We developed a measure of hand function, and then investigated relationships between hand function, type of MECP2 mutation, age and severity of symptoms.
Identifying pediatric lung disease: A comparison of forced oscillation technique outcomes Abstract Rationale Increasing evidence suggests the forced

Mechanical Abnormalities of the Airway Wall in Adult Mice After Intrauterine Growth RestrictionWe propose that mechanical abnormalities of the airway wall acquired through disrupted fetal growth impact susceptibility to disease

Prospective cohort study of childhood behaviour problems and adolescent sexual risk-taking: Gender mattersThis study sought to determine relationships, by gender, between childhood behaviour problems and adolescent risky sexual behaviours and substance use.

A New Model to Investigate the Action of Radiation and Cigarette Smoke on Head and Neck Cancer CellsSmokers are at an increased risk of developing mucosal head and neck squamous cell cancers (HNSCCs) and have a worse prognosis when treated. The cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying the latter has not been established. We therefore developed an in vitro model to investigate the effects of radiation and smoking on mucosal HNSCCs.

Development and Validation of a Multifactor Mindfulness Scale in Youth: The Comprehensive Inventory of Mindfulness Experiences-Adolescents (CHIME-A)This study aimed to investigate whether multifactor scales of mindfulness can be used in adolescents.

Decreased occurrence of ketoacidosis and preservation of beta cell function in relatives screened and monitored for type 1 diabetes in Australia and New ZealandIslet autoantibody screening of infants and young children in the Northern Hemisphere, together with semi-annual metabolic monitoring, is associated with a lower risk of ketoacidosis (DKA) and improved glucose control after diagnosis of clinical (stage 3) type 1 diabetes (T1D). We aimed to determine if similar benefits applied to older Australians and New Zealanders monitored less rigorously.

ApoB48-Lipoproteins Are Associated with Cardiometabolic Risk in AdolescentsAdolescents with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) have increased incidence of cardiometabolic risk factors including dyslipidemia. Atherogenic apolipoprotein (apo) B-lipoprotein remnants are associated with increased cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk.

Airway function in infancy is linked to airflow measurements and respiratory symptoms from childhood into adulthoodLung airflow measurements track from birth into early adulthood, suggesting a permanent and stable airway framework is laid down in the antenatal period
