The global lung function initiative (GLI) network: Bringing the world’s respiratory reference values togetherThe Global Lung Function Initiative (GLI) Network has become the largest resource for reference values for routine lung function testing ever assembled.
Research
Inhaled corticosteroids to improve lung function in children (aged 6–12 years) who were born very preterm (PICSI): a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trialDespite the substantial burden of lung disease throughout childhood in children who were born very preterm, there are no evidence-based interventions to improve lung health beyond the neonatal period. We tested the hypothesis that inhaled corticosteroid improves lung function in this population.
