Lung function in African infants: A pilot studyInfant lung function (ILF) testing may provide useful information about lung growth and susceptibility to respiratory disease.

Research
Increasing diversity within the Global Lung Function InitiativeThe Global Lung Function Initiative has worked to develop all‐age, multi‐ethnic reference equations for the major clinical lung function tests
Research
Normative data for multiple breath washout outcomes in school-aged Caucasian childrenThe multiple breath nitrogen washout (N2MBW) technique is increasingly used to assess the degree of ventilation inhomogeneity in school-aged children with lung disease. However, reference values for healthy children are currently not available.
Research
Diverging Trends in Gastroenteritis Hospitalizations during Two Decades in Western Australian Aboriginal and Non-Aboriginal ChildrenOur findings highlight the need to consider age, ethnicity, seasonality and climate when evaluating rotavirus vaccine programs.
Research
Reduced forced vital capacity in Aboriginal Australians: Biology or missing evidence?This editorial article addresses chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and lung function testing in Aboriginal Australians.
Research
Quality of life is poorly correlated to lung disease severity in school-aged children with cystic fibrosisThere is no data exclusively on the relationship between health-related quality-of-life (HRQOL) and lung disease severity in early school-aged children with cystic fibrosis (CF). Using data from the Australian Respiratory Early Surveillance Team for Cystic Fibrosis (AREST CF) we assessed the relationships between HRQOL, lung function and structure.
Research
Air travel and the risks of hypoxia in childrenIn infants and children with chronic respiratory disease, hypoxia is a potential risk of aircraft travel.
Research
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.
