Showing results for "early lung health"
This paper is an introduction to a series of articles about improved measurement of lung function in patients with chronic lung disease.
Early life lower respiratory tract illness impairs lung function at 1 year, independent of baseline lung function
The constant-phase model (CPM) is commonly fit to respiratory system input impedance (Z rs) to estimate lung mechanics.
The prevalence of vitamin D deficiency is increasing and has been linked to obstructive lung diseases including asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
In this cohort, as compared with the AREST CF cohort, the authors highlight the limited correlation between infection and inflammation with lung function and structural impairment, and that this was mainly explained by the mild changes identified in lung function and on chest CT scan.
Early Lung Surveillance of Cystic Fibrosis: what have we learnt? Click to read the full article Authors: Rachel E Foong, Tim Rosenow, Luke W
A study which set out to determine ways to predict the long-term lung health of young adults born very preterm has shown that a childhood history of respiratory hospital admission should be a key consideration in the management of preterm children and adults.
Our Child Physical Activity, Health and Development team focuses on improving children’s physical activity levels, health and development. We work to uncover the best environments, policies and programs to facilitate physically active lifestyles for lifelong health and wellbeing.
The Respiratory Environmental Health team conducts research in early life determinants of lung growth and development, respiratory environmental health, and mechanisms of airway dysfunction in asthma and other respiratory disease.
Lung Clearance Index and Structural Lung Disease on Computed Tomography in Early Cystic Fibrosis Abstract Rationale: The lung clearance index is a
