Breastfeeding, lung volumes and alveolar size at school-age
BACKGROUND Previous studies found larger lung volumes at school-age in formerly breastfed children, with some studies suggesting an effect modification by maternal asthma. We wanted to explore this further in children who had undergone extensive lung function testing. The current study aimed to assess whether breastfeeding was associated with larger lung volumes and, if so, whether all compartm...
متن کاملBreastfeeding and lung function at school age: does maternal asthma modify the effect?
RATIONALE The evidence for an effect of breastfeeding on lung function is conflicting, in particular whether the effect is modified by maternal asthma. OBJECTIVES To explore the association between breastfeeding and school-age lung function. METHODS In the Leicestershire Cohort Studies we assessed duration of breastfeeding (not breastfed, ≤3 months, 4-6 months, and >6 months), other exposur...
متن کاملEffect of breastfeeding duration on lung function at age 10 years: a prospective birth cohort study.
INTRODUCTION The protective effects of breastfeeding on early life respiratory infections are established, but there have been conflicting reports on protection from asthma in late childhood. The association of breastfeeding duration and lung function was assessed in 10-year-old children. METHODS In the Isle of Wight birth cohort (n = 1456), breastfeeding practices and duration were prospecti...
متن کاملLung function from infancy to school age in cystic fibrosis.
The aim was to investigate pulmonary mechanics in patients with cystic fibrosis during infancy and again in early childhood to see whether infant tests predicted status at school age. Plethysmographic measurements of thoracic gas volume and airways resistance were made in 29 patients at 6 months and again at 5 years 10 months. Maximum flow at functional residual capacity was measured during inf...
متن کاملNeonatal cerebral infarction and visual function at school age.
OBJECTIVE To assess various aspects of visual function at school age in children with neonatal cerebral infarction. PATIENTS AND METHODS Sixteen children born at term, who had cerebral infarction of perinatal onset on neonatal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) were assessed using a battery of visual tests. This included measures of crowding acuity (Cambridge Crowding Cards), stereopsis (TNO te...
