Research is needed to determine best practice for genomic testing in the context of child interstitial or diffuse lung disease. We explored parent's and child's health-related quality of life, parents' perceived understanding of a genomic testing study, satisfaction with information and the study and decisional regret to undertake genomic testing.

Mental health concerns in youth are important in their own right. However, they can be even more troubling when your child is dealing with other health conditions.

CIRCA DIEM is using an inexpensive set of eye masks and ear plugs to teach babies born too soon how to tell the difference between night and day – a simple skill which could have lifelong implications for their health and development.

This study will conduct a detailed lung health assessment in a follow-up of a group of preterm individuals at 19 years of age.

The constant-phase model (CPM) is commonly fit to respiratory system input impedance (Z rs) to estimate lung mechanics.

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

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 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.
