Mannitol challenge testing for asthma in a community cohort of young adults

We aimed to quantify the diagnostic utility of mannitol challenge testing for asthma in a community cohort and a symptomatic wheezing subset of this cohort.

Determinants of early-life lung function in African infants

To assess the determinants of early lung function in African infants.

A systematic approach to multiple breath nitrogen washout test quality

The application of the systematic review improved inter-observer agreement but did not affect reported multiple breath washout outcomes

Lung Clearance Index and Structural Lung Disease on Computed Tomography in Early Cystic Fibrosis

Lung clearance index may be a useful surveillance tool to monitor structural lung disease in preschool and school-age children with cystic fibrosis

Impact of lung disease on respiratory impedance in young children with cystic fibrosis

The present study investigated whether lung function measured by forced oscillation technique would be impaired in the presence of infection,...

Global Lung Function Initiative reference values for multiple breath washout indices

Multiple breath washout is a lung function test based on tidal breathing that assesses lung volume and ventilation distribution. The aim of this analysis was to use the Global Lung Function Initiative methodology to develop all-age reference equations for the multiple breath washout indices lung clearance index and functional residual capacity.

Objective measures of bronchial hyper-responsiveness for asthma diagnosis in young children: Mannitol and exercise challenge testing

Graham Shannon Hall Simpson BAppSci PhD CRFS FANZSRS FThorSoc FERS BMedSci (hons), PhD Honorary Research Associate Head, Strong Beginnings Research,

Personalised, machine learning based prediction of asthma in children

This study aims to show that asthma and allergies in individuals can be predicted before it occurs based on individual family history and information on the early environment.

Predicting long term lung health outcomes in young adults born very preterm (WALHIP 19 year old follow-up)

This study will conduct a detailed lung health assessment in a follow-up of a group of preterm individuals at 19 years of age.

Preterm Paediatric Inhaled Corticosteroids Intervention (PICSI)

Understanding if ongoing inflammation in the lungs contributes to the poor lung health experienced by some children who were born preterm.
