Reports and Findings
Research
The impact of respiratory viruses on lung health after preterm birthThe aim of this review is to highlight the risk factors that may contribute to increased susceptibility to viral respiratory infections among preterm infants
Research
Airway function in infancy is linked to airflow measurements and respiratory symptoms from childhood into adulthoodLung airflow measurements track from birth into early adulthood, suggesting a permanent and stable airway framework is laid down in the antenatal period
Research
IgE and T-cell responses to house dust mite allergen componentsRecent studies with synthetic peptides representing allergens and non-allergenic house dust mite proteins now offer new research avenues on HDM induced immune responses
Research
CrossTalk opposing view: Mucosal acidification does not drive early progressive lung disease in cystic fibrosisWhether airway mucosal acidification drives early progressive lung disease is controversial
Research
Conserved temporal ordering of promoter activation implicates common mechanisms governing the immediate early response across cell types and stimuliWe obtain a set of 57 candidate immediate early genes possessing promoters that consistently drive a rapid but transient increase in expression over time
Research
Differential Sensitivity of Human Hepatocellular Carcinoma Xenografts to an IGF-II Neutralizing Antibody May Involve Activated STAT3These findings implicate the activation of STAT3 as one pathway that may mediate resistance to IGF-II-targeted therapy in HCC
Research
Social impairments in autism spectrum disorder are related to maternal immune history profilethis study is the first to show an association between immune activation history in the mother and increased ASD symptom severity in children with ASD
Research
Rheumatic heart disease in pregnancy: How can health services adapt to the needs of Indigenous women? A qualitative studyHealth systems did not meet the needs of pregnant Aboriginal women with rheumatic heart disease
Research
WHO/IUIS Allergen Nomenclature: Providing a common languageAim was to standardize the names given to the antigens (allergens) that caused IgE-mediated allergies in humans
Research
Age invariance in rapid facial affective reactions to emotionally valenced stimuliRapid facial reactions to emotional stimuli are intact in late adulthood, even in response to stimuli that activate more automatic and implicit forms of emotion processing
