Assessment of early bronchiectasis in young children with cystic fibrosis is dependent on lung volume

The aim of this study was to determine whether assessment of early CT scan-detected bronchiectasis in young children with cystic fibrosis (CF) depends on...

Chest computed tomography: a validated surrogate endpoint of cystic fibrosis lung disease?

Clinical trials for the treatment of cystic fibrosis (CF) lung disease are important to test and optimise new therapeutic interventions.

Distribution of Early Structural Lung Changes due to Cystic Fibrosis Detected with Chest Computed Tomography

To examine the distribution of early structural lung changes in clinically stable infants and young children with cystic fibrosis using chest computed...

Novel end points for clinical trials in young children with cystic fibrosis

Cystic fibrosis (CF) lung disease commences early in the disease progression and is the most common cause of mortality.

Progression of early structural lung disease in young children with cystic fibrosis assessed using CT

Cross-sectional studies implicate neutrophilic inflammation and pulmonary infection as risk factors for early structural lung disease in infants and young...

Suppression of adrenomedullin contributes to vascular leakage and altered epithelial repair during asthma

The anti-inflammatory peptide, adrenomedullin (AM), and its cognate receptor are expressed in lung tissue, but its pathophysiological significance in airway...

Hypoglycemia does not change the threshold for arousal from sleep in adolescents with type 1 diabetes

In adolescents with type 1 diabetes, hypoglycemia does not impair arousal from slow-wave sleep induced by an external auditory stimulus.

Defining the pediatric response to SARS-CoV-2 variants

The global population has been severely affected by the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, however, with older age identified as a risk factor, children have been underprioritized. This article discusses the factors contributing to the less severe response observed in children following infection with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), including, differing viral entry receptor expression and immune responses.

Genome Sequence of a Lytic Staphylococcus aureus Bacteriophage Isolated from Breast Milk

We identified a double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) bacteriophage appearing to belong to Herelleviridae, genus Kayvirus. The bacteriophage, Biyabeda-mokiny 1, was isolated from breast milk using a clinical isolate of Staphylococcus aureus.
