Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Partnerships to Prevent Permanent Lung Disease (APPLE Study)

In partnership with Aboriginal health services, Government agencies and communities, we will develop and implement evidence-based strategies to improve the detection and management of chronic wet cough in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children.

Lung inflammation and simulated airway resistance in infants with cystic fibrosis

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is characterized by small airway disease; but central airways may also be affected. We hypothesized that airway resistance estimated from computational fluid dynamic (CFD) methodology in infants with CF was higher than controls and that early airway inflammation in infants with CF is associated with airway resistance.

CoLab Early Years Initiative

As we all know, we only get one start in life. Like the Minderoo Foundation, our partners in CoLab, we are determined to ensure that every start is a strong one for children across Australia.

Lung abscess: 14 years of experience in a tertiary paediatric hospital

Lung abscess is a rare condition in paediatrics with a paucity of literature. Intravenous antibiotics is the main therapy; however interventional radiological approaches have led to the use of percutaneous drainage. Surgery is reserved for the management of complications.

Side effects of medications used to treat childhood interstitial lung disease

Interstitial lung disease in children comprises a range of different rare diseases

Despite advances in neonatal care, preterm babies have lower lung function throughout their life

Analysis of worldwide research shows that despite advances in neonatal care, preterm babies have lower lung function throughout their life.

Respiratory toxicology of e-cigarettes: effect of vapours on lung function and inflammation

Electronic cigarettes (ECs) have been rapidly gaining ground on conventional cigarettes due to their efficiency in ceasing or reducing tobacco consumption,...

KINDEE: Kids INfections and Day care’s Effects on the lungs in those born Early

Over the last 40 years medical advances in the care of newborn babies has resulted in more children surviving very early “preterm” birth than ever before.

The global lung function initiative (GLI) network: Bringing the world’s respiratory reference values together

The Global Lung Function Initiative (GLI) Network has become the largest resource for reference values for routine lung function testing ever assembled.
