The CASTLE study is focused on rolandic epilepsy, which is the most common type of childhood epilepsy and affects about one-sixth of all children with epilepsy in the UK.
Throughout the CASTLE study, we鈥檒l be working with children, parents, doctors and nurses to choose the best ways to measure health and quality of life for children with epilepsy. The research will also include talking to parents and children about their experiences in relation to sleep, taking medication, learning and how taking part in the study has impacted on them.

The aim of the CF START trial is determine the safest and most effective way to treat infants diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis (CF) with antibiotics. At the moment infants in the UK are prescribed an antibiotic, usually flucloxacillin, every day to prevent infection with a bacteria (bug) called Staphylococcus aureus (SA).
Although this approach appears to help prevent SA infection, there is a worry that it may make earlier infection with other bugs, such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PsA) more likely.
This trial is designed to test if infants with CF are more likely to get an earlier infection from PsA if they are taking flucloxacillin on a daily basis (鈥淧revent and Treat鈥) or Antibiotics in a more targeted manner (鈥淒etect and Treat鈥).
