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"
Research
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.
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.
Research
Air pollution during pregnancy and lung development in the childAir pollution exposure has increased in recent years and there is evidence that exposure to particulate matter can lead to adverse respiratory outcomes.
Research
Clinical investigation of respiratory system admittance in preschool childrenWe compared the ability of Ars, to standard oscillatory outcomes, to determine respiratory disease and differentiate responses to inhaled bronchial challenges.

Air Trapping on Chest CT Is Associated with Worse Ventilation Distribution in Infants with Cystic FibrosisIn school-aged children with cystic fibrosis (CF) structural lung damage assessed using chest CT is associated with abnormal ventilation distribution.

Treatment with inhaled aerosolised ethanol reduces viral load and potentiates macrophage responses in an established influenza mouse modelTreatment options for viral lung infections are currently limited. We aimed to explore the safety and efficacy of inhaled ethanol in an influenza-infection mouse model.

BANK CF: The Respiratory Centre BIOBANKThe Australian Respiratory Early Surveillance Team for Cystic Fibrosis (AREST CF) program has grown from an early surveillance program initiated in Perth in 1999, which performed bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) to evaluate pulmonary infection and inflammation, as well as infant lung function testing.
