Abstract
This review highlights both the longstanding impact of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) on the health of adult survivors of prematurity and the pressing need for prospective, longitudinal studies of this population. Conservatively, there are an estimated 1,000,000 survivors of BPD in the United States alone. Unfortunately, most of the available literature regarding outcomes of lung disease due to prematurity naturally focuses on pediatric patients in early or middle childhood, and the relative amount of literature on adult survivors is scant. As the number of adult survivors of BPD continues to increase, it is essential that both adult and pediatric pulmonologists have a comprehensive understanding of the pathophysiology and underlying disease process, including the molecular signaling pathways and pro-inflammatory modulators that contribute to the pathogenesis of BPD. We summarize the most common presenting symptoms for adults with BPD and identify the critical challenges adult pulmonologists face in managing the care of survivors of prematurity. Specifically, these challenges include the wide variability of the clinical presentation of adult patients, comorbid cardiopulmonary complications, and the paucity of longitudinal data available on these patients. Adult survivors of BPD have even required lung transplantation, indicating the high burden of morbidity that can result from premature birth and subsequent lung injury. In addition, we analyze the disparate symptoms and management approach to adults with "old" BPD versus "new" BPD. The aim of this review is to assist pulmonologists in understanding the underlying pathophysiology of BPD and to improve clinical recognition of this increasingly common pulmonary disease.

Unravelling the respiratory health path across the lifespan for survivors of preterm birth. THE LANCET. RESPIRATORY MEDICINE 2024; 12:167-180. [PMID: 37972623 DOI: 10.1016/s2213-2600(23)00272-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/06/2023] [Revised: 06/19/2023] [Accepted: 07/19/2023] [Indexed: 11/19/2023]
Abstract
Many survivors of preterm birth will have abnormal lung development, reduced peak lung function and, potentially, an increased rate of physiological lung function decline, each of which places them at increased risk of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease across the lifespan. Current rates of preterm birth indicate that by the year 2040, around 50 years since the introduction of surfactant therapy, more than 700 million individuals will have been born prematurely-a number that will continue to increase by about 15 million annually. In this Personal View, we describe current understanding of the impact of preterm birth on lung function through the life course, with the aim of putting this emerging health crisis on the radar for the respiratory community. We detail the potential underlying mechanisms of prematurity-associated lung disease and review current approaches to prevention and management. Furthermore, we propose a novel way of considering lung disease after preterm birth, using a multidimensional model to determine individual phenotypes of lung disease-a first step towards optimising management approaches for prematurity-associated lung disease.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine health-related quality of life (HRQOL) of school-aged children with bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) using the standardized Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) assessment tools. STUDY DESIGN The Indoor Air Quality and Respiratory Morbidity in Children with BPD Study is an ongoing observational study of school-aged children with BPD. HRQOL is assessed at enrollment by 3 PROMIS questionnaires, Parent Proxy Scale-Global Health 7, Parent Proxy Psychological Stress Experiences-Short Form, and the Parent Proxy Profile-Profile-25. PROMIS data were tested for significant deviation from the standardized T-Score references for normative populations of children. RESULTS Eighty-nine subjects enrolled in the AERO-BPD study had complete outcome data for HRQOL. The mean age was 9 (±2) years and 43% were female. Mean days on respiratory support totaled 96 (±40). Across all domains, school-aged children with BPD reported similar or slightly better outcomes than the reference sample. Statistically significant findings of lower depression (P < .0001), fatigue (P < .0001), and pain (P < .0001) scores were found; there was no difference in psychological stress experiences (P = .87), global health (P = .06), anxiety (P = .08), relationships (P = .80), and mobility (P = .59) domains. CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrated that children with BPD may have less depression, fatigue, and pain HRQL than the general population. Once validated, these findings may offer reassurance to parents and providers caring for children with BPD.

Outcomes at 7 Years of Age of Former Very Preterm Neonates with Repeated Surfactant Treatment for Prolonged Respiratory Distress in the Neonatal Period. J Clin Med 2023; 12:6220. [PMID: 37834864 PMCID: PMC10573464 DOI: 10.3390/jcm12196220] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/29/2023] [Revised: 09/18/2023] [Accepted: 09/25/2023] [Indexed: 10/15/2023] Open
Abstract
This study aimed at evaluating the 7-year outcomes of 118 very preterm newborns (VPNs, gestational age = 26 ± 1.4 w) involved in a randomized controlled trial. They presented neonatal respiratory distress (RDS), requiring ventilation for 14 ± 2 days post-natal age (PNA). A repeated instillation of 200 mg/kg poractant alfa (SURF) did not improve early bronchopulmonary dysplasia, but the SURF infants needed less re-hospitalization than the controls for respiratory problems at 1- and 2-year PNA. There was no growth difference at 7.1 ± 0.3 years between 41 SURF infants and 36 controls (80% of the eligible children), and 7.9% SURF infants vs. 28.6% controls presented asthma (p = 0.021). The children underwent cognitive assessment (WISC IV) and pulmonary function testing (PFT), measuring their spirometry, lung volume, and airway resistance. The spirometry measures showed differences (p < 0.05) between the SURF infants and the controls (mean ± standard deviation (median z-score)) for FEV1 (L/s) (1.188 ± 0.690(-0.803) vs. 1.080 ± 0.243 (-1.446)); FEV1 after betamimetics (1.244 ± 0.183(-0.525) vs. 1.091 ± 0.20(-1.342)); FVC (L) (1.402 ± 0.217 (-0.406) vs. 1.265 ± 0.267 (-1.141)), and FVC after betamimetics (1.452 ± 0.237 (-0.241) vs. 1.279 ± 0.264 (-1.020)). PFT showed no differences in the volumes or airway resistance. The global IQ median (interquartile range) was 89 (82:99) vs. 89 (76:98), with 61% of the children >85 in both groups. Repeated surfactant treatment in VPNs presenting severe RDS led to the attenuation of early lung injuries, with an impact on long-term pulmonary sequelae, without differences in neurodevelopmental outcomes.

Abstract
Background Few studies exist investigating lung function trajectories of those born preterm; however growing evidence suggests some individuals experience increasing airway obstruction throughout life. Here we use the studies identified in a recent systematic review to provide the first meta-analysis investigating the impact of preterm birth on airway obstruction measured by the forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1) to forced vital capacity (FVC) ratio. Methods Cohorts were included for analysis if they reported FEV1/FVC in survivors of preterm birth (<37 weeks' gestation) and control populations born at term. Meta-analysis was performed using a random effect model, expressed as standardised mean difference (SMD). Meta-regression was conducted using age and birth year as moderators. Results 55 cohorts were eligible, 35 of which defined groups with bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). Compared to control populations born at term, lower values of FEV1/FVC were seen in all individuals born preterm (SMD -0.56), with greater differences seen in those with BPD (SMD -0.87) than those without BPD (SMD -0.45). Meta-regression identified age as a significant predictor of FEV1/FVC in those with BPD with the FEV1/FVC ratio moving -0.04 sds away from the term control population for every year of increased age. Conclusions Survivors of preterm birth have significantly increased airway obstruction compared to those born at term with larger differences in those with BPD. Increased age is associated with a decline in FEV1/FVC values suggesting increased airway obstruction over the life course.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is lack of evidence synthesis on the global consequences of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) in adolescence. AIM Assess the impact of bronchopulmonary dysplasia on respiratory and non-respiratory outcomes in adolescents. METHODS A systematic review of studies assessing the outcomes of adolescents aged 10 to 19 years-old with BPD was conducted. We independently screened studies published until 6th March 2023 in PubMed® and Scopus® databases. Data on methodologic design, sample descriptive and findings were extracted from each study. Risk of bias was assessed using quality assessment tools. RESULTS Thirty-one studies were included. Adolescents with a history of BPD present with more respiratory symptoms (wheezing, respiratory exacerbations, need for respiratory medication) and twenty-five studies showed a reduction in pulmonary function, with varying impact according to BPD severity and no differences before and after the surfactant era. Spirometry evaluation throughout the years is not consensual, but methacholine and salbutamol response in BPD groups is increased compared to non-BPD groups. Markers of eosinophilic airway inflammation are not increased as in asthma patients. Exercise potential is identical, but data regarding physical capacity and activity are inconsistent. More frequent radiologic abnormalities translate into higher high-resolution computed tomography scores, with linear (72.2 %) and triangular subpleural opacities (58.3 %) as the most common findings. There is a higher risk for special needs in education, but quality of life seems to be equal to non-BPD adolescents. CONCLUSIONS BPD negatively impacts both pulmonary and non-pulmonary outcomes in adolescents.

Abstract
Importance Although preterm birth is associated with later deficits in lung function, there is a paucity of information on geographical differences and whether improvements occur over time, especially after surfactant was introduced. Objective To determine deficits in percentage predicted forced expiratory volume in 1 second (%FEV1) in preterm-born study participants, including those with bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) in infancy, when compared with term-born control groups. Data Sources Eight databases searched up to December 2021. Study Selection Studies reporting spirometry for preterm-born participants with or without a term-born control group were identified. Data Extraction and Synthesis Data were extracted and quality assessed by 1 reviewer and checked by another. Data were pooled using random-effects models and analyzed using Review Manager and the R metafor package. Main Outcomes and Measures Deficits in %FEV1 between preterm-born and term groups. Associations between deficits in %FEV1 and year of birth, age, introduction of surfactant therapy, and geographical region of birth and residence were also assessed. Results From 16 856 titles, 685 full articles were screened: 86 with and without term-born control groups were included. Fifty studies with term controls were combined with the 36 studies from our previous systematic review, including 7094 preterm-born and 17 700 term-born participants. Of these studies, 45 included preterm-born children without BPD, 29 reported on BPD28 (supplemental oxygen dependency at 28 days), 26 reported on BPD36 (supplemental oxygen dependency at 36 weeks' postmenstrual age), and 86 included preterm-born participants. Compared with the term-born group, the group of all preterm-born participants (all preterm) had deficits of %FEV1 of -9.2%; those without BPD had deficits of -5.8%, and those with BPD had deficits of approximately -16% regardless of whether they had BPD28 or BPD36. As year of birth increased, there was a statistically significant narrowing of the difference in mean %FEV1 between the preterm- and term-born groups for the all preterm group and the 3 BPD groups but not for the preterm-born group without BPD. For the all BPD group, when compared with Scandinavia, North America and western Europe had deficits of -5.5% (95% CI, -10.7 to -0.3; P = .04) and -4.1% (95% CI, -8.8 to 0.5; P = .08), respectively. Conclusions and Relevance Values for the measure %FEV1 were reduced in preterm-born survivors. There were improvements in %FEV1 over recent years, but geographical region had an association with later %FEV1 for the BPD groups.

Increased cytotoxic T-cells in the airways of adults with former bronchopulmonary dysplasia. Eur Respir J 2022; 60:13993003.02531-2021. [PMID: 35210327 PMCID: PMC9520031 DOI: 10.1183/13993003.02531-2021] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/20/2021] [Accepted: 02/04/2022] [Indexed: 11/29/2022]
Abstract
Rationale Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) in preterm-born infants is a risk factor for chronic airway obstruction in adulthood. Cytotoxic T-cells are implicated in COPD, but their involvement in BPD is not known. Objectives To characterise the distribution of airway T-cell subsets in adults with a history of BPD. Methods Young adults with former BPD (n=22; median age 19.6 years), age-matched adults born preterm (n=22), patients with allergic asthma born at term (n=22) and healthy control subjects born at term (n=24) underwent bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL). T-cell subsets in BAL were analysed using flow cytometry. Results The total number of cells and the differential cell counts in BAL were similar among the study groups. The percentage of CD3+CD8+ T-cells was higher (p=0.005) and the proportion of CD3+CD4+ T-cells was reduced (p=0.01) in the BPD group, resulting in a lower CD4/CD8 ratio (p=0.007) compared to the healthy controls (median 2.2 versus 5.3). In BPD and preterm-born study subjects, both CD3+CD4+ T-cells (rs=0.38, p=0.03) and CD4/CD8 ratio (rs=0.44, p=0.01) correlated positively with forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1). Furthermore, CD3+CD8+ T-cells were negatively correlated with both FEV1 and FEV1/forced vital capacity (rs= −0.44, p=0.09 and rs= −0.41, p=0.01, respectively). Conclusions Young adults with former BPD have a T-cell subset pattern in the airways resembling features of COPD. Our findings are compatible with the hypothesis that CD3+CD8+ T-cells are involved in mechanisms behind chronic airway obstruction in these patients. Young adults with former BPD display more cytotoxic T-cells in the airways than healthy subjects. These T-cells correlate with FEV1. Thus, cytotoxic T-cells may contribute to the pathology behind chronic airway obstruction in adults with former BPD.https://bit.ly/3soI4lK

Respiratory outcomes of "new" bronchopulmonary dysplasia in adolescents: A multicenter study. Pediatr Pulmonol 2021; 56:1205-1214. [PMID: 33314679 PMCID: PMC8246560 DOI: 10.1002/ppul.25226] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/28/2020] [Revised: 12/03/2020] [Accepted: 12/10/2020] [Indexed: 12/26/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Long-term respiratory consequences of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) in preterm infants born in the post-surfactant era ("new" BPD) remain partially unknown. The present study aimed to evaluate the respiratory outcomes of "new" BPD in adolescents who were born preterm. METHODS This multicenter, cross-sectional study included 286 adolescents born between 2003 and 2005 (mean age: 14.2 years); among them, 184 and 102 were born extremely preterm (EP; <28 weeks' gestation) and moderate-late preterm (32 to <37 weeks' gestation), respectively. Among EP adolescents, 92 had BPD, and 92 did not. All participants underwent lung function tests, skin prick testing, and questionnaires on asthma symptoms and quality of life. RESULTS EP adolescents with BPD had significantly lower forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1 ), forced vital capacity (FVC), FEV1 /FVC ratio, and forced expiratory flow between 25% and 75% of FVC than other included adolescents. FEV1 /FVC ratios were below the lower limit of normal (z-score <-1.645) in 30.4% of EP adolescents with BPD, 13.0% of EP adolescents without BPD, and 11.8% of adolescents who were born moderate-late preterm. Bronchodilator response and air-trapping were significantly higher in BPD adolescents than in other adolescents. Diffusion capacity was significantly lower in EP adolescents than in moderate-late preterm adolescents. Asthma symptoms and quality-of-life scores were similar among groups. CONCLUSION EP adolescents with "new" BPD had poorer pulmonary function than EP adolescents without BPD or moderate-late preterm adolescents. Further studies are needed to determine whether "new" BPD is associated with early-onset chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in adulthood.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To summarize the current literature evaluating long-term pulmonary morbidity among surviving very preterm infants with bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). RECENT FINDINGS BPD predisposes very preterm infants to adverse respiratory signs and symptoms, greater respiratory medication use, and more frequent need for rehospitalization throughout early childhood. Reassuringly, studies also indicate that older children and adolescents with BPD experience, on average, similar functional status and quality of life when compared to former very preterm infants without BPD. However, measured deficits in pulmonary function may persist in those with BPD and indicate an increased susceptibility to early-onset chronic obstructive pulmonary disease during adulthood. Moreover, subtle differences in exercise tolerance and activity may put survivors with BPD at further risk of future morbidity in later life. SUMMARY Despite advances in neonatal respiratory care, a diagnosis of BPD continues to be associated with significant pulmonary morbidity over the first two decades of life. Long-term longitudinal studies are needed to determine if recent survivors of BPD will also be at increased risk of debilitating pulmonary disease in adulthood.

Abstract
Background Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is a risk factor for respiratory disease in adulthood. Despite the differences in underlying pathology, patients with a history of BPD are often treated as asthmatics. We hypothesized that pulmonary outcomes and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) were different in adults born preterm with and without a history of BPD compared to asthmatics and healthy individuals. Methods We evaluated 96 young adults from the LUNAPRE cohort (clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT02923648), including 26 individuals born preterm with a history of BPD (BPD), 23 born preterm without BPD (preterm), 23 asthmatics and 24 healthy controls. Extensive lung function testing and HRQoL were assessed. Results The BPD group had more severe airway obstruction compared to the preterm-, (FEV1− 0.94 vs. 0.28 z-scores; p ≤ 0.001); asthmatic- (0.14 z-scores, p ≤ 0.01) and healthy groups (0.78 z-scores, p ≤ 0.001). Further, they had increased ventilation inhomogeneity compared to the preterm- (LCI 6.97 vs. 6.73, p ≤ 0.05), asthmatic- (6.75, p = 0.05) and healthy groups (6.50 p ≤ 0.001). Both preterm groups had lower DLCO compared to healthy controls (p ≤ 0.001 for both). HRQoL showed less physical but more psychological symptoms in the BPD group compared to asthmatics. Conclusions Lung function impairment and HRQoL in adults with a history of BPD differed from that in asthmatics highlighting the need for objective assessment of lung health.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess parents' views of their children's health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and the association between neonatal morbidities and HRQoL in children with severe bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) who survived to 18-36 months of corrected age. STUDY DESIGN Study population included infants born <32 weeks of gestational age with severe BPD. At 18-36 months of corrected age, parents of children with severe BPD completed age appropriate validated Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory assessing parental views of their child's physical (PHY-QoL) and psychosocial HRQoL (PS-QoL). Ten neonatal morbidities provided a composite morbidity score between 0 and 10. Linear regression evaluated associations between PHY-QoL and PS-QoL with composite morbidity score, adjusting for gestational age, sex, corrected age at assessment. RESULTS Seventy children (67% male, gestational age 26.1 ± 2.0 weeks, and birth weight 797 ± 318g) were enrolled at 27.1 ± 5.8 months of corrected age. Mean PHY-QoL and PS-QoL were 78.0 ± 21.9 and 75.3 ± 17.9, respectively, both significantly lower than reported means for term and preterm cohorts, with the exception of emotional QoL. Adjusted postnatal composite morbidity score was cumulatively associated with poorer PHY-QoL (P = .002) and poorer PS-QoL (P = .015). Presence of each additional neonatal morbidity was associated with a 4.4-point decrease in PHY-QoL and 2.8-point decrease in PS-QoL. CONCLUSIONS In this cohort, parental perceived HRQoL for their child with severe BPD was lower than expected for term and preterm populations. Neonatal morbidities had an additive association with poorer parental assessment of PHY-QoL and PS-QoL. These findings may aid in care of children with severe BPD and their families, both in the intensive care nursery and postdischarge.

Abstract
PURPOSE Children with bronchopulmonary dysplasia often develop complications that affect them well into adult life. Very little is known about how this affects their quality of life, since no sensitive instrument is available to measure health-related quality of life in this population. In this study, a Dutch parent-proxy instrument was developed for this purpose. METHODS A list of items was generated after literature search and interviews with both parents of patients and clinical experts. Clinically relevant items were selected with the clinical impact method and item analysis. Results of clinical tests to measure complications in children with bronchopulmonary dysplasia were correlated with these items to select the items that show construct validity. Cronbach's alpha was calculated to estimate internal consistency of the items in the final questionnaire. RESULTS In total, 92 children and their parents and 7 clinicians participated. Of 130 identified items, 47 showed clinical relevance. Spirometry, the Child Behavior Checklist, mean arterial pressure, and body mass index were used to determine construct validity of 33 items. These items were structured within five domains: pulmonary complaints, school functioning, growth and nutrition, exercise and locomotion, emotional functioning and health care concerns. The questionnaire showed excellent internal consistency with Cronbach's alpha of 0.919. CONCLUSION This study developed a disease-specific parent-proxy instrument to measure health-related quality of life in children with bronchopulmonary dysplasia aged 4-8 years old, the BPD-QoL. All included items show construct validity and internal consistency reliability. Future research should focus on further validation and analysis of responsiveness and reliability.

Abstract
Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is a common complication of extreme prematurity, and its rate is not improving, despite advances in perinatal intensive care. Children with BPD diagnosed in the neonatal period have higher risks for hospitalizations for respiratory problems over the first few years of life, and they have more asthma in later childhood. Neonates diagnosed with BPD have substantial airway obstruction on lung function testing in later childhood and early adulthood, and many are destined to develop adult chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Survivors with neonatal BPD have more adverse motor function, worse cognitive development and poorer academic progress than those without BPD. Long-term outcomes for children born extremely preterm will improve if the rate of BPD can be substantially reduced.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is the most frequent serious complication in preterm infants. We aimed to describe lung structure and ventilatory function of preterm infants with severe BPD and explored the association between early postnatal growth and these outcomes. METHODS We included preterm infants born ≤32 weeks gestational age (GA) with severe BPD. Lung structure was assessed on chest CT with the PRAGMA-BPD scoring system and ventilatory function by polysomnography (PSG) at 6 months corrected age. Postnatal growth was assessed by weight measured at birth, and at 2 and 6 months corrected age. RESULTS We included 49 infants (median [IQR] GA of 25.7 [24.6-26.3] weeks and mean [SD] birth weight of 760 [210] g). A 95.5% of the chest CT scans showed architectural distortion of the lung, and an oxygen desaturation index (ODI) >5 was found in 74% of the infants. An increase in GA of 1 week was associated with higher total and normal lung volume (β coefficient [95% CI]: 1.86 [0.15, 3.57] and 2.03 [0.41, 3.65]), less hypoattenuation (-4.3 [-7.70, -0.90]%) and lower ODI (-36.7 [-64.2, -9.10]%). Higher weight at 6 months was independently associated with higher total and normal lung volume, and with less severe desaturations. Increased weight gain between 2 and 6 months of corrected age was associated with less severe desaturations during sleep (β coefficient [95% CI]: 2.09 [0.49, 3.70]). CONCLUSION Most preterm infants with severe BPD have structural lung abnormalities and impaired ventilatory function early in life, partly explained by birth characteristics and infant growth.
