Postnatal Corticosteroids to Prevent or Treat Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia
Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) remains a major morbidity for infants born preterm. Postnatal corticosteroids might reduce the risk of developing BPD, or reduce its severity when it occurs, because of their powerful anti-inflammatory effects.

Postnatal steroid management in preterm infants with evolving bronchopulmonary dysplasia
Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is a chronic lung disease commonly affecting extremely preterm infants. Although mechanical ventilation and oxygen requirements in premature infants are identified as inciting mechanisms for inflammation and the ...

Hyperoxia-induced bronchopulmonary dysplasia: better models for better therapies
Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is a chronic lung disease caused by exposure to high levels of oxygen (hyperoxia) and is the most common complication that affects preterm newborns. At present, there is no cure for BPD.

Lung growth and pulmonary function after prematurity and bronchopulmonary dysplasia
Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) still carries a heavy burden of morbidity and mortality in survivors of extreme prematurity. The disease is characterized by simplification of the alveolar structure, involving a smaller number of enlarged alveoli due to ...

The Diagnosis of Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia in Very Preterm Infants. An Evidence-based Approach
Rationale: Current diagnostic criteria for bronchopulmonary dysplasia rely heavily on the level and duration of oxygen therapy, do not reflect contemporary neonatal care, and do not adequately predict childhood morbidity.

RATIONALE Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is a heterogenous condition with poorly characterized disease subgroups. OBJECTIVES To define the frequency of three disease components: moderate-severe parenchymal disease, pulmonary hypertension (PH), or ...

Association Between Intermittent Hypoxemia and Severe Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia in Preterm Infants.
RATIONALE Bronchopulmonary dysplasia increases the risk of disability in extremely preterm infants. Although the pathophysiology remains uncertain, prior exposure to intermittent hypoxemia may play a role in this relationship.

Pulmonary hypertension in bronchopulmonary dysplasia
Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is a major complication in prematurely born infants. Pulmonary hypertension (PH) associated with BPD (BPD-PH) is characterized by alveolar diffusion impairment, abnormal vascular remodeling, and rarefication of pulmonary ...

Pulmonary hypertension in the child with bronchopulmonary dysplasia
Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is the most common chronic lung disease of prematurity resulting from complex interactions of perinatal factors that often lead to prolonged respiratory support and increased pulmonary morbidity.

Present and Future of Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia
Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is the most common respiratory disorder among infants born extremely preterm. The pathogenesis of BPD involves multiple prenatal and postnatal mechanisms affecting the development of a very immature lung.
