Showing results for "early lung health"

Identifying pediatric lung disease: A comparison of forced oscillation technique outcomes

These findings suggest the utility of specific FOT outcomes is dependent on the respiratory disease being assessed

Prolonged use of wind or brass instruments does not alter lung function in musicians

Respiratory function impacts on musical expression for wind/brass (W/B) musicians. Investigation of musicians' respiratory health to date has rarely...

Ear Health

ATOMIC Ears Study The ATOMIC Ears Study aims to evaluate a new treatment designed to prevent ongoing ear infections in kids having grommet surgery.

Early Childhood Development

Every child deserves the best possible start in life. Evidence demonstrates the period from pre-birth to three years is a vital period of development. It lays the foundations for a child’s future and has life-long impacts on health, education, job opportunities, social inclusion and wellbeing.

In utero cigarette smoke exposure impairs somatic and lung growth in BALB/c mice

The 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...

Interleukin-1 is associated with inflammation and structural lung disease in young children with cystic fibrosis

Interleukin-1 is associated with inflammation and structural lung disease in young children with cystic fibrosis Early diagnosis and treatment in

Infection, inflammation,and lung function decline in infants with cystic fibrosis

Better understanding of evolution of lung function in infants with cystic fibrosis...

Early respiratory infection is associated with reduced spirometry in children with cystic fibrosis

We hypothesized that the presence of these markers of cystic fibrosis lung disease in the first 2 years of life would be associated with reduced lung...

Healthcare & Early Diagnosis

Exploring opportunities for early diagnosis and intervention and the impact this has on improving family healthcare.

Variants associated with HHIP expression have sexdifferential effects on lung function

Lung function is highly heritable and differs between the sexes throughout life. However, little is known about sexdifferential genetic effects on lung function. We aimed to conduct the first genome-wide genotype-by-sex interaction study on lung function to identify genetic effects that differ between males and females.
