Background— Preterm birth leads to an early switch from fetal to postnatal circulation before
completion of left ventricular in utero development. In animal studies, this results in an …

Background— Young adults born preterm have distinct differences in left ventricular mass,
function, and geometry. Animal studies suggest that cardiomyocyte changes are evident in …

Background The medium-term effects of Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) on organ health,
exercise capacity, cognition, quality of life and mental health are poorly understood. Methods …

Preterm-born individuals have elevated blood pressure. We tested the hypothesis that this
associates with an enhanced antiangiogenic circulating profile and that this association is …

Background Feature Tracking software offers measurements of myocardial strain, velocities
and displacement from cine cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) images. We used it …

Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy affect up to 10% of pregnancies worldwide, which
includes the 3%–5% of all pregnancies complicated by preeclampsia. Preeclampsia is defined …

METHODS: A total of 926 preterm-born infants originally took part in a randomized controlled
trial of postnatal milk-feeding regimens between 1982 and 1985 across 5 different UK …

Background Quantitative T1-mapping is rapidly becoming a clinical tool in cardiovascular
magnetic resonance (CMR) to objectively distinguish normal from diseased myocardium. The …

Background Preterm birth affects about 10% of live births worldwide and is associated with
cardiac alterations. Animal models of preterm birth suggest that left ventricular functional …

Background The longitudinal trajectories of cardiopulmonary abnormalities and symptoms
following infection with coronavirus disease (COVID-19) are unclear. We sought to describe …
