Lung function in African infants: A pilot studyUnsedated infant lung function measures of tidal breathing, MBW, and eNO are feasible in a semi-rural African setting
Research
Nasal airway epithelial repair after very preterm birthNasal epithelial cells from very preterm infants have a functional defect in their ability to repair beyond the first year of life, and failed repair may be associated with antenatal steroid exposure.
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
The global lung function initiative (GLI) network: Bringing the world’s respiratory reference values togetherThe Global Lung Function Initiative (GLI) Network has become the largest resource for reference values for routine lung function testing ever assembled.

Novel end points for clinical trials in young children with cystic fibrosisCystic fibrosis (CF) lung disease commences early in the disease progression and is the most common cause of mortality.

Fellowship to support research into ways to improve the lung health of people born pretermWal-yan Respiratory Research Centre researcher Ms Denby Evans has been awarded one of four inaugural fellowships supported by the State's Future Health Research and Innovation (FHRI) Fund and Brightspark Foundation, enabling her to further her research into ways to improve the lung health of people
Research
Preterm birth: Born too soon for the developing airway epitheliumThis review examines the consequences of preterm birth on the airway epithelium and explores the clinical relevance of currently available models
The Children's Lung Health Team investigates lung growth and development through infancy, childhood, adolescence and early adulthood, in health and in chronic lung disease, and the impact of preterm birth on lung health outcomes.
Research
The cost of respiratory hospitalizations in children with cerebral palsyTo establish the burden of respiratory illness in cerebral palsy (CP) on the Western Australian health care system by quantifying the costs of respiratory hospitalizations in children with CP, compared with non-respiratory hospitalizations.
Research
Variants associated with HHIP expression have sex-differential effects on lung functionLung function is highly heritable and differs between the sexes throughout life. However, little is known about sex-differential genetic effects on lung function. We aimed to conduct the first genome-wide genotype-by-sex interaction study on lung function to identify genetic effects that differ between males and females.
