Preterm infants have immature control of breathing and impaired pulmonary gas exchange. We hypothesized that infants with bronchopulmonary dysplasia…
Preterm birth is the leading cause of perinatal morbidity and mortality and is associated with adverse developmental and long-term health outcomes, i…
A new study is helping to identify treatment options to improve the lung function of premature babies, after it was determined survivors of preterm b…
Preterm birth and subsequent neonatal ventilatory treatment disrupts development of the hypoxic ventilatory response (HVR). An attenuated HVR has bee…
Preterm birth is a global public health problem with a significant burden on the individuals affected. The study aimed to extend current research on…
Having a preterm (<37 weeks' gestation) birth may increase a woman's risk of early mortality. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women have higher…
Laboratory models provide an important tool in helping to understand the cellular and molecular drivers of respiratory disease. Many animal models ex…
Abnormalities of the airway smooth muscle (ASM) layer in asthma may develop before birth. We hypothesize that antenatal inflammation causes physiolog…
Parent-infant interactions provide the foundation for the development of infant socioemotional wellbeing. Preterm birth can have a substantial, and o…
Although preterm birth is associated with later deficits in lung function, there is a paucity of information on geographical differences and whether…
