Personalised, machine learning based prediction of asthma in children

This study aims to show that asthma and allergies in individuals can be predicted before it occurs based on individual family history and information on the early environment.

Research

The next generation of impact in cystic fibrosis

Lung damage in children with CF occurs much earlier than previously thought, and proving this is related to the decline that occurs later will create new paradigms for prevention and treatment.

Research

A systematic approach to multiple breath nitrogen washout test quality

The application of the systematic review improved inter-observer agreement but did not affect reported multiple breath washout outcomes

Research

Infant respiratory infections and later respiratory hospitalisation in childhood

The aim of this study was to use total-population based data on an otherwise healthy population of children to assess the relationship between early...

Predicting long term lung health outcomes in young adults born very preterm (WALHIP 19 year old follow-up)

This study will conduct a detailed lung health assessment in a follow-up of a group of preterm individuals at 19 years of age.

Research

Preterm Paediatric Inhaled Corticosteroids Intervention (PICSI)

Understanding if ongoing inflammation in the lungs contributes to the poor lung health experienced by some children who were born preterm.

Global Lung Function Initiative reference values for multiple breath washout indices

Multiple breath washout is a lung function test based on tidal breathing that assesses lung volume and ventilation distribution. The aim of this analysis was to use the Global Lung Function Initiative methodology to develop all-age reference equations for the multiple breath washout indices lung clearance index and functional residual capacity.

Research

Altered lung structure and function in mid-childhood survivors of very preterm birth

To obtain comprehensive data on lung structure and function in mid-childhood from survivors of preterm birth.

Air trapping in early cystic fibrosis lung disease-Does CT tell the full story?

Mosaic attenuation on expiratory chest computed tomography (CT) is common in early life cystic fibrosis (CF) and often referred to as "air trapping"

Research

Effect of posture on lung ventilation distribution and associations with structure in children with cystic fibrosis

Background: We assessed the effect of posture on ventilation distribution and the impact on associations with structural lung disease.
