An Australian-developed vaccine that's been trialed in Perth has been found to produce a strong immune response against the H5N1 bird flu virus.
Perth researchers have begun a trial to test the effectiveness of a new vaccine to protect against the potentially deadly bird flu.
Western Australia has joined a major international study that could significantly change the treatment of asthma in children.
The CIRCA DIEM study is a multicentre, prospective, open, blinded end-point (PROBE) parallel controlled study which aims to compare long term neuro-developmental outcomes of premature babies cared for in a cycled environment to premature babies who receive routine care in a non-cycled environment.
Healthy lungs help you to breathe better. This means you can sleep better, as well as play sports, run and walk without being short winded.
Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) devices have demonstrated efficacy in adults and more recently in youths and older adults with type 1 diabetes. In adults with type 1 diabetes, the use of real-time CGM compared with intermittently scanned CGM was associated with improved glycemic control, but there are limited data available for youths.
Handedness has been studied for association with language-related disorders because of its link with language hemispheric dominance. No clear pattern has emerged, possibly because of small samples, publication bias, and heterogeneous criteria across studies.
Epigenetic modifications are associated with hepatic fat accumulation and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). However, few epigenetic modifications directly implicated in such processes have been identified during adolescence, a critical developmental window where physiological changes could influence future disease trajectory. To investigate the association between DNA methylation and NAFLD in adolescence, we undertook discovery and validation of novel methylation marks, alongside replication of previously reported marks.
Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is a chronic and incurable autoimmune disease, diagnosed in early childhood and managed initially in paediatric healthcare services. In many countries, including Australia, national audit data suggest that management and care of T1D, and consequently glycaemic control, are consistently poor.
Reading Disability is often characterized by difficulties in the phonology of the language. While the molecular mechanisms underlying it are largely undetermined, loci are being revealed by genome-wide association studies.
