Pulmonary hypertension in newborn infants is a significant problem that is very difficult to treat because we do not understand how blood flow through the lungs increases at birth. We have recently shown that currently believed mechanisms controlling blood flow at birth are incorrect and additional factors exist. Our experiments will determine factors that affect blood flow through the lungs at birth. This information will be used to improve the care of newborns with pulmonary hypertension.

新生儿的肺动脉高压是一个很难治疗的重要问题，因为我们不知道出生时通过肺部的血流是如何增加的。我们最近表明，目前认为的出生时控制血流的机制是不正确的，还存在其他因素。我们的实验将确定影响出生时肺部血流的因素。这些信息将用于改善新生儿肺动脉高压的护理。
