Clinical significance of circulating microRNAs as markers in detecting and predicting congenital heart defects in childrenIn this study, we aimed to investigate the usefulness of miRNAs as biomarkers in diagnosing and predicting children with congenital heart defects (CHD), particularly in the context of multiple subtypes of CHD.
Research
Associations between cardiovascular disease and its risk factors with hearing loss—A cross-sectional analysisWe investigate the relationship between hearing loss and cardiovascular disease risk factors.
Research
Visualisation of Multiple Tight Junctional Complexes in Human Airway Epithelial CellsApically located tight junctions in airway epithelium perform a fundamental role in controlling macromolecule migration through paracellular spaces.

What are the position and power of supermarkets in the Australian food system, and the implications for public health? A systematic scoping reviewThis review synthesized the literature that describes the position and power of supermarkets in the Australian system, and the implications for public health.
Research
Identification of generic and pathogen-specific cord blood monocyte transcriptomes reveals a largely conserved response in preterm and term newborn infantsThese data provide novel insights into the functionality of neonatal monocytes at birth
Research
Protocol for Pertussis Immunisation and Food Allergy (PIFA): a case-control study of the association between pertussis vaccination in infancyWe therefore speculate that removal of wP from the vaccine schedule contributed to the observed rise in IgE-mediated food allergy among Australian infants
Research
Investigating the long-term impact of a childhood sun-exposure intervention, with a focus on eye health: protocol for the Kidskin-Young Adult Myopia StudyA follow-up of Kidskin Study participants provides an opportunity to investigate the associations between a childhood sun-exposure intervention and potentially related conditions in adulthood
Research
After asthma: Redefining airways diseasesIdentify entrenched areas of asthma management and treatment in which progress has stalled and to challenge current principles
Research
Foetal growth restriction in mice modifies postnatal airway responsiveness in an age and sex-dependent mannerOur data demonstrate changes in airway responsiveness as a result of intrauterine growth restriction that could influence susceptibility to asthma development
Research
We examined the impact of introducing a dedicated team to OPAT, to define the role of increased medical oversight in improving patient outcomes in this cohort.To evaluate the risk of stillbirth, PTB, and SGA as a proxy for FGR following exposure to one or more of these factors in a previous birth.
