Actual (reported)This is a prospective observational study to determine whether there is an association between the presence of platelet-activating factor acetylhydrolase (PAF-AH) gene polymorphisms and the development of chronic lung disease in very low birth wight infants. Infants \< 1500 grams at birth who require mechanical ventilation will be enrolled in the first 5 days of life after obtaining informed consent. A total of 1 ml of blood will be drawn and utilized for isolation of DNA for genotyping and for measurement of PAF-AH activity in serum.
Registry-reported information. Elapsed time and enrollment totals alone do not measure study progress or recruitment pace.

Actual (reported)Incidence of Chronic Lung Disease (CLD) and survival at 36 weeks corrected gestational age (CGA).
CLD will be defined as an oxygen requirement and abnormal x-ray findings. Investigations will compare outcomes of participants with genotypic variants of PAF-AH and those without known PAF-AH polymorphisms. Also, participant with biochemical evidence of PAF-AH dysregulation will be compared to those with normal PAF-AH protein and PAF concentrations.
at 36 weeks (CGA)
PAF-AH genotypic and phenotypic status in relation to multiple morbidities associated with prematurity.
18 months
Eligible Patients Patients hospitalized in the NICU who: 1. weigh ≤ 1500 grams at birth, 2. are enrolled at age ≤ 5 days, 3. require mechanical ventilation or continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP), 4. have parents or guardians that have signed the informed consent document. Excluded Patients Infants with major congenital anomalies will be excluded.
