        Optical coherence tomography-based contact indentation for diaphragm mechanics in a mouse model of transforming growth factor alpha induced lung disease

        This study tested the utility of optical coherence tomography-based indentation to assess mechanical properties of respiratory tissues in disease ...

        Bronchodilator responsiveness in children with asthma is not influenced by spacer device selection

        Spacer device was not associated with clinically important differences in lung function following bronchodilator inhalation in children with asthma ...

        ERS/ATS technical standard on interpretive strategies for routine lung function tests

        Appropriate interpretation of pulmonary function tests (PFTs) involves the classification of observed values as within/outside the normal range based on a reference population of healthy individuals, integrating knowledge of physiological determinants of test results into functional classifications and integrating patterns with other clinical data to estimate prognosis. ...

        Evaluation of the implementation and clinical effects of an intervention to improve medical follow-up and health outcomes for Aboriginal children hospitalised with chest infections

        Aboriginal children hospitalised with acute lower respiratory infections (ALRIs) are at-risk of developing bronchiectasis, which can progress from untreated protracted bacterial bronchitis, often evidenced by a chronic (>4 weeks) wet cough following discharge. We aimed to facilitate follow-up for Aboriginal children hospitalised with ALRIs to provide optimal management and improve their respiratory health outcomes. ...

        Vitamin D deficiency at 16 to 20 weeks' gestation is associated with impaired lung function and asthma at 6 years of age

        This paper examines whether a Vitamin D deficiency during pregnancy affects the child's lung function predisposition towards lung disease such as asthma. ...

        Genome-wide association and large-scale follow up identifies 16 new loci influencing lung function

        Pulmonary function measures reflect respiratory health and are used in the diagnosis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. ...

        Living with lung disease: experimental models to assess the long-term effects of prematurity

        Laboratory models provide an important tool in helping to understand the cellular and molecular drivers of respiratory disease. Many animal models exist that model the neonatal outcomes of preterm birth. ...

        Prevalence of chronic wet cough and protracted bacterial bronchitis in aboriginal children

        Strategies to address reasons for and treatment of chronic wet cough and protracted bacterial bronchitis in young Aboriginal children in remote north Western Australia are required ...
