Infant respiratory infections and later respiratory hospitalisation in childhoodThe aim of this study was to use total-population based data on an otherwise healthy population of children to assess the relationship between early...

Prediction of peri-operative adverse respiratory events in children: The role of exhaled nitric oxide.Increased levels of exhaled nitric oxide (eNO) may be a more objective predictor in identifying children at higher risk of peri-operative adverse respiratory...

Early respiratory infection is associated with reduced spirometry in children with cystic fibrosisWe hypothesized that the presence of these markers of cystic fibrosis lung disease in the first 2 years of life would be associated with reduced lung...

A systematic approach to multiple breath nitrogen washout test qualityThe application of the systematic review improved inter-observer agreement but did not affect reported multiple breath washout outcomes

Rationale, design and methods for the 22 year follow-up of the Western Australian Pregnancy Cohort (Raine) StudyYoung adulthood is a critical life period for health and health behaviours.

The influence of sighing respirations on infant lung function measured using multiple breath washout gas mixing techniquesThere is substantial interest in studying lung function in infants, to better understand the early life origins of chronic lung diseases such as asthma.

Inhaled corticosteroids to improve lung function in children (aged 6–12 years) who were born very preterm (PICSI): a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trialDespite the substantial burden of lung disease throughout childhood in children who were born very preterm, there are no evidence-based interventions to improve lung health beyond the neonatal period. We tested the hypothesis that inhaled corticosteroid improves lung function in this population.

Effectiveness of current digital cognitive behavioural therapy for insomnia interventions for adolescents with insomnia symptoms: A systematic review and meta-analysisSleep problems occur in up to 20%-45% of adolescents. This systematic review and meta-analysis examined the effectiveness of digital sleep interventions, based on cognitive behavioural therapy for insomnia, for adolescents with insomnia symptoms. The objective was to synthesise and quantify, through meta-analyses, changes in sleep following completion of a digital sleep-based intervention.
