Official title
Platelet-activating Factor Acetylhydrolase (Paf-ah) Gene Expression And The Incidence Of Chronic Lung Disease (Cld) In Very Low Birth Weight Infants
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
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.
