We won't find what we don't look for: Identifying barriers and enablers of chronic wet cough in Aboriginal childrenKey barriers to effective management of chronic wet cough are limited training in chronic wet cough management combined with competing complexities
Research
Novel end points for clinical trials in young children with cystic fibrosisCystic fibrosis (CF) lung disease commences early in the disease progression and is the most common cause of mortality.
Research
The impact of respiratory viruses on lung health after preterm birthThe aim of this review is to highlight the risk factors that may contribute to increased susceptibility to viral respiratory infections among preterm infants
Respiratory illness accounts for 12% of the age-standardised gap in mortality between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians.
Research
Associations between respiratory and vascular function in early childhoodThe link between respiratory and vascular health is well documented in adult populations. Impaired lung function is consistently associated with thicker arteries and higher incidence of cardiovascular disease. However, there are limited data on this relationship in young children and the studies that exist have focussed on populations at high risk of cardiorespiratory morbidity.
Research
Air trapping in early cystic fibrosis lung disease-Does CT tell the full story?Mosaic attenuation on expiratory chest computed tomography (CT) is common in early life cystic fibrosis (CF) and often referred to as "air trapping"
Please contact the team early (at the stage of project design and budgeting) to ensure the most appropriate physiological test is selected with adequate funding.
