Showing results for "early lung health"
The Kids for Child Health Research will join more than 50 scientists from 36 research institutions around the world to improve early nutrition
Irritability is a common trait seen in children. While expressions of irritability are part of normal development, servere irritability is a known indicator of child and adolescent mental health problems.
For pregnant Aboriginal women living in WA’s East Pilbara, significant issues systematically impede their pregnancy journey and a safe and healthy start to life for their babies.
Non-invasive and sensitive clinical endpoints are needed to monitor onset and progression of early lung disease in children with cystic fibrosis (CF). We compared lung clearance index (LCI), FEV1, functional and structural lung magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) outcomes in Swiss children with CF diagnosed following newborn screening.
Congratulations to respiratory health clinician-researcher Dr Pamela Laird, who has won Allied Health Researcher of the Year at the WA Excellence in Allied Health Awards.
Seven leading The Kids Research Institute Australia researchers have been awarded Fellowships from the National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC).
Alcohol consumption in pregnancy can affect genome regulation in the developing offspring but results have been contradictory. We employed a physiologically relevant murine model of short-term moderate prenatal alcohol exposure resembling common patterns of alcohol consumption in pregnancy in humans.
There is increasing evidence that the assessment of ventilation distribution using the multiple breath washout (MBW) technique is sensitive to changes in disease status of children with cystic fibrosis.
Self-regulatory difficulties in infants (difficulty soothing and sleeping) tells us that the infant may be at risk of developing a range of physical and mental health difficulties in later life.
Climate change models predict that atmospheric carbon dioxide [CO2] levels will be between 700 and 900 ppm within the next 80yrs. In this study we aimed to assess the respiratory structure and function effects of long-term exposure to 890ppm CO2 from preconception to adulthood using a mouse model.
