        Early lung disease in infants and preschool children with cystic fibrosis: What have we learned and what should we do about it?

        This review summarizes what we have learned about early lung disease in children with CF and discusses the implications for clinical practice and research ...

        Determinants of early-life lung function in African infants

        To assess the determinants of early lung function in African infants. ...

        Official ERS technical standard: Global Lung Function Initiative reference values for static lung volumes in individuals of European ancestry

        Measurement of lung volumes across the life course is critical to the diagnosis and management of lung disease. The aim of the study was to use the Global Lung Function Initiative methodology to develop all-age multi-ethnic reference equations for lung volume indices determined using body plethysmography and gas dilution techniques. ...

        The ventilatory response to hypoxia is blunted in some preterm infants during the second year of life

        Preterm birth and subsequent neonatal ventilatory treatment disrupts development of the hypoxic ventilatory response (HVR). An attenuated HVR has been identified in preterm neonates, however it is unknown whether the attenuation persists into the second year of life. ...

        Cystic Fibrosis

        Cystic fibrosis (CF) is the most common chronic, life-shortening genetic condition affecting young Australians. There is no cure but researchers are working to prevent the onset of lung disease. ...

        Persistent activation of interlinked type 2 airway epithelial gene networks in sputum-derived cells from aeroallergen-sensitized symptomatic asthmatics

        Our findings provide new insight into the molecular mechanisms operative at baseline in the airway mucosa in atopic asthmatic with natural aeroallergen exposure ...

        Lung Clearance Index and Structural Lung Disease on Computed Tomography in Early Cystic Fibrosis

        Lung clearance index may be a useful surveillance tool to monitor structural lung disease in preschool and school-age children with cystic fibrosis ...

        The next generation of impact in cystic fibrosis

        Lung damage in children with CF occurs much earlier than previously thought, and proving this is related to the decline that occurs later will create new paradigms for prevention and treatment. ...

        Multiple-breath washout outcomes are sensitive to inflammation and infection in children with cystic fibrosis

        The lung clearance index may be a useful surveillance tool for monitoring the presence and extent of lower airway inflammation and infection ...
