In infants and children with chronic respiratory disease, hypoxia is a potential risk of aircraft travel.
Advances in statistical modelling have allowed the creation of smoothly changing spirometry reference ranges that apply across a wide age range and better...
We investigated predictors of nasopharyngeal carriage in Australian Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal children.
The aim of our study was to determine the contribution of secular trends and sample size to lung function reference equations, and establish the number...
Respiratory function impacts on musical expression for wind/brass (W/B) musicians. Investigation of musicians' respiratory health to date has rarely...
In children, the ratio of forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV₁) to forced vital capacity (FVC) is reportedly constant or falls linearly with age...
Playing a wind or brass (W/B) instrument is considered a strenuous activity for the respiratory system.
Sleep 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.
The nasal epithelium is the primary point of contact for inhaled respiratory viruses such as rhinovirus, respiratory syncytial virus, influenza, and coronavirus, among others. In order to establish infection, these viruses must engage their respective receptors located on host epithelial cells and begin replication.
Despite the volume of accumulating knowledge from prospective Aboriginal cohort studies, longitudinal data describing developmental trajectories in health and well-being is limited.
