Research

Identification of genes differentially regulated by vitamin D deficiency that alter lung pathophysiology and inflammation in allergic airways disease

Vitamin D deficiency exacerbates house dust mite-induced inflammation and alterations in lung structure and function

Research

A systematic approach to multiple breath nitrogen washout test quality

The application of the systematic review improved inter-observer agreement but did not affect reported multiple breath washout outcomes

Research

Respiratory syncytial virus is present in the neonatal intensive care unit

The results suggest that though the risk for RSV in the NICU remains low, personnel clothing are contaminated with RSV-RNA and may have a role in transmission

Research

Baseline grey matter volume of non-transitioned "ultra high risk" for psychosis individuals with and without attenuated psychotic symptoms

Differences in regional GMV are discernible at an early stage of UHR and may be specific to individuals who have APS and psychopathology at follow-up

Research

Continuous active surveillance of adverse events following immunisation using SMS technology

Automated SMS-based reporting can facilitate sustainable, real-time, monitoring of adverse reactions and early identification of potential vaccine safety issues

Research

Why do psychiatric patients have higher cancer mortality rates when cancer incidence is the same or lower?

People with mental illness are no more likely than the general population to develop cancer but more likely to die of it

Research

Pulmonary delivery of cationic gold nanoparticles boost antigen-specific CD4+ T Cell Proliferation

Our findings demonstrate surface charge as a key parameter determining particle uptake by APC

Research

Extreme heat threatens the health of Australians

Heatwaves have serious health impacts and we need a better approach to prevention and management

Research

Multiple-breath washout outcomes are sensitive to inflammation and infection in children with cystic fibrosis

The lung clearance index may be a useful surveillance tool for monitoring the presence and extent of lower airway inflammation and infection
