Very preterm babies at risk of declining lung function throughout childhood

A The Kids Research Institute Australia study published in The Lancet Child & Adolescent Health has found that survivors of very preterm birth face declining lung function

Epithelial Mesenchymal Transition in Respiratory Disease: Fact or Fiction

In this translational review, the mechanisms, roles, and impact of epithelial-mesenchymal transition in chronic lung diseases are discussed

Draft Genome Sequences of Three Pseudomonas fluorescens Strains Isolated from Marine Sponges Harvested off the West Coast of Ireland

Three Pseudomonas sp. strains isolated from marine sponges have shown potential quorum sensing inhibition activity

Structural determinants of long term functional outcomes in young children with cystic fibrosis

Chest CT identifies children at an early age who have adverse long-term outcomes

Microbiome and Functional Analysis of a Traditional Food Process: Isolation of a Novel Species (Vibrio hibernica) With Industrial Potential

Vibrio hibernica is capable of metabolizing a unique carbohydrate profile at low temperatures

Changing Prevalence of Lower Airway Infections in Young Children with Cystic Fibrosis

Aspergillus species and P. aeruginosa are commonly present in the lower airways from infancy

Exposure to bile leads to the emergence of adaptive signaling variants in the opportunistic pathogen pseudomonas aeruginosa

Adaptive variants of P. aeruginosa that arise following long term bile exposure enables the emergence of ecologically competitive sub-populations

Single-breath washout and association with structural lung disease in children with cystic fibrosis

Acinar ventilation inhomogeneity measured by single-breath washout was not associated with structural lung disease on CT

CF derived scoring systems do not fully describe the range of structural changes seen on CT scans in PCD

Structural changes identified on CT scans in primary ciliary dyskinesia are not identical to those previously described in cystic fibrosis patients
