NEHI is associated with substantial respiratory and extra-pulmonary morbidity. Failure to thrive may be associated with greater respiratory morbidity, though further studies are required to define this interaction. Determining the association of these comorbidities and respiratory course in NEHI may enable development of strategies to improve these modifiable factors and potentially pulmonary outcomes.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
