BACKGROUND: Neurofilament light (NfL) has been identified as a biomarker for neuroaxonal damage in preterm infants, but its relation with bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) has not been established. We hypothesized that BPD is associated with increased NfL levels at an early stage, indicative of early neuroaxonal damage.
METHODS: We included preterm infants born <30 weeks of gestation for assessment of NfL levels from cord blood and blood obtained at postnatal days 3, 7, 14, and 28. We used linear regression analysis to compare NfL levels between infants with moderate/severe BPD and infants with no/mild BPD, and linear mixed model analysis to compare the effect of time on NfL levels between groups.
RESULTS: Sixty-seven infants with a gestational age (GA) of 27 ± 1.3 weeks were included for analysis, of whom 19 (28%) developed moderate/severe BPD. Although NfL levels were higher at every time point in infants with BPD, statistical significance was lost after adjustment for GA, small for gestational age (SGA) and intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH). Groups did not differ in NfL change over time.
CONCLUSIONS: The positive association between BPD and NfL in the first weeks of life could be explained by GA, SGA and IVH rather than by development of BPD.
IMPACT: Neurofilament light chain (NfL) is a known biomarker for neuroaxonal damage. Biomarkers for brain damage during the first weeks of life in preterm infants developing BPD are lacking. NfL levels obtained during the first weeks of life did not differ between infants with and without BPD in analyses adjusted for GA, SGA, and IVH.
