Journal ArticleDOI

Prenatal maternal psychosocial stress and offspring's asthma and allergic disease: A systematic review and meta-analysis

TL;DR: Prenatal maternal stress may influence offspring's atopic risk through sustained cortisol secretion resulting from activation of the hypothalamic‐pituitary axis (HPA), leading to Th2‐biased cell differentiation in the foetus.
Journal ArticleDOI

Systematic review and meta‐analysis investigating breast feeding and childhood wheezing illness

TL;DR: This meta-analysis does not provide evidence that breast feeding is protective against wheezing illness in children aged 5 years and over, and the difference in the effects of breast feeding according to the nature of the wheeze highlights the importance of the heterogeneity of illness phenotypes.
Journal ArticleDOI

The health and wellbeing of Australian farmers: a longitudinal cohort study.

TL;DR: Remoteness is a significant factor in the mental health and wellbeing of farmers, more so than financial stress, rural factors and recent adverse events.
Journal ArticleDOI

Human renal fibroblasts modulate proximal tubule cell growth and transport via the IGF-I axis

TL;DR: IGF-I, an analog that binds to the IGF-I receptor but not to IGFBPs, provided a less potent stimulus for PTC growth compared with IGF-i, indicating that cell-associated IGFBP-3 facilitates the action of IGF- I on PTC.
