        My child is wheezing – what should I do?

        Almost 50 per cent of preschool children will experience at least one episode of wheeze, a whistling sound produced by the airways during breathing. ...

        ERS technical standard on bronchial challenge testing: pathophysiology and methodology of indirect airway challenge testing

        Assessment of airway hyperresponsiveness are valuable tools to understand and to monitor airway function and to characterise the underlying asthma phenotype to guide therapy ...

        Early Life Ovalbumin Sensitization and Aerosol Challenge for the Induction of Allergic Airway Inflammation in a BALB/c Murine Model

        This protocol adapted an experimental animal model of disease for sensitization to ovalbumin during the immediate post-weaning period beginning at 21 days of age ...

        Airway function in infancy is linked to airflow measurements and respiratory symptoms from childhood into adulthood

        Lung airflow measurements track from birth into early adulthood, suggesting a permanent and stable airway framework is laid down in the antenatal period ...

        The hygiene hypothesis revisited: role of materno-fetal interactions

        For 20 years, the hygiene hypothesis has dominated attempts to explain the increasing prevalence of allergic disease. A causal link between maternal innate immu ...

        Distribution, composition, and activity of airway-associated adipose tissue in the porcine lung

        Patients with comorbid asthma-obesity experience greater disease severity and are less responsive to therapy. We have previously reported adipose tissue within the airway wall that positively correlated with body mass index. Accumulation of biologically active adipose tissue may result in the local release of adipokines and disrupt large and small airway function depending on its anatomical distribution. This study therefore characterized airway-associated adipose tissue distribution, lipid composition, and adipokine activity in a porcine model. ...

        Cord-blood respiratory syncytial virus antibodies and respiratory health in first 5 years of life

        To determine the potential longer-term effects of maternal antenatal respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) vaccination, we examined the association between cord-blood RSV-neutralizing antibodies (RSV-NA) and RSV infections in the first 2 years of life, RSV-NA at 3 years, and respiratory health to age 5 years. ...
