A phase 3 multi-centre randomized placebo-controlled study of azithromycin in the primary prevention of radiologically-defined bronchiectasis in infants with cystic fibrosis
Changes in airway inflammation with pseudomonas eradication in early cystic fibrosis Background: Neutrophil elastase is a significant risk factor for
A population of neutrophils recruited into cystic fibrosis (CF) airways is associated with proteolytic lung damage, exhibiting high expression of primary granule exocytosis marker CD63 and reduced phagocytic receptor CD16. Causative factors for this population are unknown, limiting intervention. Here we present a laboratory model to characterize responses of differentiated airway epithelium and neutrophils following respiratory infection.
Standards and consensus recommendations are presented for manufacturers, clinicians, operators, and researchers
The legacy of Wittenoom has extended beyond the mine and the town, and is still evident more than 50 years after the closure of the mine
