Résumé

OBJECTIVE: To determine risk factors for high blood pressure (BP), increased markers of glomerulosclerosis, and tubular dysfunction in 4-year-old preterm-born children. STUDY DESIGN: The study group was a longitudinal cohort of 119 children with BP, albuminuria, and beta2 microglobulin measurements obtained during the neonatal period and at age 4 years. RESULTS: Systolic BP was >95(th) percentile in 15 (12.6%) of the children at age 4 years and lower in those born small for gestational age compared with those born appropriate for gestational age.
