This study used qualitative methods to explore how adolescents with Duchenne muscular dystrophy used a powered wheelchair standing device in their daily lives

Chronic, low-intensity air pollution exposure has been consistently associated with reduced lung function throughout childhood. However, there is limited research regarding the implications of acute, high-intensity air pollution exposure. We aimed to determine whether there were any associations between early life exposure to such an episode and lung growth trajectories.

LIFECYCLE is a significant and visionary project to establish an integrated set of long-term world-wide cohorts and clinical trials, which can be investigated and compared across the full life of cohort participants.

Recent studies have demonstrated that some children with acute bronchiolitis can be successfully managed using home oxygen therapy.

The aim of this study was to document the likely interpretative effects of changing from commonly used current spirometry reference equations to the GLI2012...

Cystic fibrosis (CF) lung disease commences early in the disease progression and is the most common cause of mortality.

We aimed to ascertain the fit of the European Respiratory Society Global Lung Initiative 2012 reference ranges to contemporary Australasian spirometric data.

Prediction bias in spirometry reference equations can arise from combining equations for different age groups,...

In infants and children with chronic respiratory disease, hypoxia is a potential risk of aircraft travel.

Advances in statistical modelling have allowed the creation of smoothly changing spirometry reference ranges that apply across a wide age range and better...
