Air Trapping on Chest CT Is Associated with Worse Ventilation Distribution in Infants with Cystic FibrosisIn school-aged children with cystic fibrosis (CF) structural lung damage assessed using chest CT is associated with abnormal ventilation distribution.
Research
The all-age spirometry reference ranges reflect contemporary Australasian spirometryAdvances in statistical modelling have allowed the creation of smoothly changing spirometry reference ranges that apply across a wide age range and better...

Influence of secular trends and sample size on reference equations for lung function testsThe aim of our study was to determine the contribution of secular trends and sample size to lung function reference equations, and establish the number...

Respiratory function in healthy Emirati children using forced oscillationsForced oscillation technique measurements were feasible in Emirati school-children. New forced oscillation technique reference equation in Emirati children were derived.
Research
Developing sensitive endpoints for respiratory disease progression in children with neuromuscular diseaseWe hope that through earlier diagnosis and treatment of muscle weakness during sleep, we can prevent future lung failure in children with neuromuscular disorders.
The discoveries that have set our research apart primarily relate to the factors early in life that cause life-long respiratory problems.
