Group A streptococcal pharyngitis: Immune responses involved in bacterial clearance and GAS-associated immunopathologies

Innate and adaptive host immune responses are fundamental for defense against streptococcal pharyngitis and are central to the clinical manifestation of disease.

Research

Foetal growth restriction in mice modifies postnatal airway responsiveness in an age and sex-dependent manner

Our data demonstrate changes in airway responsiveness as a result of intrauterine growth restriction that could influence susceptibility to asthma development

Research

Endocrine and metabolic consequences due to restrictive carbohydrate diets in children with type 1 diabetes: An illustrative case series

The promotion of a low carbohydrate diet in media is in contrast to published pediatric diabetes guidelines that endorse a balanced diet from a variety of foods

Research

Cohort profile: Pregnancy and childhood epigenetics (PACE) consortium

Currently, DNA methylation is the most studied epigenetic phenomenon in large populations

Research

Investment in child and adolescent health and development: key messages from Disease Control Priorities, 3rd Edition

The realisation of human potential for development requires age-specific investment throughout the 8000 days of childhood and adolescence.

Research

Temporal trends and socioeconomic differences in acute respiratory infection hospitalisations in children: an intercountry comparison of birth cohort studies

Admissions for ARI were higher in Western Australia and displayed greater socioeconomic disparities than England and Scotland, where ARI rates are increasing

Research

Impact of heart disease on maternal, fetal and neonatal outcomes in a low-resource setting

Occult maternal heart disease may be responsible for a substantial proportion of adverse pregnancy outcomes in low-resource settings

Research

New therapeutic opportunities from dissecting the pre-B leukemia bone marrow microenvironment

We provide evidence that targeting leukemia-induced bone loss is a therapeutic strategy for pre-B ALL

Research

Maternal high fat diet compromises survival and modulates lung development of offspring, and impairs lung function of dams

While maternal high fat diet compromised litter survival, it also promoted somatic and lung growth (increased lung volume) in the offspring

Research

ERS technical standard on bronchial challenge testing: pathophysiology and methodology of indirect airway challenge testing

Assessment of airway hyperresponsiveness are valuable tools to understand and to monitor airway function and to characterise the underlying asthma phenotype to guide therapy
