Right ventricular systolic dysfunction in young adults born preterm.
BACKGROUND Young adults born preterm have distinct differences in left ventricular mass, function, and geometry. Animal studies suggest that cardiomyocyte changes are evident in both ventricles after preterm birth; therefore, we investigated whether these young adults also have differences in their right ventricular structure and function. METHODS AND RESULTS We studied 102 preterm-born young...
متن کاملPhysical Fitness in Young Adults Born Preterm.
BACKGROUND Young adults born preterm have higher levels of cardiometabolic risk factors than their term-born peers. Muscular and cardiorespiratory fitness have important cardiometabolic and other health benefits. We assessed muscular, cardiorespiratory, and self-rated fitness in preterm-born young adults. METHODS We studied unimpaired participants of the ESTER (Ennenaikainen syntymä ja aikuis...
متن کاملIsolated right ventricular systolic dysfunction in scleroderma.
Scleroderma is a multi-systemic disease of the connective tissue, characterised by inflammatory alterations, occlusive microvascular lesions, and diverse forms of cutaneous and parenchymatous fibrosis. Although its pathogenesis is unsettled, various immune mechanisms have been implicated. Arthralgias, changes in oesophageal motility, spider veins, pulmonary fibrosis, and pulmonary arterial hype...
متن کاملProgression of Right Ventricular Systolic Dysfunction Detected by Myocardial Deformation Imaging in Asymptomatic Preterm Children
Background To detect progression of right ventricular (RV) systolic dysfunction (RVSD) in asymptomatic preterm children from infancy to 24-month corrected age, using velocity vector imaging (VVI). Methods Retrospective study comparing sequential RV longitudinal peak systolic strain (LPSS) from 24 children born at < 33 weeks of gestational age and 10 term infants recruited as controls, obtaine...
متن کاملCardiometabolic Risk Factors in Young Adults Who Were Born Preterm
Adults who were born preterm with a very low birth weight have higher blood pressure and impaired glucose regulation later in life compared with those born at term. We investigated cardiometabolic risk factors in young adults who were born at any degree of prematurity in the Preterm Birth and Early Life Programming of Adult Health and Disease (ESTER) Study, a population-based cohort study of in...
