    Abstract Background: Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a life-threatening condition in newborns. We aimed to assess the clinical and echocardiographic responses of term and preterm infants to treprostinil.
    Methods: This retrospective study included newborns diagnosed with PH and treated with treprostinil as additional therapy after inhaled nitric oxide administration in the neonatal intensive care unit of a tertiary center. Term and preterm infants were compared in terms of echocardiographic findings and clinical findings 4 weeks after treprostinil treatment.
    Results: During the study period, 11 term and 18 preterm infants were diagnosed with PH and received treprostinil. There were no differences in the echocardiographic findings of interventricular septal deviation, direction of shunt, and ratio of estimated pulmonary artery pressure over systolic blood pressure. Congenital diaphragmatic hernia was the most common condition occurring upon PH diagnosis among term infants, while severe bronchopulmonary dysplasia was the most common in preterm infants. Improvements in echocardiographic findings were more pronounced in term infants than in preterm infants (100% vs. 55.6%, P = 0.012). The inhaled nitric oxide dose was gradually tapered for term infants and was lower than that for preterm infants at 1, 2, and 3 weeks after treprostinil.
    Conclusion: Intravenous treprostinil could be an adjuvant therapy option for term and preterm infants with PH, especially for those who cannot receive oral medication. The efficacy and safety of treprostinil in this population with PH should be investigated further.

    Abstract Background: Several studies have identified graded oxygen saturation targets to prevent retinopathy of prematurity (ROP), a serious complication in preterm infants. We aimed to analyze the critical period of oxygen supplementation and/or invasive ventilation associated with severe ROP.
    Methods: This retrospective case-control study included neonates with a gestational age (GA) < 29 weeks. Participants were divided into two groups: treated retinopathy and untreated/no retinopathy. Time-weighted average FiO
    Results: Data from 287 neonates were analyzed; 98 were treated for ROP and had lower GAs (25.5 vs. 27.4 weeks, p < 0.01) and lower birthweights (747.6 vs. 1014 g, p < 0.001) than those with untreated/no ROP. TWAFiO
    Conclusions: Amount of oxygen supplementation and/or invasive ventilation during the first 7 weeks of life or up to 31 weeks PMA was associated with development of severe ROP. This period might be candidate timing for strict oxygen supplementation strategies in preterm infants, while concerns of mortality with low oxygen supplementation should be further explored.

    Abstract Background: The definition of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) has been evolved recently from definition by the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development in 2001 (NICHD 2001) to the definition reported in 2018 (NICHD 2018) and that proposed by Jensen et al. in 2019 (NICHD 2019). The definition was developed based on the evolution of non-invasive respiratory support and to achieve better prediction of later outcomes. Our objective was to evaluate the association between different definitions of BPD and occurrence of pulmonary hypertension (PHN) and long term outcomes.
    Methods: This retrospective study enrolled preterm infants born at < 32 weeks of gestation between 2014 and 2018. The association between re-hospitalization owing to a respiratory illness until a corrected age (CA) of 24 months, neurodevelopmental impairment (NDI) at a CA of 18-24 months, and PHN at a postmenstrual age (PMA) of 36 weeks was evaluated, with the severity of BPD defined based on these three definitions.
    Results: Among 354 infants, the gestational age and birth weight were the lowest in severe BPD based on the NICHD 2019 definition. In total, 14.1% of the study population experienced NDI and 19.0% were re-hospitalized owing to a respiratory illness. At a PMA of 36 weeks, PHN was identified in 9.2% of infants with any BPD. Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that the adjusted odds ratio (OR) for re-hospitalization was the highest for Grade 3 BPD of the NICHD 2019 criteria (5.72, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.37-23.92), while the adjusted OR of Grade 3 BPD was 4.96 (95% CI: 1.73-14.23) in the NICHD 2018 definition. Moreover, no association of the severity of BPD was found in the NICHD 2001 definition. The adjusted ORs for NDI (12.09, 95% CI: 2.52-58.05) and PHN (40.37, 95% CI: 5.15-316.34) were also the highest for Grade 3 of the NICHD 2019 criteria.
    Conclusion: Based on recently suggested criteria by the NICHD in 2019, BPD severity is associated with long-term outcomes and PHN at a PMA of 36 weeks in preterm infants.

    Abstract Background: Vancomycin (VCM) is a widely used antibiotic for the treatment of gram-positive microorganisms, with some nephrotoxic effects. Recent studies have suggested that piperacillin-tazobactam (TZP) aggravates VCM-induced nephrotoxicity in adults and adolescents. However, there is a lack of research investigating these effects in the newborn population. Therefore, this study investigates whether the concomitant use of TZP with VCM use increases the risk of acute kidney injury (AKI) and to explore the factors associated with AKI in preterm infants treated with VCM.
    Methods: This retrospective study included preterm infants with birth weight < 1,500 g in a single tertiary center who were born between 2018 and 2021 and received VCM for a minimum of 3 days. AKI was defined as an increase in serum creatinine (SCr) of at least 0.3 mg/dL and an increase in SCr of at least 1.5 times baseline during and up to 1 week after discontinuation of VCM. The study population was categorized as those with or without concomitant use of TZP. Data on perinatal and postnatal factors associated with AKI were collected and analyzed.
    Results: Of the 70 infants, 17 died before 7 postnatal days or antecedent AKI and were excluded, while among the remaining participants, 25 received VCM with TZP (VCM + TZP) and 28 VCM without TZP (VCM-TZP). Gestational age (GA) at birth (26.4 ± 2.8 weeks vs. 26.5 ± 2.6 weeks, p = 0.859) and birthweight (750.4 ± 232.2 g vs. 838.1 ± 268.7 g, p = 0.212) were comparable between the two groups. There were no significant differences in the incidence of AKI between groups. Multivariate analysis showed that GA (adjusted OR: 0.58, 95% CI: 0.35-0.98, p = 0.042), patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) (adjusted OR: 5.23, 95% CI: 0.67-41.05, p = 0.115), and necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) (adjusted OR: 37.65, 95% CI: 3.08-459.96, p = 0.005) were associated with AKI in the study population.
    Conclusions: In very low birthweight infants, concomitant use of TZP did not increase the risk of AKI during VCM administration. Instead, a lower GA, and NEC were associated with AKI in this population.

    Abstract The aim of this meta-analysis was to determine the incidence and risk factors of early pulmonary hypertension (PHT) in preterm infants and evaluate the association of early PHT with morbidities such as bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), late PHT, and in-hospital mortality. We searched the PubMed (1980-2021), Embase (1968-2021), CINAHL (2002-2021), Cochrane library (1989-2021), and KoreaMed (1993-2021). Observational studies on the association between early PHT diagnosed within the first 2 weeks after birth and its clinical outcomes in preterm infants born before 37 weeks of gestation or with very low birth weight (< 1500 g) were included. Two authors independently extracted the data and assessed the quality of each study using a modified Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. We performed meta-analysis using Comprehensive Meta-Analysis version 3.3. A total of 1496 potentially relevant studies were found, of which 8 studies (7 cohort studies and 1 case-control study) met the inclusion criteria comprising 1435 preterm infants. The event rate of early PHT was 24% (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.174-0.310). The primary outcome of our study was moderate to severe BPD at 36 weeks postmenstrual age, and it was associated with early PHT (6 studies; odds ratio [OR] 1.682; 95% CI 1.262-2.241; P < 0.001; heterogeneity: I

    Abstract Perinatal outcomes of twin pregnancies are determined by several factors, such as gestational age (GA), chorionicity, and discordance at birth. This retrospective study aimed to investigate the association of chorionicity and discordance with neonatal and neurodevelopmental outcomes in preterm twin infants from uncomplicated pregnancy. Data of very preterm twin infants who were both live-born between 2014 and 2019 on the chorionicity of the twin, diagnosis of the twin-to-twin syndrome (TTTS), weight discordance at birth, and neonatal and neurodevelopmental outcomes at 24 months of corrected age (CA) were collected. Of the 204 twin infants analyzed, 136 were dichorionic (DC) and 68 were monochorionic (MC), including 15 pairs with TTTS. After adjusting for GA, brain injury, including severe intraventricular hemorrhage and periventricular leukomalacia, was mostly found in the MC with TTTS group, with a higher incidence of cerebral palsy and motor delay at CA 24 months. After excluding TTTS, multivariable analysis showed no association between chorionicity and neonatal and developmental outcomes, whereas small infants among co-twins (adjusted odds ratio (aOR) 3.33, 95% confidence interval 1.03-10.74) and greater discordance (%) of weight at birth (aOR 1.04, 1.00-1.07) were associated with neurodevelopmental impairment. Monochorionicity might not determine adverse outcomes among very preterm twins from uncomplicated pregnancy.

    Abstract Importance: Postnatal growth may be associated with longitudinal brain development in children born preterm.
    Objective: To compare brain microstructure and functional connectivity strength with cognitive outcomes in association with postnatal growth among early school-aged children born preterm with extremely low birth weight.
    Design, setting, and participants: This single-center cohort study prospectively enrolled 38 children 6 to 8 years of age born preterm with extremely low birth weight: 21 with postnatal growth failure (PGF) and 17 without PGF. Children were enrolled, past records were retrospectively reviewed, and imaging data and cognitive assessments occurred from April 29, 2013, through February 14, 2017. Image processing and statistical analyses were conducted through November 2021.
    Exposure: Postnatal growth failure in the early neonatal period.
    Main outcomes and measures: Diffusion tensor images and resting-state functional magnetic resonance images were analyzed. Cognitive skills were tested using the Wechsler Intelligence Scale; executive function was assessed based on a composite score calculated from the synthetic composite of the Children's Color Trails Test, STROOP Color and Word Test, and Wisconsin Card Sorting Test; attention function was evaluated using the Advanced Test of Attention (ATA); and the Hollingshead Four Factor Index of Social Status-Child was estimated.
    Results: Twenty-one children born preterm with PGF (14 girls [66.7%]), 17 children born preterm without PGF (6 girls [35.3%]), and 44 children born full term (24 girls [54.5%]) were recruited. Attention function was less favorable in children with PGF than those without PGF (mean [SD] ATA score: children with PGF, 63.5 [9.4]; children without PGF, 55.7 [8.0]; P = .008). Significantly lower mean (SD) fractional anisotropy in the forceps major of the corpus callosum (0.498 [0.067] vs 0.558 [0.044] vs 0.570 [0.038]) and higher mean (SD) mean diffusivity in the left superior longitudinal fasciculus-parietal bundle (8.312 [0.318] vs 7.902 [0.455] vs 8.083 [0.393]; originally calculated as millimeter squared per second and rescaled 10 000 times as mean diffusivity × 10 000) were seen among children with PGF compared with children without PGF and controls, respectively. Decreased resting-state functional connectivity strength was observed in the children with PGF. The mean diffusivity of the forceps major of the corpus callosum significantly correlated with the attention measures (r = 0.225; P = .047). Functional connectivity strength between the left superior lateral occipital cortex and both superior parietal lobules correlated with cognitive outcomes of intelligence (right superior parietal lobule, r = 0.262; P = .02; and left superior parietal lobule, r = 0.286; P = .01) and executive function (right superior parietal lobule, r = 0.367; P = .002; and left superior parietal lobule, r = 0.324; P = .007). The ATA score was positively correlated with functional connectivity strength between the precuneus and anterior division of the cingulate gyrus (r = 0.225; P = .048); however, it was negatively correlated with functional connectivity strength between the posterior cingulate gyrus and both superior parietal lobules (the right superior parietal lobule [r = -0.269; P = .02] and the left superior parietal lobule [r = -0.338; P = .002]).
    Conclusions and relevance: This cohort study suggests that the forceps major of the corpus callosum and the superior parietal lobule were vulnerable regions in preterm infants. Preterm birth and suboptimal postnatal growth could have negative associations with brain maturation, including altered microstructure and functional connectivity. Postnatal growth may be associated with differences in long-term neurodevelopment among children born preterm.

    Abstract Reduced complexity during the writhing period can be crucial in the spontaneous movements of high-risk infants for neurologic impairment. This study aimed to verify the association between quantified complexity of upper and lower-limb movements at term-equivalent age and motor development in very-preterm or very-low-birth-weight infants. Video images of spontaneous movements at term-equivalent age were collected from very-preterm or very-low-birth-weight infants. A pretrained pose-estimation model and sample entropy (SE) quantified the complexity of the upper- and lower-limb movements. Motor development was evaluated at 9 months of corrected age using Bayley Scales of Infant and Toddler Development, Third Edition. The SE measures were compared between infants with and without motor developmental delay (MDD). Among 90 infants, 11 exhibited MDD. SE measures at most of the upper and lower limbs were significantly reduced in infants with MDD compared to those without MDD (p < 0.05). Composite scores in the motor domain showed significant positive correlations with SE measures at most upper and lower limbs (p < 0.05). The results show that limb-movement complexity at term-equivalent age is reduced in infants with MDD at 9 months of corrected age. SE of limb movements can be a potentially useful kinematic parameter to detect high-risk infants for MDD.

    Abstract Although impaired neurodevelopment is strongly associated with severe brain injury, most preterm infants survive without severe brain injury. In this study, the association of impaired neurodevelopment and neonatal morbidities of preterm infants was assessed after excluding those with severe brain injury. This was a retrospective study of very low birthweight infants in a single tertiary center. After excluding infants with severe brain injury, the study population was categorized as infants without intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) and with low-grade IVH. Neurodevelopmental outcomes at a corrected age (CA) of 18-24 months were evaluated using the Bayley Scales of Infant and Toddler Development 3rd Edition (Bayley-III). Cerebral palsy (CP), hearing impairment and blindness were also assessed and compared. Of 240 infants, 25 (11.6%) infants had combined neurodevelopmental impairment (NDI). In the multivariate analysis for combined NDI, small for gestational age (SGA) (adjusted OR 6.820, 95% confidence intervals (CI) 1.770-26.307), moderate to severe bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) (aOR 3.21, 95% CI 1.032-9.999) and severe retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) (aOR 5.669, 95% CI 1.132-28.396) were associated with combined NDI. Among neonatal morbidities, moderate to severe BPD and severe ROP were associated with adverse neurodevelopmental outcomes in preterm infants without severe brain injury.
