Description
Summary:The aim of this meta-analysis was to determine the incidence and risk factors of early pulmonary hypertension (PHT) in preterm infants and evaluate the association of early PHT with morbidities such as bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), late PHT, and in-hospital mortality. We searched the PubMed (1980–2021), Embase (1968–2021), CINAHL (2002–2021), Cochrane library (1989–2021), and KoreaMed (1993–2021).
