Abstract
Background: Individuals born preterm present left ventricle changes and increased risk of cardiac diseases and heart failure. The pathophysiology of heart disease after preterm birth is incompletely understood. Mitochondria dysfunction is a hallmark of cardiomyopathy resulting in heart failure. We hypothesized that neonatal hyperoxia in rats, a recognized model simulating preterm birth conditions and resulting in oxygen-induced cardiomyopathy, induce left ventricle mitochondrial changes in juvenile rats. We also hypothesized that humanin, a mitochondrial-derived peptide, would be reduced in young adults born preterm. Methods: Sprague-Dawley pups were exposed to room air (controls) or 80% O 2 at postnatal days 3 to 10 (oxygen-induced cardiomyopathy). We studied left ventricle mitochondrial changes in 4 weeks old males. In a cohort of young adults born preterm (n=55) and age-matched term (n=54), we compared circulating levels of humanin. Results: Compared with controls, oxygen-exposed rats showed smaller left ventricle mitochondria with disrupted integrity on electron microscopy, decreased oxidative phosphorylation, increased glycolysis markers, and reduced mitochondrial biogenesis and abundance. In oxygen-exposed rats, we observed lipid deposits, increased superoxide production (isolated cardiomyocytes), and reduced Nrf2 gene expression. In the cohort, left ventricle ejection fraction and peak global longitudinal strain were similar between groups however humanin levels were lower in preterm and associated with left ventricle ejection fraction and peak global longitudinal strain. Conclusions: In conclusion, neonatal hyperoxia impaired left ventricle mitochondrial structure and function in juvenile animals. Serum humanin level was reduced in preterm adults. This study suggests that preterm birth–related conditions entail left ventricle mitochondrial alterations that may underlie cardiac changes perpetuated into adulthood.

Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
