wales child population at age 5 years

Patterns of early childhood developmental vulnerabilities may provide useful indicators for particular mental disorder outcomes in later life

Influence of fecal collection conditions and 16S rRNA gene sequencing at two centers on human gut microbiota analysis

To optimise fecal sampling for reproducible analysis of the gut microbiome, we compared different methods of sample collection and sequencing of 165 rRNA genes.

Investigating the long-term impact of a childhood sun-exposure intervention, with a focus on eye health: protocol for the Kidskin-Young Adult Myopia Study

A follow-up of Kidskin Study participants provides an opportunity to investigate the associations between a childhood sun-exposure intervention and potentially related conditions in adulthood

Conditionally reprogrammed primary airway epithelial cells maintain morphology, lineage and disease specific functional characteristics

Here, we show that conditionally reprogrammed airway epithelial cells (CRAECs) can be established from both healthy and diseased phenotypes.

Maternal BMI at the start of pregnancy and offspring epigenome-wide DNA methylation: Findings from the pregnancy and childhood epigenetics (PACE) consortium

we meta-analysed the association between pre-pregnancy maternal BMI and methylation at over 450,000 sites in newborn blood DNA, across 19 cohorts.

A comparative molecular and 3-dimensional structural investigation into cross-continental and novel avian Trypanosoma spp. in Australia

Here, we confirm four intercontinental species of avian trypanosomes in native Australian birds, and identify a new avian Trypanosoma.

In vitro drug susceptibility of two strains of the wildlife trypanosome, Trypanosoma copemani: A comparison with Trypanosoma cruzi

Compared the in vitro susceptibility of two strains of Trypanosoma copemani and one strain of T. cruzi against drugs that show trypanocidal activity
