    Abstract Preterm birth occurs in 10% of all live births and creates challenges to neonatal life, which persist into adulthood. Significant previous work has been undertaken to characterize and understand the respiratory and cardiovascular sequelae of preterm birth, which are present in adulthood, i.e., "late" outcomes. However, many gaps in knowledge are still present and there are several challenges that will make filling these gaps difficult. In this perspective we discuss the obstacles of studying adults born preterm, including (1) the need for invasive (direct) measures of physiologic function; (2) the need for multistate, multinational, and diverse cohorts; (3) lack of socialized medicine in the United States; (4) need for detailed and better-organized birth records; and (5) transfer of neonatal and pediatric knowledge to adult care physicians. We conclude with a discussion on the "future" of studying preterm birth in regards to what may happen to these individuals as they approach middle and older age and how the improvements in perinatal and postnatal care may be changing the phenotypes observed in adults born preterm on or after the year 2000.

    Abstract Adults born preterm, regardless of whether they develop bronchopulmonary dysplasia, have underdeveloped respiratory and cardiopulmonary systems. The resulting impaired respiratory and cardiopulmonary systems are inadequate for the challenges imposed by aerobic exercise, which is exacerbated by the presence of bronchopulmonary dysplasia. Thus the respiratory and cardiopulmonary systems of these preterm individuals may be the most influential contributors to the significantly lower aerobic exercise capacity compared with their term born counterparts. The precise underlying cause(s) of the lower aerobic exercise capacity in adults born preterm is not entirely known but could be a number of interrelated parameters including mechanical ventilatory constraints, impaired pulmonary gas exchange efficiency, and excessive cardiopulmonary pressures. Likewise, additional aspects, such as impaired cardiovascular function and altered muscle bioenergetics, may play additional roles in limiting aerobic exercise capacity. Whether or not all or some of these aspects are present in adults born preterm and precisely how they may contribute to the lower aerobic exercise capacity are only beginning to be systematically explored. The purpose of this mini-review is to outline what is currently known about the respiratory and cardiopulmonary limitations during exercise in this population and to identify key areas where additional knowledge will help to advance this area. Additionally, where possible, we highlight the similarities and differences between obstructive lung disease resulting from preterm birth and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) as the physiology and pathophysiology of these two forms of obstructive lung disease may not be identical.

    Abstract It was not until 1984 that women were permitted to compete in the Olympic marathon. Today, more women than men participate in road racing in all distances except the marathon where participation is near equal. From the period of 1985 to 2004, the women's marathon record improved at a rate three times greater than men's. This has led many to question whether women are capable of surpassing men despite the fact that there remains a 10-12% performance gap in all distance events.

    Abstract Transthoracic saline contrast echocardiography is commonly used to assess intrathoracic shunt flow in vivo. Though the technique has many advantages (safe, simple, repeatable), the measurement technique lacks specificity, and the contrast agent has limited stability. This study sought to determine if the indicator dilution modeling technique could be applied to ultrasound contrast data to quantify shunt fraction and to determine if buoyant force has a significant effect on microbubble pathway determination at a "vascular" bifurcation. A model of the pulmonary circuit was perfused with blood at three distinct flow rates (low, medium and high) over shunt fractions ranging from ∼2-10 %. The buoyancy effect on contrast was quantified using a simplified in vitro model of a vascular bifurcation that had an upper and lower outflow tract where saline contrast formed from carbon monoxide (CO) gas passed through the bifurcation, was collected and quantified. The indicator dilution model was found to have a mean bias of - 3.2 % for the low flow stage, - 2.6 % for the medium flow stage and - 1.4 % for the high flow stage compared to volumetric measurements, suggesting agreement increases with increasing flow rate. Investigations of the buoyant effects revealed that at lower flow rates, contrast bubbles that encounter a bifurcation will favor the upper outflow tract over the lower. However, this effect is reduced by increasing the flow rate two-fold. These data identify that application of indicator dilution theory to contrast ultrasound data and the pathway ultrasound contrast travels in a network of tubules is flow dependent.

    Abstract Progressive improvements in perinatal care and respiratory management of preterm infants have resulted in increased survival of newborns of extremely low gestational age over the past few decades. However, the incidence of bronchopulmonary dysplasia, the chronic lung disease after preterm birth, has not changed. Studies of the long-term follow-up of adults born preterm have shown persistent abnormalities of respiratory, cardiovascular and cardiopulmonary function, possibly leading to a lower exercise capacity. The underlying causes of these abnormalities are incompletely known, but we hypothesize that dysanapsis, i.e. discordant growth and development, in the respiratory and cardiovascular systems is a central structural feature that leads to a lower exercise capacity in young adults born preterm than those born at term. We discuss how the hypothesized system dysanapsis underscores the observed respiratory, cardiovascular and cardiopulmonary limitations. Specifically, adults born preterm have: (1) normal lung volumes but smaller airways, which causes expiratory airflow limitation and abnormal respiratory mechanics but without impacts on pulmonary gas exchange efficiency; (2) normal total cardiac size but smaller cardiac chambers; and (3) in some cases, evidence of pulmonary hypertension, particularly during exercise, suggesting a reduced pulmonary vascular capacity despite reduced cardiac output. We speculate that these underlying developmental abnormalities may accelerate the normal age-associated decline in exercise capacity, via an accelerated decline in respiratory, cardiovascular and cardiopulmonary function. Finally, we suggest areas of future research, especially the need for longitudinal and interventional studies from infancy into adulthood to better understand how preterm birth alters exercise capacity across the lifespan.
