General Movement Assessment in infancy and later cognitive outcomes: A systematic review and meta-analysis

To evaluate whether the General Movement Assessment in infancy is associated with later cognitive outcomes from early childhood through adulthood.

Understanding parents' perspectives of repeated blinded continuous glucose monitoring in children with early-stage type 1 diabetes and an affected first-degree relative

To explore the lived experiences of parents of children at risk of type 1 diabetes undergoing repeated blinded continuous glucose monitoring. Since 2021, children with persistent islet autoimmunity in the Environmental Determinants of Islet Autoimmunity study have been invited to participate in a sub-study involving blinded Dexcom G6 CGM.

Tracking Health Related Quality of Life From Diagnosis to Follow-Up Among Australian Children With Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia

Acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) is one of the most treatable forms of paediatric cancer; however, there is a substantial burden of treatment-related toxicities (TRTs). In addition, the long-term changes in children's health-related quality of life (HRQoL) due to toxic treatments are not well understood.

Building genetic healthcare together: an Australian co-production three-phase mixed-methods research protocol with people with intellectual disability

People with intellectual disability face significant barriers to accessing genetic healthcare, including during appointments. Many adults with intellectual disability are denied opportunities to discuss genetic testing that could improve their health and well-being.

Early life exposure to an episode of extreme air pollution and lung function later in childhood: the Hazelwood early life follow-up (ELF) study

Children are particularly vulnerable to air pollution, but the effects of early life exposure to acute, high-intensity pollution on later lung function remain poorly understood. We assessed the association between prenatal or infant exposure to fire-related fine particulate matter (PM2.5) from a six-week coal mine fire and subsequent lung function.

Under Control? Mouse Models of Heat Exposure: A Systematic Review of Experimental Design and Methodology

Mouse models are widely used to study heat-related physiological responses as they provide insights relevant to human health. However, species differences (including nocturnal behavior) and standard housing below the thermoneutral zone (TNZ; 26°C-34°C) can confound comparisons. This systematic review evaluates methodologies, including housing temperatures, used in mouse heat-exposure studies published over the past 4 years.
