Showing results for "early lung health"
This study shows, for the first time, that exposure to e-cigarette aerosol during adolescence and early adulthood is not harmless to the lungs and can result in significant impairments in lung function.
As part of the Wal-yan Respiratory Research Centre’s aim to support the next generation of scientists in children’s respiratory research, a competitive scholarship program was introduced this year.
A new study has found a common asthma drug is effective for some very premature babies who go on to suffer from lung complications.
The vision of the Nutrition in Early Life team is to work together with the community to produce quality research, for improving our knowledge of how a mother’s diet during pregnancy and breastfeeding can improve both her and her child’s health.
Almost one in five children across four remote Kimberley communities has some form of chronic lung disease, according to a new study co-designed and conducted in partnership with Aboriginal communities.
Researchers at Perth's Telethon Institute are one step closer to preventing serious lung disease which is the main cause of suffering in cystic fibrosis.
Lung function is highly heritable and differs between the sexes throughout life. However, little is known about sex-differential 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.
A new program that uses cutting edge stem cell techniques to repair lung damage in children will be established at The Kids Research Institute Australia with support from the Telethon-Perth Children’s Hospital Research Fund (TPCHRF).
The present study investigated whether lung function measured by forced oscillation technique would be impaired in the presence of infection,...
Pulmonary function measures reflect respiratory health and are used in the diagnosis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
