        Pulmonary Gas Exchange Improves over the First Year in Preterm Infants with and without Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia

        Right shift of the peripheral oxyhaemoglobin saturation (SpO2) versus inspired oxygen pressure (PIO2) curve is a sensitive marker of pulmonary gas exchange. The aim of this study was to assess the impact of prematurity and bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) on gas exchange and right-to-left shunt in the neonatal period, and its evolution over the first year of life. ...

        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. ...

        High success rate of lung function testing in healthy, unsedated 1- and 2-year-old South African children

        Lung function measures in a health, unsedated 1- and 2-year-old children in a South African birth cohort study ...

        Lung function in African infants in the Drakenstein child health study impact of lower respiratory tract illness

        Early life lower respiratory tract illness impairs lung function at 1 year, independent of baseline lung function ...

        Impact of lung disease on respiratory impedance in young children with cystic fibrosis

        The present study investigated whether lung function measured by forced oscillation technique would be impaired in the presence of infection,... ...

        Vitamin A supplementation in very-preterm or very-low-birth-weight infants to prevent morbidity and mortality: A systematic review and meta-Analysis of randomized trials

        A previous systematic review showed that intramuscular vitamin A supplementation reduced the risk of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) in very-low-birth-weight (VLBW) infants. However, more recent studies have questioned this finding. ...

        Characterisation of lung function trajectories and associated early-life predictors in an Australian birth cohort study

        There is growing evidence that lung function in early-life predicts later lung function. Adverse events over the lifespan might influence an individual’s lung function trajectory, resulting in poor respiratory health. The aim of this study is to identify early-life risk factors and their impact on lung function trajectories to prevent long-term lung impairments. ...

        Lung function and exhaled nitric oxide in healthy unsedated African infants

        Population-appropriate lung function reference data are essential to accurately identify respiratory disease and measure response to interventions. ...
