Maternal high fat diet compromises survival and modulates lung development of offspring, and impairs lung function of damsWhile maternal high fat diet compromised litter survival, it also promoted somatic and lung growth (increased lung volume) in the offspring
Research
Factors influencing the assessment of lung function in mice with influenza-induced lung diseaseThe constant-phase model (CPM) is commonly fit to respiratory system input impedance (Z rs) to estimate lung mechanics.
Research
Reference values for spirometry: The way forward for our patientsFew clinical respiratory laboratories have assessed the impact of changing reference equations on the interpretation of spirometric outcomes.
On average, a person can expect to take more than 700 million breaths in their lifetime.

New study to better understand how bronchiectasis develops during childhoodA new research project – the WA Paediatric Bronchiectasis Cohort Study – officially commenced this month with the aim of looking at children with bronchiectasis in Western Australia, like nine-year-old Holly (pictured), to better understand how this disease develops during childhood.

In utero cigarette smoke exposure impairs somatic and lung growth in BALB/c miceThe aim of this study was to assess whether in utero tobacco smoke exposure alone affects early-life lung growth and development. Pregnant BALB/c mice...
