Showing results for "lung disease preterm"
Standards and consensus recommendations are presented for manufacturers, clinicians, operators, and researchers
Over the last 40 years medical advances in the care of newborn babies has resulted in more children surviving very early “preterm” birth than ever before.
Our findings illustrate the vulnerabilities of children born to foreign women from low and middle-income countries
A public health campaign to raise awareness about the dangers of chronic wet cough in Aboriginal children is helping to improve detection, diagnosis and management of the condition.
Air pollution exposure has increased in recent years and there is evidence that exposure to particulate matter can lead to adverse respiratory outcomes.
Our studies show that Vegf-d promotes oedema in response to hyperoxia in mice and support the hypothesis that VEGF-D signalling promotes vascular leak in human HALI.

The aim of the present study was to develop reference equations for oscillometry outcomes in South African children and adolescents.
