Long-term outcome of parapneumonic effusions in children: Lung function and exercise tolerance.

abstract：:Recurrent respiratory symptoms are common in preterm infants in the first 2 years of life. The aim of this study was to determine the lung function abnormalities associated with such symptoms. Forty preterm infants, with a median gestational age of 29 weeks were studied at a median postnatal age of 12 months. Twenty-t...
