Developmental changes in urinary elimination of theophylline and its metabolites in pediatric patients.

abstract：:Compliant immature airways sustain significant deformation following positive pressure ventilation. To evaluate the structural changes induced by in vivo positive pressure ventilation, tracheae of preterm lambs (107-116 d gestational age) were studied histologically.
