Authors: McHugh D.
Abstract: This study aims to understand how body composition (the balance of fat and muscle) in babies born moderately to late preterm affects their brain development and later outcomes. We hypothesise that these babies will have more body fat and less muscle compared to babies born at full term, and that having more muscle and less fat will be associated to larger brain size and better development. To investigate this, we will measure babies’ body composition, growth, blood hormone levels, and brain size on MRI scans around their due date, and then follow their development at 4 months and 2 years of age. Comparing these findings with babies born at full term will help us see how early growth patterns influence long-term health and learning. The study hopes to identify early markers that can guide care to support healthier growth and development in preterm and growth-restricted infants.2025-09-11T00:00:00ZThe Prevalence of Autism and ADHD in Adolescents with ME/CFSChau T.https://repository.monashhealth.org/monashhealthjspui/handle/1/569312025-12-24T00:55:21Z2025-05-27T00:00:00ZTitle: The Prevalence of Autism and ADHD in Adolescents with ME/CFS
Authors: Chau T.
Abstract: Community members and clinicians anecdotally report that many individuals living with ME/CFS identify as, or are thought to be, neurodivergent. However, there are no published prevalence estimates of autism and ADHD in ME/CFS across the lifespan. This study seeks to estimate the prevalence of autism and ADHD in adolescents aged 10-19 years who have been diagnosed with ME/CFS and who have attended the outpatient ME/CFS clinics at either the Royal Children's Hospital or Monash Children's Hospital in Melbourne, Australia.2025-05-27T00:00:00ZThe AIRTiME Study: Assessing Infant Respirations and Tidal-volume with Manometry Evaluation, an observational, prospective cohort studyBlank D.https://repository.monashhealth.org/monashhealthjspui/handle/1/569332025-12-24T00:55:21Z2025-08-05T00:00:00ZTitle: The AIRTiME Study: Assessing Infant Respirations and Tidal-volume with Manometry Evaluation, an observational, prospective cohort study
Authors: Blank D.
Abstract: The purpose of this study is to assess if the movement of the CPAP pressure meter while the participant is breathing can be used to determine the size of the breath. We will compare the movement to the amount of air your baby breathes, measured by the breathing monitor attached to the CPAP tubing. We currently do not have information about whether there is a link between the movement of the meter and the amount of air the participant is breathing, if there is this could be important information for babies who need breathing support at birth.2025-08-05T00:00:00ZFeeding practices in infants and young children with Cystic Fibrosis: An Australian survey of caregivers.Miles C.https://repository.monashhealth.org/monashhealthjspui/handle/1/569322025-12-24T00:55:21Z2025-08-28T00:00:00ZTitle: Feeding practices in infants and young children with Cystic Fibrosis: An Australian survey of caregivers.
Authors: Miles C.
Abstract: The aim of this cross-sectional national survey is to explore the early life feeding practices of infants and cwCF in Australia, with a focus on exclusive and partial breastfeeding rates throughout infancy, determinants to breastfeeding cessation, infant formula introduction and the timing and practices associated with transition to solid foods.2025-08-28T00:00:00Z
