Persistent activation of interlinked type 2 airway epithelial gene networks in sputum-derived cells from aeroallergen-sensitized symptomatic asthmatics

Our findings provide new insight into the molecular mechanisms operative at baseline in the airway mucosa in atopic asthmatic with natural aeroallergen exposure

Effect of posture on lung ventilation distribution and associations with structure in children with cystic fibrosis

Background: We assessed the effect of posture on ventilation distribution and the impact on associations with structural lung disease.

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"

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

The AREST CF experience in biobanking - More than just tissues, tubes and time.

Research to further improve outcomes for people with CF is dependent upon well characterised, archived and accessible clinical specimens.

Early lung disease in infants and preschool children with cystic fibrosis: What have we learned and what should we do about it?

This review summarizes what we have learned about early lung disease in children with CF and discusses the implications for clinical practice and research

Chest imaging in cystic fibrosis studies: What counts, and can be counted?

The aim of this study is to characterize the role of currently available CT and MRI markers in clinical studies, and to discuss challenges with CF studies.

Air pollution during pregnancy and lung development in the child

Air pollution exposure has increased in recent years and there is evidence that exposure to particulate matter can lead to adverse respiratory outcomes.

Hypoxia and sterile inflammation in cystic fibrosis airways: Mechanisms and potential therapies

In this review, we consider recent evidence regarding hypoxia and sterile inflammation in cystic fibrosis airways

Ultra low dose CT screen-detected non-malignant incidental findings in the Western Australian Asbestos Review Programme

The prevalence of LDCT-detected indeterminate lung nodules in 906 individuals with significant asbestos exposure was 8.5%, lower than many other CT studies
