Infant respiratory infections and later respiratory hospitalisation in childhoodThe aim of this study was to use total-population based data on an otherwise healthy population of children to assess the relationship between early...
Research
Early respiratory infection is associated with reduced spirometry in children with cystic fibrosisWe 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...

Preschool Multiple-Breath Washout Testing. An Official American Thoracic Society Technical StatementConsensus recommendations are outlined to direct preschool device design, test performance, and data analysis for the MBW technique
Research
Multiple-breath washout outcomes are sensitive to inflammation and infection in children with cystic fibrosisThe lung clearance index may be a useful surveillance tool for monitoring the presence and extent of lower airway inflammation and infection
Research
Structural determinants of long term functional outcomes in young children with cystic fibrosisChest CT identifies children at an early age who have adverse long-term outcomes
Research
Determinants of early-life lung function in African infantsTo assess the determinants of early lung function in African infants.
Research
A systematic approach to multiple breath nitrogen washout test qualityThe application of the systematic review improved inter-observer agreement but did not affect reported multiple breath washout outcomes
Research
Upper Airway Pathology Contributes to Respiratory Symptoms in Children Born Very PretermThe upper airway may play a role in the respiratory symptoms experienced by some very preterm children and should be considered by clinicians
Research
Official ERS technical standard: Global Lung Function Initiative reference values for static lung volumes in individuals of European ancestryMeasurement of lung volumes across the life course is critical to the diagnosis and management of lung disease. The aim of the study was to use the Global Lung Function Initiative methodology to develop all-age multi-ethnic reference equations for lung volume indices determined using body plethysmography and gas dilution techniques.

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.
