RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Antenatal pathological conditions are key in the pathogenesis of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). Pathophysiological pathways or endotypes leading to prematurity and perinatal lung injury can be clustered into two groups: infection and dysfunctional placentation, which include hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) and intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR). We conducted a systematic review of observational studies exploring the association between the dysfunctional placentation endotype and BPD. METHODS: MEDLINE, Embase and Web of Science databases were searched up to February 2020 for studies reporting data on the diagnosis of HDP, IUGR or small for gestational age (SGA) and BPD risk. BPD was classified as BPD28 (supplemental oxygen on day 28), BPD36 (oxygen at 36 weeks postmenstrual age), severe BPD (≥ 30% oxygen or mechanical ventilation), BPD36/death and BPD-associated pulmonary hypertension. RESULTS: Of 6319 studies screened, 211 (347 963 infants) were included. Meta-analysis showed an association between SGA/IUGR and BPD36 (OR 1.56, 95% CI 1.37 to 1.79), severe BPD (OR 1.82, 95% CI 1.36 to 2.29) and BPD/death (OR 1.91, 95% CI 1.55 to 2.37). Exposure to HDP was not associated with BPD but was associated with decreased odds of BPD/death (OR 0.77, 95% CI 0.64 to 0.94). Both HDP (OR 1.41, 95% CI 1.10 to 1.80) and SGA/IUGR (OR 2.37, 95% CI 1.86 to 3.02) were associated with BPD-associated pulmonary hypertension. CONCLUSION: When placental vascular dysfunction is accompanied by fetal growth restriction or being born SGA, it is associated with an increased risk of developing BPD and pulmonary hypertension. The placental dysfunction endotype of prematurity is strongly associated with the vascular phenotype of BPD. PROSPERO REGISTRATION NUMBER: Review protocol was registered in PROSPERO database (ID=CRD42018086877).

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Antenatal antibiotic exposure has been suggested as a risk factor for bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). We aimed to summarize the evidence from randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and observational studies on this potential association. METHODS: PubMed/Medline and Embase databases were searched. BPD was classified as BPD28 (supplemental oxygen during 28 days or at postnatal day 28), BPD36 (supplemental oxygen at 36 weeks postmenstrual age), BPD36 or death, and BPD-associated pulmonary hypertension (BPD-PH). Bayesian model-averaged (BMA) meta-analysis was used to calculate Bayes factors (BFs). The BF10 is the ratio of the probability of the data under the alternative hypothesis (H1) over the probability of the data under the null hypothesis (H0). RESULTS: We included 6 RCTs and 27 observational studies (126,614 infants). Regarding BPD28, BMA showed that the evidence in favor of H0 (lack of association with antenatal antibiotics) was weak for the RCTS (BF10 = 0.506, 6 studies) and moderate for the observational studies (BF10 = 0.286, 10 studies). Regarding BPD36, the evidence in favor of H0 was moderate for the RCTs (BF10 = 0.127, 2 studies) and weak for the observational studies (BF10 = 0.895, 14 studies). Evidence in favor of H0 was also weak for the associations with BPD36 or death (BF10 = 0.429, 2 studies) and BPD-PH (BF10 = 0.384, 2 studies). None of the meta-analyses showed evidence in favor of H1. CONCLUSIONS: The currently available evidence suggests a lack of association between antenatal antibiotics and BPD. However, our results should not be interpreted as an argument for widespread use of antibiotics in the setting of preterm delivery.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: After lowering the Dutch threshold for active treatment from 25 to 24 completed weeks' gestation, survival to discharge increased by 10% in extremely preterm live born infants. Now that this guideline has been implemented, an accurate description of neurodevelopmental outcome at school age is needed. DESIGN: Population-based cohort study. SETTING: All neonatal intensive care units in the Netherlands. PATIENTS: All infants born between 240/7 and 266/7 weeks' gestation who were 5.5 years' corrected age (CA) in 2018-2020 were included. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Main outcome measure was neurodevelopmental outcome at 5.5 years. Neurodevelopmental outcome was a composite outcome defined as none, mild or moderate-to-severe impairment (further defined as neurodevelopmental impairment (NDI)), using corrected cognitive score (Wechsler Preschool and Primary Scale of Intelligence Scale-III-NL), neurological examination and neurosensory function. Additionally, motor score (Movement Assessment Battery for Children-2-NL) was assessed. All assessments were done as part of the nationwide, standardised follow-up programme. RESULTS: In the 3-year period, a total of 632 infants survived to 5.5 years' CA. Data were available for 484 infants (77%). At 5.5 years' CA, most cognitive and motor (sub)scales were significantly lower compared with the normative mean. Overall, 46% had no impairment, 36% had mild impairment and 18% had NDI. NDI-free survival was 30%, 49% and 67% in live born children at 24, 25 and 26 weeks' gestation, respectively (p<0.001). CONCLUSIONS: After lowering the threshold for supporting active treatment from 25 to 24 completed weeks' gestation, a considerable proportion of the surviving extremely preterm children did not have any impairment at 5.5 years' CA.

RESUMO

Different pathophysiological pathways (endotypes), leading to very preterm birth may result in distinct clinical phenotypes of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). Ureaplasma is a unique player in the pathogenesis of BPD. The interaction between factors inherent to Ureaplasma (virulence, bacterial load, duration of exposure), and to the host (immune response, infection clearance, degree of prematurity, respiratory support, concomitant infections) may contribute to BPD development in a variable manner. The data reviewed herein support the hypothesis that Ureaplasma, as a representative of the infectious/inflammatory endotype, may produce pulmonary damage predominantly in parenchyma, interstitium, and small airways. In contrast, Ureaplasma may have a very limited role in the pathogenesis of the vascular phenotype of BPD. In addition, if Ureaplasma is a key factor in BPD pathogenesis, its eradication by macrolides should prevent BPD. However, various meta-analyses do not show consistent evidence that this is the case. The limitations of current definitions and classifications of BPD, based on respiratory support needs instead of pathophysiology and phenotypes, may explain this and other failures in strategies aimed to prevent BPD. The precise mechanisms through which Ureaplasma infection leads to altered lung development and how these pathways can result in different BPD phenotypes warrant further investigation.

RESUMO

Importance: Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is often associated with pulmonary vascular disease and secondary pulmonary hypertension (PH). The pathogenesis of BPD-associated PH (BPD-PH) is complex and involves prenatal and postnatal factors that disrupt pulmonary vascular development, and patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) is a factor potentially associated with risk of BPD-PH that has been identified in very recent studies. Objective: To explore the association of PDA with BPD-PH using a bayesian model-averaged (BMA) meta-analysis of studies. Data Sources: PubMed and Embase were searched up to April 2023. Key search terms included BPD and PH. Study Selection: Studies examining infants with gestational age 32 weeks or less and reporting data on PDA and risk of BPD-PH. Data Extraction and Synthesis: This study followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses and the Meta-Analysis of Observational Studies in Epidemiology reporting guidelines. Two independent reviewers extracted data, with a third reviewer checking for accuracy and completeness. Data pooling and effect size calculations were performed by BMA. Main Outcomes and Measures: The primary outcome was BPD-PH. BMA was used to calculate Bayes factors (BFs). The BF10 is the ratio of the probability of the data under the alternative hypothesis (H1, association of PDA with BPD-HP) over the probability of the data under the null hypothesis (H0). Results: A total of 32 studies (8513 infants) were included. BMA showed that the evidence in favor of H1 was weak for any PDA (BF10 = 2.90; 10 studies), moderate for hemodynamically significant PDA (BF10 = 3.77; 3 studies), and extreme for surgically ligated or catheter-occluded PDA (BF10 = 294.9; 16 studies). In contrast, the evidence in favor of H0 was weak for medically treated PDA (BF10 = 0.55; 6 studies). In addition, BMA found strong evidence in favor of H1 when prolonged exposure to PDA was analyzed as a dichotomous variable (BF10 = 11.80; 6 studies) and extreme evidence (BF10 = 113.60; 3 studies) when PDA exposure time was analyzed as a continuous variable. Conclusions and Relevance: In this bayesian meta-analysis, the data suggest that prolonged exposure to PDA might be associated with increased risk of pulmonary vascular disease in extremely preterm infants. This highlights the need to monitor for PH in high-risk preterm infants with prolonged exposure to PDA and to incorporate PH risk into clinical decisions regarding PDA management.

RESUMO

Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), the chronic lung disease of prematurity, is increasingly recognized as the consequence of a pathological reparative response of the developing lung to both antenatal and postnatal injury. According to this view, the pathogenesis of BPD is multifactorial and heterogeneous with different patterns of antenatal stress (endotypes) that combine with varying postnatal insults and might distinctively damage the development of airways, lung parenchyma, interstitium, lymphatic system, and pulmonary vasculature. This results in different clinical phenotypes of BPD. There is no clear consensus on which are the endotypes of prematurity but the combination of clinical information with placental and bacteriological data enables the identification of two main pathways leading to birth before 32 weeks of gestation: (1) infection/inflammation and (2) dysfunctional placentation. Regarding BPD phenotypes, the following have been proposed: parenchymal, peripheral airway, central airway, interstitial, congestive, vascular, and mixed phenotype. In line with the approach of personalized medicine, endotyping prematurity and phenotyping BPD will facilitate the design of more targeted therapeutic and prognostic approaches.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: In 2010, the Dutch practice regarding initiation of active treatment in extremely preterm infants was lowered from 25 completed weeks' to 24 completed weeks' gestation. The nationwide Extremely Preterm Infants - Dutch Analysis on Follow-up Study was set up to provide up-to-date data on neurodevelopmental outcome at 2 years' corrected age (CA) after this guideline change. Design: National cohort study. PATIENTS: All live born infants between 240/7 weeks' and 266/7 weeks' gestational age who were 2 years' CA in 2018-2020. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE: Impairment at 2 years' CA, based on cognitive score (Bayley-III-NL), neurological examination and neurosensory function. RESULTS: 651 of 991 live born infants (66%) survived to 2 years' CA, with data available for 554 (85%). Overall, 62% had no impairment, 29% mild impairment and 9% moderate-to-severe impairment (further defined as neurodevelopmental impairment, NDI). The percentage of survivors with NDI was comparable for infants born at 24 weeks', 25 weeks' and 26 weeks' gestation. After multivariable analysis, severe brain injury and low maternal education were associated with higher odds on NDI. NDI-free survival was 48%, 67% and 75% in neonatal intensive care unit (NICU)-admitted infants at 24, 25 and 26 weeks' gestation, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Lowering the threshold has not been accompanied by a large increase in moderate-to-severely impaired infants. Among live-born and NICU-admitted infants, an increase in NDI-free survival was observed from 24 weeks' to 26 weeks' gestation. This description of a national cohort with high follow-up rates gives an accurate description of the range of outcomes that may occur after extremely preterm birth.

RESUMO

A widely accepted concept is that boys are more susceptible than girls to oxidative stress-related complications of prematurity, including bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), retinopathy of prematurity (ROP), necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC), intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH), and periventricular leukomalacia (PVL). We aimed to quantify the effect size of this male disadvantage by performing a systematic review and meta-analysis of cohort studies exploring the association between sex and complications of prematurity. Risk ratios (RRs) and 95% CIs were calculated by a random-effects model. Of 1365 potentially relevant studies, 41 met the inclusion criteria (625,680 infants). Male sex was associated with decreased risk of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, fetal distress, and C-section, but increased risk of low Apgar score, intubation at birth, respiratory distress, surfactant use, pneumothorax, postnatal steroids, late onset sepsis, any NEC, NEC > stage 1 (RR 1.12, CI 1.06-1.18), any IVH, severe IVH (RR 1.28, CI 1.22-1.34), severe IVH or PVL, any BPD, moderate/severe BPD (RR 1.23, CI 1.18-1.27), severe ROP (RR 1.14, CI 1.07-1.22), and mortality (RR 1.23, CI 1.16-1.30). In conclusion, preterm boys have higher clinical instability and greater need for invasive interventions than preterm girls. This leads to a male disadvantage in mortality and short-term complications of prematurity.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) remains an important cause for preventable blindness. Aside from gestational age (GA) and birth weight, risk factor assessment can be important for determination of infants at risk of (severe) ROP. METHODS: Prospective, multivariable risk-analysis study (NEDROP-2) was conducted, including all infants born in 2017 in the Netherlands considered eligible for ROP screening by pediatricians. Ophthalmologists provided data of screened infants, which were combined with risk factors from the national perinatal database (Perined). Clinical data and potential risk factors were compared to the first national ROP inventory (NEDROP-1, 2009). During the second period, more strict risk factor-based screening inclusion criteria were applied. RESULTS: Of 1,287 eligible infants, 933 (72.5%) were screened for ROP and matched with the Perined data. Any ROP was found in 264 infants (28.3% of screened population, 2009: 21.9%) and severe ROP (sROP) (stage ≥3) in 41 infants (4.4%, 2009: 2.1%). The risk for any ROP is decreased with a higher GA (odds ratio [OR] 0.59 and 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.54-0.66) and increased for small for GA (SGA) (1.73, 1.11-2.62), mechanical ventilation >7 days (2.13, 1.35-3.37) and postnatal corticosteroids (2.57, 1.44-4.66). For sROP, significant factors were GA (OR 0.37 and CI 0.27-0.50), SGA (OR 5.65 and CI 2.17-14.92), postnatal corticosteroids (OR 3.81 and CI 1.72-8.40), and perforated necrotizing enterocolitis (OR 7.55 and CI 2.29-24.48). CONCLUSION: In the Netherlands, sROP was diagnosed more frequently since 2009. No new risk factors for ROP were determined in the present study, apart from those already included in the current screening guideline.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: In the Netherlands, the threshold for offering active treatment for spontaneous birth was lowered from 25+0 to 24+0 weeks' gestation in 2010. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of guideline implementation on survival and causes and timing of death in the years following implementation. DESIGN: National cohort study, using data from the Netherlands Perinatal Registry. PATIENTS: The study population included all 3312 stillborn and live born infants with a gestational age (GA) between 240/7 and 266/7 weeks born between January 2011 and December 2017. Infants with the same GA born between January 2007 and December 2009 (N=1400) were used as the reference group. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Survival to discharge, as well as cause and timing of death. RESULTS: After guideline implementation, there was a significant increase in neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) admission rate for live born infants born at 24 weeks' GA (27%-69%, p<0.001), resulting in increased survival to discharge in 24-week live born infants (13%-34%, p<0.001). Top three causes of in-hospital mortality were necrotising enterocolitis (28%), respiratory distress syndrome (19%) and intraventricular haemorrhage (17%). A significant decrease in cause of death either complicated or caused by respiratory insufficiency was seen over time (34% in 2011-2014 to 23% in 2015-2017, p=0.006). CONCLUSIONS: Implementation of the 2010 guideline resulted as expected in increased NICU admissions rate and postnatal survival of infants born at 24 weeks' GA. In the years after implementation, a shift in cause of death was seen from respiratory insufficiency towards necrotising enterocolitis and sepsis.

RESUMO

Epidemiological evidence and animal studies support that intrauterine exposure to tobacco smoke disturbs lung development and has a negative effect in the pulmonary health of the offspring. Individual studies suggest an association between fetal exposure to maternal smoking and risk of developing bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). However, this association has not yet been systematically investigated. We aimed to conduct a systematic review of studies reporting on tobacco smoking during pregnancy as potential risk factor for BPD. PubMed/MEDLINE and EMBASE databases were searched. BPD was defined as requirement of supplemental oxygen on postnatal day 28 (BPD28; all BPD), at the postmenstrual age (PMA) of 36 weeks (BPD36; moderate/severe BPD), or as requirement of more than 30% oxygen and/or positive pressure at 36 weeks PMA (severe BPD). Pooled risk ratios (RR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated using a random-effects model. Of 2,894 potentially relevant studies, 33 met the inclusion criteria. The included studies evaluated 171,772 infants and included 30,445 cases of exposure to maternal smoking and 25,340 cases of BPD of any severity. Meta-analysis showed a significant association between tobacco smoking during pregnancy and BPD36 (17 studies, RR 1.126, 95% CI 1.008-1.259, p = 0.036), but could not demonstrate a significant association between tobacco smoking during pregnancy and BPD28 (16 studies, RR 1.021, 95% CI 0.924-1.129, p = 0.681), or severe BPD (3 studies, RR 1.143, 95% CI 0.528-2.478, p = 0.734). In conclusion, our data suggest that tobacco smoking during pregnancy increases the risk of moderate/severe BPD. Our results highlight the detrimental effects of tobacco smoking and reinforce the hypothesis of the involvement of prenatal insults in the etiopathogenesis of BPD.

RESUMO

Neonatal conjugated hyperbilirubinemia is a diagnostic challenge. A full term, small for gestational age boy presented with cholestasis, hypoglycemia, hyperferritinemia and severe bilateral deafness. Diagnostic work-up revealed two hereditary diseases: alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency (PI*ZZ genotype) and autosomal recessive deafness type 3 (compound heterozygous MYO15A gene mutation). In addition, we found late hypoglycemia on full enteral feeding which complicated this case. Hyperferritinemia is an uncommon finding in newborn cholestasis without liver failure.
