Correlation of ultra-low dose chest CT findings with physiologic measures of asbestosis

This study aimed to determine the relationship between ULDCT-ILD and measures of pulmonary function in an asbestos-exposed population.

Variants associated with HHIP expression have sex-differential effects on lung function

Lung function is highly heritable and differs between the sexes throughout life. However, little is known about sex-differential genetic effects on lung function. We aimed to conduct the first genome-wide genotype-by-sex interaction study on lung function to identify genetic effects that differ between males and females.

Association between diesel engine exhaust exposure and lung function in Australian gold miners

Diesel engine exhaust exposures were higher in underground miners and had a negative association with their lung function over a single 12-h shift

ERS/ATS technical standard on interpretive strategies for routine lung function tests

Appropriate interpretation of pulmonary function tests (PFTs) involves the classification of observed values as within/outside the normal range based on a reference population of healthy individuals, integrating knowledge of physiological determinants of test results into functional classifications and integrating patterns with other clinical data to estimate prognosis.

Infection, inflammation,and lung function decline in infants with cystic fibrosis

Better understanding of evolution of lung function in infants with cystic fibrosis...

Early life exposure to coal mine fire smoke emissions and altered lung function in young children

Infant exposure to coal mine fire emissions could be associated with long-term impairment of lung reactance

Lung structural and functional impairments in young children with cystic fibrosis diagnosed following newborn screening – A nationwide observational study

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. 

The Impact of Modulator therapy from Early life on lung health trajectories in Cystic Fibrosis (TIME-CF)

Cystic fibrosis is an inherited condition that results in chronic lung disease. In recent years, a new type of medication called CFTR modulators has become available.

Investment in child and adolescent health and development: key messages from Disease Control Priorities, 3rd Edition

The realisation of human potential for development requires age-specific investment throughout the 8000 days of childhood and adolescence
