abstract：BACKGROUND:High blood pressure (BP) in childhood is frequently renal in origin and a risk factor for adult hypertension and cardiovascular disease. Shorter gestations are a known risk factor for increased BP in adults and children, due in part to a nephron deficit in children born preterm. As nephrogenesis is incomplet...
