        Lung function changes in children exposed to mine fire smoke in infancy

        Chronic, low-intensity air pollution exposure has been consistently associated with reduced lung function throughout childhood. However, there is limited research regarding the implications of acute, high-intensity air pollution exposure. We aimed to determine whether there were any associations between early life exposure to such an episode and lung growth trajectories. ...

        Adaption and implementation of Aboriginal child lung health tools for northern Western Australia

        André Schultz AS MBChB, PhD, FRACP Program Head, Respiratory Health RFA Program Head, Respiratory Health RFA Prof André Schultz is the Program Head ...

        Early detection of lung function abnormalities in young children with cystic fibrosis

        In this review, we have examined the role of lung function testing in infants and preschool children with CF. ...

        Oxidative stress and abnormal bioactive lipids in early cystic fibrosis lung disease

        Several lipid biomarkers of early cystic fibrosis lung disease were identified, which point toward potential disease monitoring and therapeutic approaches ...

        Feasibility of unsedated lung MRI in young children with cystic fibrosis

        New risk factor identified to help predict the long-term lung health of young adults born very preterm

        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. ...

        In utero exposure to arsenic alters lung development and genes related to immune and mucociliary function in mice

        In utero exposure to arsenic via drinking water increases the risk of lower respiratory tract infections during infancy and mortality from bronchiectasis in... ...

        Research

        Minimal structural lung disease in early life represents significant pathology

        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. ...

        Improving the Diagnosis and Treatment of Paediatric Bronchiectasis Through Research and Translation

        Bronchiectasis, particularly in children, is an increasingly recognised yet neglected chronic lung disorder affecting individuals in both low-to-middle and high-income countries. It has a high disease burden and there is substantial inequity within and between settings. Furthermore, compared with other chronic lung diseases, considerably fewer resources are available for children with bronchiectasis.  ...

        Simultaneous multiple breath washout and oxygen-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging in healthy adults

        Lung function testing and lung imaging are commonly used techniques to monitor respiratory diseases, such as cystic fibrosis (CF). The nitrogen (N2) multiple-breath washout technique (MBW) has been shown to detect ventilation inhomogeneity in CF, but the underlying pathophysiological processes that are altered are often unclear. ...
