House dust mite induced lung inflammation does not alter circulating vitamin D levels

We hypothesized that allergic inflammation decreases the level of circulating 25(OH)D and tested this using a mice model of house dust mite (HDM) induced...

Early respiratory infection is associated with reduced spirometry in children with cystic fibrosis

We hypothesized that the presence of these markers of cystic fibrosis lung disease in the first 2 years of life would be associated with reduced lung...

Early cystic fibrosis lung disease

This paper is about lung disease in patients with cyctic Fibrosis and prevention strategies to slow the onset of lung disease.

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
