Early Moves: a protocol for a population-based prospective cohort study to establish general movements as an early biomarker of cognitive impairment in infantsThe current diagnostic pathways for cognitive impairment rarely identify babies at risk before 2 years of age. Very early detection and timely targeted intervention has potential to improve outcomes for these children and support them to reach their full life potential. Early Moves aims to identify early biomarkers, including general movements (GMs), for babies at risk of cognitive impairment, allowing early intervention within critical developmental windows to enable these children to have the best possible start to life.
Research
Development of the breastfed infant oral microbiome over the first two years of life in the BLOSOM CohortAcquisition and development of the oral microbiome are dynamic processes that occur over early life. This study aimed to characterize the temporal development of the oral microbiome of predominantly breastfed infants during the first two years of life.
Research
Relationship between environmental exposures in children and adult lung disease: the case for outdoor exposuresThere is a growing understanding that chronic respiratory diseases in adults have their origins in early life
Research
Early pulmonary inflammation and lung damage in children with cystic fibrosisAirway inflammation and infection are present from early in life, often before children are symptomatic.
Research
OMIP 076: High-dimensional immunophenotyping of murine T-cell, B-cell, and antibody secreting cell subsetsThere is now considerable evidence demonstrating that both prenatal and postnatal exposure to particular classes of microbial stimuli can provide beneficial signals during early life immune development, resulting in the protection against future inflammatory disease.
Research
Airway function in infancy is linked to airflow measurements and respiratory symptoms from childhood into adulthoodLung airflow measurements track from birth into early adulthood, suggesting a permanent and stable airway framework is laid down in the antenatal period
Research
Hospital admission for infection during early childhood influences developmental vulnerabilities at age 5 yearsThis study demonstrates a pervasive effect of early life infections that require hospital admission on multiple aspects of early child development
