Reports and Findings
Research
Prevalence of allergic sensitization, hay fever, eczema, and asthma in a longitudinal birth cohortThe aim of this study was to longitudinally assess the prevalence of allergic sensitization, asthma, eczema and hay fever from infancy to adulthood
Research
Genome-wide association and HLA fine-mapping studies identify risk loci and genetic pathways underlying allergic rhinitisGWAS analyses of allergic sensitization against inhalant allergens and nonallergic rhinitis suggested shared genetic mechanisms across rhinitis-related traits
Research
Child-parent agreement on alcohol-related parenting: Opportunities for prevention of alcohol-related harmParent non-supply of alcohol and disapproval of use were most important in terms of associations with ever drinking
Research
Prevalence of Mental Disorders Among Children and Adolescents of Parents with Self-Reported Mental Health ProblemsThis paper provides Australian population-level estimates of the prevalence of parental self-reported lifetime mental disorders and past 12 month mental disorders in their children
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
Research
Airway function in infancy is linked to airflow measurements and respiratory symptoms from childhood into adulthoodLung airflow measurements track from birth into early adulthood, suggesting a permanent and stable airway framework is laid down in the antenatal period
Research
IgE and T-cell responses to house dust mite allergen componentsRecent studies with synthetic peptides representing allergens and non-allergenic house dust mite proteins now offer new research avenues on HDM induced immune responses
Research
Conserved temporal ordering of promoter activation implicates common mechanisms governing the immediate early response across cell types and stimuliWe obtain a set of 57 candidate immediate early genes possessing promoters that consistently drive a rapid but transient increase in expression over time
Research
CrossTalk opposing view: Mucosal acidification does not drive early progressive lung disease in cystic fibrosisWhether airway mucosal acidification drives early progressive lung disease is controversial
Research
Differential Sensitivity of Human Hepatocellular Carcinoma Xenografts to an IGF-II Neutralizing Antibody May Involve Activated STAT3These findings implicate the activation of STAT3 as one pathway that may mediate resistance to IGF-II-targeted therapy in HCC
