The presence of pleural plaques on radiologic imaging does not confer additional increase in the risk of lung cancer
To determine the association of exposure to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) with lung function and pH of exhaled breath condensate (EBC) in Mexican...
The extent of lung hypoplasia impacts the survival and severity of morbidities associated with congenital diaphragmatic hernia.
Induced sputum to detect lung pathogens in young children with cystic fibrosis Summary. Introduction: Induced sputum sampling holds promise as a
Whereas asthma was rare in the late 1800s and early 1900s, the marked increase in its incidence and prevalence since the 1960s points to substantial gene ×...
The earliest respiratory function assessments, within or close to the neonatal period, consistently show correlations with lung function and with the development of asthma into adulthood. Measurements of lung function in infancy reflect the in utero period of lung development, and if early enough, show little influence of postnatal environmental exposures.
Certain glutathione S-transferase genotypes may have protective effects against the long-term deficits in lung function associated with in utero tobacco exposure
we aimed to determine the sensitivity and specificity of induced sputum with and without airway clearance techniques to detect lower airway pathogens in kids.
Though exposure to air pollution has a detrimental effect on respiratory health, few studies have examined the association between elemental carbon exposure...
Four outstanding researchers from the Wal-yan Centre - Professor André Schultz, Professor Stephen Stick, Rebecca Watson and Michael Beaven - have been presented with prestigious awards in acknowledgement of their research aimed at improving the lives of children with respiratory illness.
