Endocrine and metabolic consequences due to restrictive carbohydrate diets in children with type 1 diabetes: An illustrative case seriesThe promotion of a low carbohydrate diet in media is in contrast to published pediatric diabetes guidelines that endorse a balanced diet from a variety of foods
Research
Group A streptococcal pharyngitis: Immune responses involved in bacterial clearance and GAS-associated immunopathologiesInnate and adaptive host immune responses are fundamental for defense against streptococcal pharyngitis and are central to the clinical manifestation of disease.
Research
Cohort profile: Pregnancy and childhood epigenetics (PACE) consortiumCurrently, DNA methylation is the most studied epigenetic phenomenon in large populations
Research
Investment in child and adolescent health and development: key messages from Disease Control Priorities, 3rd EditionThe realisation of human potential for development requires age-specific investment throughout the 8000 days of childhood and adolescence.
Research
Macrolides in children with community-acquired pneumonia: Panacea or placebo?Pneumonia, most often caused by a respiratory virus, is common in childhood.
Research
Streptococcus pneumoniae colonization of the nasopharynx is associated with increased severity during respiratory syncytial virus infection in young children.The present study aimed to clarify the effect of viral and bacterial co-detections on disease severity during paediatric ARI.
Research
Cohort profile: Pregnancy and childhood epigenetics (PACE) consortiumThe PACE Consortium represents the first steps in the discovery of the role of DNA methylation in health and disease
Research
Sugar-sweetened beverage intake associations with fasting glucose and insulin concentrations are not modified by selected genetic variants in a ChREBP-FGF21 pathway: a meta-analysisWe think that variants in genes involved in fructose metabolism and ChREBP-FGF21 pathway interacts with SSB intake to exacerbate associations with SSB intake.
Research
The Diverse Risk Profiles of Persistently Absent Primary Students: Implications for Attendance Policies in AustraliaUnderstanding variations in risk profiles among persistently non-attending children will inform the development of absence interventions.
Research
Cuffed vs. uncuffed tracheal tubes in children: A randomised controlled trial comparing leak, tidal volume and complicationsOur study compared tidal volume and leakage around cuffed and uncuffed tracheal tubes in children who required standardised mechanical ventilation of the lungs.
