Showing results for "preterm birth lungs"
Unsedated infant lung function measures of tidal breathing, MBW, and eNO are feasible in a semi-rural African setting
Infant lung function (ILF) testing may provide useful information about lung growth and susceptibility to respiratory disease.
Researchers from The Kids Research Institute Australia who are working to better understand the serious threat climate change poses to children’s health have led a study revealing the dramatically heightened risk of preterm births as the world gets hotter.
One in eight children have asthma, a chronic disease of the airways in the lungs. It results in shortness of breath, chest tightness, wheezing and coughing.
A The Kids for Child Health Research study has uncovered a new link between vitamin D levels and asthma.
The Western Australian Epithelial Research Program (WAERP) biobank is undertaking a number of research projects intended to improve the understanding and preclinical assessment of therapeutics for respiratory conditions.
This review describes the evolution of bronchopulmonary dysplasia definitions, evaluates the benefits and limitations of each approach
This systematic review aimed to address gaps in our understanding of the association between congenital anomalies and cerebral palsy
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.
Neonatal sepsis remains one of the key challenges of neonatal medicine, and together with preterm birth, causes almost 50% of all deaths globally for children younger than 5 years. Compared with advances achieved for other serious neonatal and early childhood conditions globally, progress in reducing neonatal sepsis has been much slower, especially in low-resource settings that have the highest burden of neonatal sepsis morbidity and mortality.
