Abstract

Our aim was to determine respiratory function at 8 years of age in extremely low birth weight (ELBW; birth weight, < 1,000 g)/very preterm (< 28 weeks of gestation) children born in the 1990s compared with normal birth weight (NBW; birth weight, >2,499 g) controls. The ELBW/very preterm subjects comprised 298 consecutive survivors with either birth weight < 1,000 g or gestational age < 28 weeks born in the state of Victoria during 1991-1992. Controls comprised 262 randomly selected NBW survivors. Respiratory function was measured on 81% (240/298) of the ELBW/very preterm children and 79% (208/262) of the NBW controls. Respiratory function variables reflecting airflow were substantially diminished in ELBW/very preterm children compared with NBW controls. Moreover, the proportions with clinically important reductions in airflow were higher in the ELBW/very preterm group (e.g., forced expired volume in 1 sec, < 75%; ELBW/very preterm, 19.7%; NBW, 2.4%; P < 0.0001). Within the ELBW/very preterm group, children who had bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) in the newborn period and those who had later asthma had significantly reduced respiratory function in variables reflecting airflow. In conclusion, the abnormalities in respiratory fun...Continue Reading

Asthma

This feed focuses in Asthma in which your airways narrow and swell. This can make breathing difficult and trigger coughing, wheezing and shortness of breath.

Allergy and Asthma

Allergy and asthma are inflammatory disorders that are triggered by the activation of an allergen-specific regulatory t cell. These t cells become activated when allergens are recognized by allergen-presenting cells. Here is the latest research on allergy and asthma.
