| Popis: | BACKGROUND The effect of inadequate vitamin A during the neonatal period on lung status is still unknown. OBJECTIVE We tested the hypothesis that low plasma retinol concentrations during the first month of life are independently associated with bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) and long-term respiratory morbidity at 6 mo gestationally corrected age (ie, the age the infant would be had the pregnancy gone to term). DESIGN Respiratory outcome information was obtained to 6 mo corrected age for a historical cohort of very-low-birth-weight neonates ( |
