Multiple-breath washout (MBW) is an established technique to assess functional residual capacity (FRC) and ventilation inhomogeneity in the lung. Indirect calculation of nitrogen concentration requires accurate measurement of gas concentrations.
Asthma exacerbations in children are associated with respiratory viral infection and atopy, resulting in systemic immune activation and infiltration of immune cells into the airways. The gene networks driving the immune activation and subsequent migration of immune cells into the airways remains incompletely understood. Cellular and molecular profiling of PBMC was employed on paired samples obtained from atopic asthmatic children during acute virus-associated exacerbations and later during convalescence.
Climatic conditions play a key role in the transmission and pathophysiology of respiratory tract infections, either directly or indirectly. However, their impact on the COVID-19 pandemic propagation is yet to be studied.
This review reports on methods used to evaluate airway clearance techniques (ACT) in adults with CF and examined data for evidence of any effect. Sixty-eight studies described ACT in adequate detail and were included in this review.
Promising results from an Australian-led clinical trial could drastically change the way we care for young children with cystic fibrosis (CF).
Epidemiologic associations between viral lower respiratory infections (LRIs) and asthma in later childhood are well known
Dr Denby Evans, a Wal-yan Respiratory researcher, has been awarded a $25,000 Illuminate Award for her work to change that. Funding by Helping Little Hands, the award was presented at The Kids Research Institute Australia’s 2026 Illuminate PitchFest.
Multiple Breath Washout Outcomes Are Sensitive to Inflammation and Infection in Children with Cystic Fibrosis The multiple breath washout technique
The extent to which maternal smoking in pregnancy (MSP) has persisting effects on respiratory health remains uncertain and the mechanisms involved are not...
