Summary

The purpose of this research is to determine the effect of premature birth on later heart function and metabolism.

Detailed description

The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of premature birth on cardiac function, cardiac metabolism, and oxidative stress in a cohort of young adults born prematurely using cardiac positron emission tomography/magnetic resonance imaging and mitochondrial respiration studies.

Conditions

• Infant,Premature
