Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study was aimed to describe the cardiopulmonary profiles of adult patients with bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), comparing them to normative adult values. STUDY DESIGN This study presents a retrospective chart review of all BPD patients followed in the adult BPD clinic, identified from institutional and archive databases, born preterm at ≤33 weeks of estimated gestational age (EGA) between January 1980 and December 2000. RESULTS Forty-four patients with BPD (26.4 ± 2.7 weeks of EGA) were included. Average age at follow-up was 19 years. Majority (61.4%) of the patients had a diagnosis of asthma. Mean spirometry values were: first second of forced expiration (FEV1) 74.1%, forced vital capacity (FVC) 80.7%, and FEV1/FVC 82.5%. Echocardiography (ECHO) images were reviewed, left ventricular (LV) structure and performance did not differ between obstructive and nonobstructive pulmonary function test (PFT) groups, but values of LV longitudinal strain were 4.8% lower than expected normal for adults. Patients with obstructive PFT had additional decreased right ventricular (RV) function by ECHO. CONCLUSION BPD patients in this study were found to have a burden of cardiorespiratory alterations that persisted into adulthood, with RV performance abnormalities found among patients with obstructive PFT. KEY POINTS · BPD patients born at extremes of prematurity have cardiorespiratory alterations in adulthood.. · Among patients with obstructive lung function, subtle cardiac performance abnormalities were found.. · Future directions should include systematic follow-up of premature newborns with BPD..

Abstract
AIM This study assessed the self-reported health perception and use of health care by adults born very preterm before 30 weeks of gestation. METHODS The participants were part of a cross-sectional observational study that assessed the global health of young adults aged 18-29 years born very preterm in Quebec, Canada. Health perception was explored from 2011 to 2016 using the second Short-Form 36 Health Survey (SF-36v2), and objective health measures were obtained. Further in-depth open-ended questions were asked in 2018. RESULTS The 101 preterm subjects had similar perceptions of their health to 105 term-born controls, according to the SF-36v2, despite significantly more adverse health conditions. Their healthcare use was similar. However, the later in-depth questionnaire showed that 23% of 45 preterm subjects and 3% of 34 term-born subjects perceived their health as poorer than the general population. Major factors that could improve their respective health were lifestyle habits (74% vs. 81%) and eliminating specific adverse symptoms (52% vs. 27%). Only 10% of preterm individuals had been asked about their perinatal history by physicians. CONCLUSION Adults born very preterm said their health was poorer than the general population and identified specific factors that should be addressed during routine health monitoring.

Singer D, Thiede LP, Perez A. Adults Born Preterm: Long-Term Health Risks of Former Very Low Birth Weight Infants. DEUTSCHES ARZTEBLATT INTERNATIONAL 2021; 118:521-527. [PMID: 33734986 DOI: 10.3238/arztebl.m2021.0164] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/02/2020] [Revised: 07/02/2020] [Accepted: 02/22/2021] [Indexed: 11/27/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Advances in neonatology now enable increasing numbers of very low birth weight neonates (<1500 g) to survive into early adulthood and beyond. What are the implications for their long-term care? METHODS Selective literature search on the outcome of very low birth weight neonates in adulthood ("adults born preterm"). RESULTS Robust data are available on the pulmonary, metabolic, cardiovascular, renal, neurocognitive, sensory-visual, social-emotional, mental, reproductive, and musculoskeletal long-term risks. On the somatic level, elevated rates have been documented for asthma (odds Ratio [OR] 2.37), diabetes mellitus (OR 1.54), and chronic renal disease (hazard ratio [HR] 3.01), along with the cardiovascular and cerebrovascular sequelae of a tendency toward arterial hypertension. On the psychosocial level, the main findings are deficits in romantic partnerships (OR 0.72) and a lower reproduction rate (relative risk [RR] male/female 0.24/0.33). The affected women also have an elevated risk of preterm delivery. CONCLUSION A risk profile with both somatic and psychosocial aspects can be discerned for adults who were born prematurely, even if some of these risks are present in low absolute numbers. As the ability to compensate for latent deficits declines with age, such adults may suffer from "premature aging as the late price of premature birth." A holistic approach to care with personalized prevention strategies-which for most of them was discontinued at discharge from pediatric follow-up-therefore seems appropriate in adulthood as well.

Pediatr Diabetes 2020; 21:210-214. [PMID: 31854491 DOI: 10.1111/pedi.12969] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/01/2019] [Revised: 12/05/2019] [Accepted: 12/16/2019] [Indexed: 12/18/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous studies reported impaired glucose homeostasis among preterm survivors, but consisted almost exclusively of Caucasians. It is unknown whether Asians born preterm display similar impairments. AIM To assess glucose homeostasis and other cardiometabolic outcomes among young adults born preterm in Thailand. METHODS Participants were 575 young adult offspring of mothers from the Chiang Mai Low Birth Weight Study, born in 1989 to 1990 and followed up in 2010: 54.1% females, median age 20.6 years, including 33 individuals (5.7%) born preterm. After an overnight fast, participants underwent clinical assessments, including blood sampling (glucose, insulin, and lipid profile). Insulin sensitivity was assessed using HOMA-IR and insulin secretion estimated using HOMA-β. RESULTS In unadjusted analyses, young Thai adults born preterm were 3.2 cm shorter (P = .037), 6 kg lighter (P = .016), and had HOMA-β 34% higher (P = .026) than those born at term. Adjusted analyses accounting for important confounders showed marked impairments in glucose homeostasis among preterm survivors: fasting insulin levels were 32% greater (P = .011), with HOMA-IR and HOMA-β that were 31% (P = .020) and 43% higher (P = .005), respectively, compared to peers born at term. There were no other contrasting observations between groups, with anthropometric differences disappearing after adjustment for confounders. DISCUSSION Young adults in Thailand born preterm were more insulin resistant than peers born at term. The observed impairments in glucose metabolism among young Thai adults born preterm corroborate findings reported mostly on Caucasians. The challenge for general practitioners and public health professionals is to encourage those born preterm to make healthier lifestyle choices early on.
