Key paediatric messages from Amsterdam

Key messages from the abstracts presented at the European Respiratory Society International Congress

Changes in the FEV/FVC ratio during childhood and adolescence: an intercontinental study

In children, the ratio of forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV₁) to forced vital capacity (FVC) is reportedly constant or falls linearly with age...

Vitamin A and bronchopulmonary dysplasia: the next steps

Preterm infants are often vitamin A deficient, and vitamin A has functions that could mitigate the processes that lead to bronchopulmonary dysplasia. Therefore, supplementation of preterm infants with vitamin A to reduce the risk of bronchopulmonary dysplasia makes inherent sense.

Investigating the relationship between environmental factors and respiratory health outcomes in school children using the forced oscillation technique

The significance of both indoor and outdoor sources of air pollution and effect modifiers such as green space and heating require further investigation

Respiratory impedance and bronchodilator responsiveness in healthy children aged 2-13 years

There is limited information on changes in FOT outcomes in healthy children beyond the preschool years and the level of bronchodilator responsiveness (BDR)...

Expiratory flow limitation and breathing strategies in overweight adolescents during submaximal exercise

Young people who are overweight/obese are more likely to display expFL during submaximal exercise compared with children of healthy weight.

Pulmonary diffusing capacity in healthy Caucasian children

Previous studies of pulmonary diffusing capacity in children differed greatly in methodologies; numbers of subjects evaluated, and were performed prior to...
