Design and feasibility of “PREMATurity as predictor of children's Cardiovascular–renal Health” (PREMATCH): A pilot study
The microvasculature and macrovasculature undergo extensive, organ-specific perinatal maturation. Multiple studies show associations between low birth weight and subsequent cardiovascular dysfunction in adulthood, suggesting that extreme preterm birth interferes with this maturation process. Therefore, we designed PREMATCH (PREMATurity as predictor of Cardiovascular-renal Health) to phenotype t...
متن کاملImpaired microvascular vasodilatory function in 3-month-old infants of low birth weight.
OBJECTIVE Low birth weight has been linked to an increased risk of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease in adult life. The fetal insulin hypothesis proposed that a genetic predisposition to insulin resistance may also influence vascular development. Therefore, impaired vascular function may be an intrinsic abnormality in low-birth weight infants that antedates clinical features of the ins...
متن کاملEffect of weight loss on the cardiovascular risk profile of obese patients with psoriasis.
Psoriasis is associated with obesity and other cardiovascular risk factors including endothelial dysfunction. We aimed to investigate the effects of weight loss on the cardiovascular risk profile of obese patients with psoriasis. A randomised controlled study was conducted in which we measured the microvascular endothelial function with peripheral arterial tonometry (PAT), selected plasma marke...
متن کاملP-41: Low Birth Weight Prevalence among theNewborns and Potential Risk Factors
Background: Low birth weight can contribute to many complications in neonatal period and even infancy and later. This study was performed to assess the prevalence of low birth weight in two cities of Iran and also to evaluate the potential risk factors of it. Materials and Methods: This was a cross-sectional study, performed on 1513 pregnant women attending delivery facilities in educational ho...
متن کاملHigh birth weight is associated with obesity and increased carotid wall thickness in young adults: the cardiovascular risk in young Finns study.
OBJECTIVE There is some evidence that people born with high birth weight may be at increased risk of cardiovascular disease in adulthood. Details of the underlying mechanisms remain unknown. We sought to determine whether people born large for gestational age have poor arterial health, increased adiposity, and a poor cardiovascular risk factor profile. APPROACH AND RESULTS Carotid intima-medi...
