Abstract
Interdisciplinary fetal-neonatal neurology (FNN) training strengthens neonatal neurocritical care (NNCC) clinical decisions. Neonatal neurological phenotypes require immediate followed by sustained neuroprotective care path choices through discharge. Serial assessments during neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) rounds are supplemented by family conferences and didactic interactions. These encounters collectively contribute to optimal interventions yielding more accurate outcome predictions. Maternal-placental-fetal (MPF) triad disease pathways influence postnatal medical complications which potentially reduce effective interventions and negatively impact outcome. The science of uncertainty regarding each neonate's clinical status must consider timing and etiologies that are responsible for fetal and neonatal brain disorders. Shared clinical decisions among all stakeholders' balance "fast" (heuristic) and "slow" (analytic) thinking as more information is assessed regarding etiopathogenetic effects that impair the developmental neuroplasticity process. Two case vignettes stress the importance of FNN perspectives during NNCC that integrates this dual cognitive approach. Clinical care paths evaluations are discussed for an encephalopathic extremely preterm and full-term newborn. Recognition of cognitive errors followed by debiasing strategies can improve clinical decisions during NICU care. Re-evaluations with serial assessments of examination, imaging, placental-cord, and metabolic-genetic information improve clinical decisions that maintain accuracy for interventions and outcome predictions. Discharge planning includes shared decisions among all stakeholders when coordinating primary care, pediatric subspecialty, and early intervention participation. Prioritizing social determinants of healthcare during FNN training strengthens equitable career long NNCC clinical practice, education, and research goals. These perspectives contribute to a life course brain health capital strategy that will benefit all persons across each and successive lifespans.

Impact on cerebral hemodynamics of the use of volume guarantee combined with high frequency oscillatory ventilation in a neonatal animal respiratory distress model. Eur J Pediatr 2024; 183:157-167. [PMID: 37851085 DOI: 10.1007/s00431-023-05245-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/24/2023] [Revised: 09/22/2023] [Accepted: 09/28/2023] [Indexed: 10/19/2023]
Abstract
High-frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV) is an alternative to conventional mechanical ventilation (CMV). Recently, the use of volume guarantee (VG) combined with HFOV has been suggested as a safe strategy capable of reducing the damage induced by ventilation in immature lungs. However, the possible impact of this new ventilation technique on cerebral hemodynamics is unknown. To evaluate the cerebral hemodynamics effect of HFOV combined with VG in an experimental animal model of neonatal respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) due to surfactant deficiency compared with HFOV and CMV+VG (control group). Eighteen newborn piglets were randomized, before and after the induction of RDS by bronchoalveolar lavage, into 3 mechanical ventilation groups: CMV, HFOV and HFOV with VG. Changes in cerebral oxygen transport and consumption and cerebral blood flow were analyzed by non-invasive regional cerebral oxygen saturation (CrSO2), jugular venous saturation (SjO2), the calculated cerebral oxygen extraction fraction (COEF), the calculated cerebral fractional tissue oxygen extraction (cFTOE) and direct measurement of carotid artery flow. To analyze the temporal evolution of these variables, a mixed-effects linear regression model was constructed. After randomization, the following statistically significant results were found in every group: a drop in carotid artery flow: at a rate of -1.7 mL/kg/min (95% CI: -2.5 to -0.81; p < 0.001), CrSO2: at a rate of -6.2% (95% CI: -7.9 to -4.4; p < 0.001) and SjO2: at a rate of -20% (95% CI: -26 to -15; p < 0.001), accompanied by an increase in COEF: at a rate of 20% (95% CI: 15 to 26; p < 0.001) and cFTOE: at a rate of 0.07 (95% CI: 0.05 to 0.08; p < 0.001) in all groups. No statistically significant differences were found between the HFOV groups. CONCLUSION No differences were observed at cerebral hemodynamic between respiratory assistance in HFOV with and without VG, being the latter ventilatory strategy equally safe. WHAT IS KNOWN • Preterm have a situation of fragility of cerebral perfusion wich means that any mechanical ventilation strategy can have a significant influence. High-frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV) is an alternative to conventional mechanical ventilation (CMV). Recently, the use of volume guarantee (VG) combined with HFOV has been suggested as a safe strategy capable of reducing the damage induced by ventilation in immature lungs. Several studies have compared CMV and HFOV and their effects at hemodynamic level. It is known that the use of high mean airway pressure in HFOV can cause an increase in pulmonary vascular resistance with a decrease in thoracic venous return. WHAT IS NEW • The possible impact of VAFO + VG on cerebral hemodynamics is unknown. Due the lack of studies and the existing controversy, we have carried out this research project in an experimental animal model with the aim of evaluating the cerebral hemodynamic repercussion of the use of VG in HFOV compared to the classic strategy without VG.

Abstract
Respiratory management of infants with established severe BPD is difficult and there is little evidence upon which to base decisions. Nonetheless, the physiology of severe BPD is well described with a predominantly obstructive pattern. This pulmonary dysfunction results in prolonged exhalatory time constants and thus ventilator management must be focused on maintaining adequate oxygenation and ventilation through achieving full exhalation. This approach is often difficult to maintain in acute care settings and a culture of chronic care focused on slow change and steady progress is imperative. Once respiratory stability is achieved, the focus should shift to growth and development and avoidance of care practices and medications that impair neurodevelopment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) and ventilation-induced lung injury lead to significant morbidity in preterm infants. High-frequency oscillatory ventilation with volume-guarantee (HFOV-VG) has been used as a rescue therapy and might lead to lower rates of death and bronchopulmonary dysplasia, especially when using low tidal volumes and high frequencies. The aim of the study was to define HFOV-VG parameters leading to adequate ventilation in the first 72 h of preterm RDS using a low volume and high-frequency strategy. DESIGN AND METHODS Retrospective cohort study in a tertiary-level neonatology unit. Infants <32 weeks with severe respiratory insufficiency needing HFOV-VG were included. Patients were ventilated following a standard mechanical ventilation aiming for low tidal volumes and high frequencies. Clinical data, perinatal characteristics and high-frequency parameters corresponding with adequate ventilation were recorded. RESULTS 116 patients were included. Median gestational age was 25 weeks (interquartile range [IQR] = 24-27), median birth weight 724 g (IQR = 600-900 g). HFOV-VG was started at 2 h, median high-frequency tidal volume was 1.63 ml/kg (IQR = 1.44-1.84) and median frequency was 16 Hz (IQR = 15-18). Weight-adjusted tidal volumes did not depend on gestational age, antenatal corticosteroids nor chorioamnionitis, and were inversely correlated with frequencies (R 2 = -0.10, p = .001). CONCLUSION HFOV-VG can reach adequate ventilation at high frequencies when using adequate volumes, providing a feasible ventilation strategy that might be of help in preterm infants with RDS.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The only guidance in the literature on which tidal volumes to use when ventilating babies with, or at high risk of, bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) suggests using very large volume breaths of around 8-12 mL/kg and low rates (10-20 breaths per min) to achieve adequate gas exchange, whilst acknowledging there are no data to validate these strategies. The aim of this retrospective, observational, cohort study was to identify the mechanical ventilation settings that are used, and what carbon dioxide (CO2) levels were achieved, in neonates with ventilator-dependant evolving BPD. METHODS This retrospective cohort study included neonates born <30 weeks GA admitted to the Grantley Stable Neonatal Unit between May 2014 and December 2018. Included ventilator-dependant neonates with evolving BPD ventilated on either or all days 28, 42 and 56 of life. RESULTS A total of 105 neonates were included, all were between 23 and 28.5 weeks GA. The median (IQR) GA was 25.1 (24.2-26.5) weeks and BW 708 (608-809) grams. Neonates who required conventional mechanical ventilation (CMV) at each of the three time-points had median tidal volumes ranging between 4.5 and 4.7 mL/kg, median ventilator rates of 35-50 and MAPs of 10-11 cmH2O. For those neonates requiring HFOV, median MAPs ranged from 14 to 18 cmH2O and tidal volumes from 1.4 to 2.2 mL/kg to achieve adequate ventilation and oxygenation. CONCLUSIONS Neonates with ventilator-dependant evolving BPD were ventilated either with CMV using tidal volumes of around 4-5 mL/kg, or HFOV using tidal volumes around 1-2 mL/kg, which achieves adequate ventilation and blood gas results.

Use of very low tidal volumes during high-frequency ventilation reduces ventilator lung injury. J Perinatol 2019; 39:730-736. [PMID: 30770883 DOI: 10.1038/s41372-019-0338-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/26/2018] [Revised: 12/13/2018] [Accepted: 01/28/2019] [Indexed: 11/08/2022]
Abstract
UNLABELLED The use of volume guarantee (VG) on high-frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV) allows to use fixed very low high-frequency tidal volume (VThf), maintaining adequate CO2 removal while potentially reducing the risk of ventilator-induced lung injury. OBJECTIVE To demonstrate that the use of very low VThf can be protective compared with standard VThf on HFOV combined with VG in a neonatal animal model. STUDY DESIGN Experimental study in 2-day-old piglets with induced respiratory distress syndrome ventilated with two different HFOV strategies combined with VG (10 Hz with high VThf versus 20 Hz with very low VThf at similar PaCO2). After 12 h of mechanical ventilation, the pulmonary histologic pattern was analyzed. RESULTS We found in the 10 Hz group with the higher VThf compared with the 20 Hz and very low VThf group more evident and more severe histological lesions with inflammatory infiltrate within the alveolar wall and alveolar space, as well as large areas of parenchyma consolidation and areas of alveolar hemorrhage in the more severe cases. CONCLUSION The use of very low VThf compared with higher VThf at similar CO2 removal reduces lung injury in a neonatal animal model of lung injury after prolonged mechanical ventilation with HFOV combined with VG.

Abstract
AIM Despite advances in perinatal management, there is a flat trend in incidences of respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) and bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) in preterm infants. The main feature of BPD development in preterm infants is an imbalance between increased exposure to free radicals and inadequate antioxidant defences. We investigated the associations between BPD and lipid hydro-peroxide (LOOH) and glutathione (GSH) concentrations in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF). METHODS In this prospective study, BALF samples were collected from 44 preterm infants with RDS and oxidative stress markers were measured in 11 with BPD and 33 controls without BPD. RESULTS LOOH levels were significantly higher (p < 0.01) in the BPD group (median 16.35; 25th-75th centile 13.75-17.05 nmol/mL) than in the no BPD group (median 13.18; 25th-75th centile 12.92-13.63 nmol/mL). Conversely, GSH levels were significantly lower in the BPD group (p < 0.01) (median 11.52; 25th-75th centile 6.95-13.85 μmol/mg) than the no BPD group (median: 18.69; 25th-75th centile: 13.89-23.64 μmol/mg). Multiple regression analysis showed significant correlations between BPD and mechanical ventilation time (p < 0.01) and LOOH levels (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION Early LOOH level increases in preterm infants developing BPD suggest that lung biochemical monitoring of sick infants might be possible and BPD could be predicted early by evaluating biomarkers.

Abstract
Preterm infants often require supplemental oxygen due to lung immaturity, but hyperoxia can contribute to an increased risk of respiratory illness later in life. Our aim was to compare the effects of mild and moderate levels of neonatal hyperoxia on markers of pulmonary oxidative stress and inflammation and on lung architecture; both immediate and persistent effects were assessed. Neonatal mice (C57BL6/J) were raised in either room air (21% O2), mild (40% O2), or moderate (65% O2) hyperoxia from birth until postnatal day 7 (P7d). The mice were killed at either P7d (immediate effects) or lived in air until adulthood (P56d, persistent effects). We enumerated macrophages in lung tissue at P7d and immune cells in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) at P56d. At P7d and P56d, we assessed pulmonary oxidative stress [heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) and nitrotyrosine staining] and lung architecture. The data were interrogated for sex differences. At P7d, HO-1 gene expression was greater in the 65% O2 group than in the 21% O2 group. At P56d, the area of nitrotyrosine staining and number of immune cells were greater in the 40% O2 and 65% O2 groups relative to the 21% O2 group. Exposure to 65% O2, but not 40% O2, led to larger alveoli and lower tissue fraction in the short term and to persistently fewer bronchiolar-alveolar attachments. Exposure to 40% O2 or 65% O2 causes persistent increases in pulmonary oxidative stress and immune cells, suggesting chronic inflammation within the adult lung. Unlike 65% O2, 40% O2 does not affect lung architecture.

Abstract
The etiology of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is multifactorial, with genetics, ante- and postnatal sepsis, invasive mechanical ventilation, and exposure to hyperoxia being well described as contributing factors. Much of what is known about the pathogenesis of BPD is derived from animal models being exposed to the environmental factors noted above. This review will briefly cover the various mouse models of BPD, focusing mainly on the hyperoxia-induced lung injury models. We will also include hypoxia, hypoxia/hyperoxia, inflammation-induced, and transgenic models in room air. Attention to the stage of lung development at the timing of the initiation of the environmental insult and the duration of lung injury is critical to attempt to mimic the human disease pulmonary phenotype, both in the short term and in outcomes extending into childhood, adolescence, and adulthood. The various indexes of alveolar and vascular development as well as pulmonary function including pulmonary hypertension will be highlighted. The advantages (and limitations) of using such approaches will be discussed in the context of understanding the pathogenesis of and targeting therapeutic interventions to ameliorate human BPD.

Factors affecting nasal intermittent positive pressure ventilation failure and impact on bronchopulmonary dysplasia in neonates. J Perinatol 2014; 34:754-60.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Nasal intermittent positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV) is becoming more important as a mode of ventilation in premature neonates predisposed to development of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). To the best of our knowledge, there have been no detailed studies characterizing neonates who fail NIPPV. OBJECTIVE To determine the differences between neonates who are successfully extubated to NIPPV and those who require re-intubation from NIPPV, and the impact of timing of NIPPV failure on BPD rates. STUDY DESIGN This was a retrospective cohort study in which we included infants with gestational age (GA) ⩽ 28 weeks and birth weight ⩽ 1000 g. χ²-test, analysis of variance and multivariate logistic regression models were used. RESULTS Two hundred and forty infants were studied; 180 failed NIPPV and of those, 33 (18%), 39 (22%) and 108 (60%) failed NIPPV within 0 to 6 h, ⩾ 6 to 24 h and ⩾ 24 h, respectively. Female sex and increased weight were protective against NIPPV failure (adjusted odds ratio (95% confidence interval): 0.28 (0.14 to 0.58), 0.04 (0.01 to 0.22)). Increased GA at extubation and female sex were both associated with increased time to failure (P=0.008, <0.001, respectively). Apnea was more likely the cause for failure ⩾ 24 h (P=0.015), whereas increased work of breathing/fraction of inspired oxygen requirements were more significant when NIPPV failure occurred earlier (P=0.001). Neonates who failed NIPPV within 24 h did not have any association with likelihood of developing BPD or severity of BPD, after adjusting for confounding variables. CONCLUSION Significant differences in neonatal characteristics may help identify which neonates are more likely to fail NIPPV, and their timing of failure.

Abstract
Hyperoxia inhibits pulmonary bioenergetics, causing delayed alveolarization in mice. We hypothesized that mechanical ventilation (MV) also causes a failure of bioenergetics to support alveolarization. To test this hypothesis, neonatal mice were ventilated with room air for 8 hours (prolonged) or for 2 hours (brief) with 15 μl/g (aggressive) tidal volume (Tv), or for 8 hours with 8 μl/g (gentle) Tv. After 24 hours or 10 days of recovery, lung mitochondria were examined for adenosine diphosphate (ADP)-phosphorylating respiration, using complex I (C-I)-dependent, complex II (C-II)-dependent, or cytochrome C oxidase (C-IV)-dependent substrates, ATP production rate, and the activity of C-I and C-II. A separate cohort of mice was exposed to 2,4-dinitrophenol (DNP), a known uncoupler of oxidative phosphorylation. At 10 days of recovery, pulmonary alveolarization and the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) were assessed. Sham-operated littermates were used as control mice. At 24 hours after aggressive MV, mitochondrial ATP production rates and the activity of C-I and C-II were significantly decreased compared with control mice. However, at 10 days of recovery, only mice exposed to prolonged-aggressive MV continued to exhibit significantly depressed mitochondrial respiration. This was associated with significantly poorer alveolarization and VEGF expression. In contrast, mice exposed to brief-aggressive or prolonged-gentle MV exhibited restored mitochondrial ADP-phosphorylation, normal alveolarization and pulmonary VEGF content. Exposure to DNP fully replicated the phenotype consistent with alveolar developmental arrest. Our data suggest that the failure of bioenergetics to support normal lung development caused by aggressive and prolonged ventilation should be considered a fundamental mechanism for the development of bronchopulmonary dysplasia in premature neonates.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Volume guaranteed (VG) synchronized intermittent mandatory ventilation (SIMV) is a novel mode of SIMV that provides automatic adjustment of the peak inspiratory pressure for ensuring a minimum set tidal volume and there are limited data about the effects of VG ventilation on short term neonatal outcomes in preterm infants with respiratory distress syndrome (RDS). OBJECTIVE The main objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of VG ventilation on duration of ventilation and total supplemental oxygen. We also aimed to compare the early neonatal outcomes of VG ventilation versus conventional SIMV on short-term outcomes in preterm babies with RDS who were given surfactant. METHODS In this randomized controlled study, preterm infants who were admitted with RDS and given surfactant were divided into 2 groups: group 1 included infants ventilated on conventional SIMV (n = 30) and group 2 included infants ventilated on VG ventilation (n = 42). Neonatal morbidities such as air leak, bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH), retinopathy of prematurity (ROP), necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) and duration of mechanical ventilation and total oxygen supplementation were all recorded. RESULTS There were no significant differences between two groups in terms of demographic features. Infants ventilated with VG mode had significantly shorter duration of ventilation and need of total supplemental oxygen. The incidences of oxygen related short term complications including BPD, ROP, and IVH were also significantly lower in these infants compared with those ventilated with conventional SIMV. No significant differences were found between two groups with respect to NEC and air leak. CONCLUSION In conclusion, VG ventilation in combination with surfactant treatment significantly reduced both duration of mechanical ventilation and early neonatal oxygen related morbidities including BPD, ROP and IVH in preterm infants with RDS. This data favors the use of VG ventilation in respiratory support of premature infants.

Abstract
Background Very low birth weight (VLBW) infants (< 1,500 g) with bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) develop lung damage caused by mechanical ventilation and maturational arrest. We compared functional lung development after discharge from hospital between VLBW infants with and without BPD. Methods Comprehensive lung function assessment was performed at about 50, 70, and 100 weeks of postmenstrual age in 55 sedated VLBW infants (29 with former BPD [O2 supplementation was given at 36 weeks of gestational age] and 26 VLBW infants without BPD [controls]). Mean gestational age (26 vs. 29 weeks), birth weight (815 g vs. 1,125 g), and the proportion of infants requiring mechanical ventilation for ≥7 d (55% vs. 8%), differed significantly between BPD infants and controls. Results Both body weight and length, determined over time, were persistently lower in former BPD infants compared to controls, but no significant between-group differences were noted in respiratory rate, respiratory or airway resistance, functional residual capacity as determined by body plethysmography (FRCpleth), maximal expiratory flow at the FRC (V'max FRC), or blood gas (pO2, pCO2) levels. Tidal volume, minute ventilation, respiratory compliance, and FRC determined by SF6 multiple breath washout (representing the lung volume in actual communication with the airways) were significantly lower in former BPD infants compared to controls. However, these differences became non-significant after normalization to body weight. Conclusions Although somatic growth and the development of some lung functional parameters lag in former BPD infants, the lung function of such infants appears to develop in line with that of non-BPD infants when a body weight correction is applied. Longitudinal lung function testing of preterm infants after discharge from hospital may help to identify former BPD infants at risk of incomplete recovery of respiratory function; such infants are at risk of later respiratory problems.

Abstract
Non-invasive respiratory support techniques such as continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) have been increasingly used for management of surfactant-deficient lung disease in preterm infants. The successful use of this approach depends upon the condition of the baby at birth and requires the establishment of spontaneous breathing at birth. The reported advantages of CPAP in observational studies demonstrating a reduction in chronic lung disease have not been substantiated in recently reported well-designed randomised trials. This approach is now more established in larger and more mature preterm infants, and proper patient selection with close observation should be exercised when used in extremely low gestational age infants.

Abstract
Non-invasive ventilatory support can reduce the adverse effects associated with intubation and mechanical ventilation, such as bronchopulmonary dysplasia, sepsis, and trauma to the upper airways. In the last 4 decades, nasal continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) has been used to wean preterm infants off mechanical ventilation and, more recently, as a primary mode of respiratory support for preterm infants with respiratory insufficiency. Moreover, new methods of respiratory support have been developed, and the devices used to provide non-invasive ventilation (NIV) have improved technically. Use of NIV is increasing, and a variety of equipment is available in different clinical settings. There is evidence that NIV improves gas exchange and reduces extubation failure after mechanical ventilation in infants. However, more research is needed to identify the most suitable devices for particular conditions; the NIV settings that should be used; and whether to employ synchronized or non-synchronized NIV. Furthermore, the optimal treatment strategy and the best time for initiation of NIV remain to be identified. This article provides an overview of the use of non-invasive ventilation (NIV) in newborn infants, and the clinical applications of NIV.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To review epidemiological features of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) and its relationship with maternal and neonatal conditions in a neonatal unit. METHODS Cross-sectional, descriptive and analytical study involving preterm newborns (NBs) with a birth weight lower than 1,500 g and gestational age under 37 weeks. Data was collected through a review of medical records of these newborns admitted to a neonatal unit. RESULTS The study included 323 newborns with a mean birth weight of 1,161 g (± 231 g), gestational age between 24 and 36.5 weeks, with a BPD incidence of 17.6%. Among the NBs developing BPD, the mean of days using invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV), non-invasive ventilation (NIMV), and supplemental oxygen was 17.6, 16.2, and 46.1 days, respectively, with a time significantly longer for those NBs developing BPD (p < 0.001). BPD occurred significantly more often in NBs with a patent ductus arteriosus (PDA). CONCLUSION BPD incidence in this study was similar to that found in the literature. No BPD association with maternal infection and antenatal corticosteroid use was found. NBs receiving exogenous surfactant had a higher BPD incidence because they had lower BW and GA. Concomitant occurrence of PDA and BPD is associated with staying longer on IMV, NIMV and supplemental oxygen.

Abstract
Supplemental oxygen contributes to the development of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) in premature infants. In this investigation, we tested the hypothesis that prenatal treatment of pregnant mice (C57BL/6J) with the cytochrome P450 (CYP)1A1 inducer, ß-napthoflavone (BNF), will lead to attenuation of lung injury in newborns (delivered from these dams) exposed to hyperoxia by mechanisms entailing transplacental induction of hepatic and pulmonary CYP1A enzymes. Pregnant mice were administered the vehicle corn oil (CO) or BNF (40 mg/kg), i.p., once daily for 3 days on gestational days (17-19), and newborns delivered from the mothers were either maintained in room air or exposed to hyperoxia (>95% O(2)) for 1-5 days. After 3-5 days of hyperoxia, the lungs of CO-treated mice showed neutrophil infiltration, pulmonary edema, and perivascular inflammation. On the other hand, BNF-pretreated neonatal mice showed decreased susceptibility to hyperoxic lung injury. These mice displayed marked induction of ethoxyresorufin O-deethylase (EROD) (CYP1A1) and methoxyresorufin O-demethylase (MROD) (CYP1A2) activities, and levels of the corresponding apoproteins and mRNA levels until PND 3 in liver, while CYP1A1 expression alone was augmented in the lung. Prenatal BNF did not significantly alter gene expression of pulmonary NAD(P)H quinone reductase (NQO1). Hyperoxia for 24-72 h resulted in increased pulmonary levels of the F(2)-isoprostane 8-iso-PGF(2α), whose levels were decreased in mice prenatally exposed to BNF. In conclusion, our results suggest that prenatal BNF protects newborns against hyperoxic lung injury, presumably by detoxification of lipid hydroperoxides by CYP1A enzymes, a phenomenon that has implications for prevention of BPD in infants.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess pulmonary function and the prevalence of atopy in school-age children who were very low birth weight as infants and to compare those who had bronchopulmonary dysplasia to those who did not. METHOD We studied 85 (39 male and 46 female) at a mean age of 84 (range, 62 to 107) months who were very low birth weight infants. Bronchopulmonary dysplasia was defined as oxygen dependency at 36 weeks gestational age. We excluded 8 patients (4 for cerebral palsy and 4 for no collaboration). Detailed perinatal and clinical data were collected. Lung function was evaluated using conventional spirometry. Atopy (assessed by the allergy skin-prick test) was considered when at least one positive skin test occurred in a panel of the most common environmental allergens in the local region. Comparisons between the bronchopulmonary dysplasia and no bronchopulmonary dysplasia groups were performed using the Mann-Whitney, x2 and Fisher's exact tests. RESULTS We compared the bronchopulmonary dysplasia (n = 13) and no bronchopulmonary dysplasia (n = 64) groups. Atopy was observed in 4 (30.8%) of the bronchopulmonary dysplasia patients and in 17 (26.6%) of the no bronchopulmonary dysplasia patients (p = 0.742). Two (15.4%) patients with bronchopulmonary dysplasia had a family history of atopy vs. 17 (26.6%) in the no bronchopulmonary dysplasia group (p = 0.5). Lung function tests showed airway obstruction in 2 (15.4%) of the bronchopulmonary dysplasia patients and in 10 (15.6%) of the no bronchopulmonary dysplasia patients (p = 1.0). Four (33.3%) of the bronchopulmonary dysplasia patients had small airway obstruction vs. 14 (22.2%) of the no bronchopulmonary dysplasia patients (p = 0.466). CONCLUSION Our data showed no significant differences in lung function between bronchopulmonary dysplasia and no bronchopulmonary dysplasia patients at school age and no evidence of an association between atopy and bronchopulmonary dysplasia.
