        Bronchopulmonary dysplasia: Rationale for a pathophysiological rather than treatment based approach to diagnosis

        This review describes the evolution of bronchopulmonary dysplasia definitions, evaluates the benefits and limitations of each approach ...

        Lung function following very preterm birth in the era of 'new' bronchopulmonary dysplasia

        The pathophysiology of BPD has changed in recent years as advances in neonatal care have led to increased survival of smaller, more preterm, infants who... ...

        Identifying pediatric lung disease: A comparison of forced oscillation technique outcomes

        These findings suggest the utility of specific FOT outcomes is dependent on the respiratory disease being assessed ...

        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. ...

        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. ...

        Effect of posture on lung ventilation distribution and associations with structure in children with cystic fibrosis

        Background: We assessed the effect of posture on ventilation distribution and the impact on associations with structural lung disease. ...

        Respiratory function and symptoms in young preterm children in the contemporary era

        Preterm children have worse lung function than healthy controls ...

        Collecting exhaled breath condensate from non-ventilated preterm-born infants: a modified method

        Exhaled breath condensate (EBC) collection is a non-invasive, safe method for measurement of biomarkers in patients with lung disease. Other methods of obtaining samples from the lungs, such as bronchoalveolar lavage, are invasive and require anaesthesia/sedation in neonates and infants. EBC is particularly appealing for assessing biomarkers in preterm-born infants, a population at risk of ongoing lung disease. ...

        Inhaled corticosteroids to improve lung function in children (aged 6–12 years) who were born very preterm (PICSI): a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial

        Despite the substantial burden of lung disease throughout childhood in children who were born very preterm, there are no evidence-based interventions to improve lung health beyond the neonatal period. We tested the hypothesis that inhaled corticosteroid improves lung function in this population. ...

        Risk factors for poorer respiratory outcomes in adolescents and young adults born preterm

        The respiratory outcomes for adult survivors of preterm birth in the postsurfactant era are wide-ranging with prognostic factors, especially those encountered after the neonatal period, poorly understood. ...

        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. ...
