Quality of life is poorly correlated to lung disease severity in school-aged children with cystic fibrosisThere is no data exclusively on the relationship between health-related quality-of-life (HRQOL) and lung disease severity in early school-aged children with cystic fibrosis (CF). Using data from the Australian Respiratory Early Surveillance Team for Cystic Fibrosis (AREST CF) we assessed the relationships between HRQOL, lung function and structure.
Research
Delayed airway epithelial repair is correlated with airway obstruction in young adults born very pretermNasal epithelial cells from young adults with a history of very preterm birth show delayed closure following scratch-wounding. Repair correlated with lung function, suggesting epithelial barrier integrity may play a role in preterm-associated lung disease.

Impact of HIV and antiretroviral drug exposure on lung growth and function over 2 years in an African Birth CohortHIV exposure is associated with altered lung function in early life, with a vulnerable HIV-exposed uninfected subgroup based on maternal disease severity

End-inspiratory molar mass step correction for analysis of infant multiple breath washout testsWe aimed to evaluate the use of the EIMM-step method in a broad range of infants.

Early lung disease in infants and preschool children with cystic fibrosis: What have we learned and what should we do about it?This review summarizes what we have learned about early lung disease in children with CF and discusses the implications for clinical practice and research

Living with lung disease: experimental models to assess the long-term effects of prematurityLaboratory 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.
Research
Addressing Race in Pulmonary Function Testing by Aligning Intent and Evidence With Practice and PerceptionThe practice of using race or ethnicity in medicine to explain differences between individuals is being called into question because it may contribute to biased medical care and research that perpetuates health disparities and structural racism.

Lung function in African infants: A pilot studyInfant lung function (ILF) testing may provide useful information about lung growth and susceptibility to respiratory disease.

Preterm birth: Born too soon for the developing airway epitheliumThis review examines the consequences of preterm birth on the airway epithelium and explores the clinical relevance of currently available models
