A randomised, controlled clinical trial of narrowband UVB phototherapy for clinically isolated syndrome: The PhoCIS study

This study provides a basis for further studies to determine if there are any benefits of the therapeutic effects of narrowband UVB radiation on MS progression

Asthma is responsible for considerable global morbidity and health-care costs. Substantial progress was made against key outcomes such as hospital admissions with asthma and mortality in the 1990s and early 2000s, but little improvement has been observed

We aim to provide our view of where we are and where we need to go as a community of clinicians and researchers who tackle the public health problem of asthma.

Assessment of p.Phe508del-CFTR functional restoration in pediatric primary cystic fibrosis airway epithelial cells

This study assessed an alternative approach, using a small scale halide assay that can be adapted for a personalized high throughput setting to analyze CFTR function of pAEC.

Accumulation mode particles and LPS exposure induce TLR-4 dependent and independent inflammatory responses in the lung

We aimed to delineate the effects of LPS and AMP on airway inflammation, and potential contribution to airway disease by measuring airway inflammatory responses

UV Irradiation of Skin Enhances Glycolytic Flux and Reduces Migration Capabilities in Bone Marrow–Differentiated Dendritic Cells

A systemic immunosuppression follows UV irradiation of the skin of humans and mice.

The bioenergetics of inflammation: insights into obesity and type 2 diabetes

Diabetes mellitus is one of the most common chronic metabolic disorders worldwide, and its incidence in Asian countries is alarmingly high.

An exposome perspective: Early-life events and immune development in a changing world

Here we review the historical origins of exposome research and define a new concept, the metaexposome

Mess + fun = future STEM stars

Strawberries, slime and sliced bread are being used as tools to educate and inspire the next generation of researchers, as part of the The Kids Discovery Centre Schools & Outreach Program.

Pioneering work in disease diagnosis

The Kids Research Institute Australia is playing a key role within a global team of experts whose work is transforming efforts to tackle a potentially deadly disease that disproportionately affects Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children in remote Australia.

Development of a web-based resource for parents to support youth mental health: An exploratory sequential mixed methods approach

There is a lack of digital gatekeeper resources developed for parents to assist them in recognising and responding to mental health problems in their children and adolescents. We aimed to address this by exploring parents' mental health information needs, and to iteratively develop and design a resource incorporating their feedback.
