    The study evaluated factors associated with death or moderate-to-severe bronchopulmonary dysplasia in very preterm infants.

  • 2

    Among 1,253 infants analyzed, the composite outcome occurred in 27.1%, with risk decreasing as gestational age increased.

  • 3

    Prolonged invasive ventilation and exposure to high frequency oscillatory ventilation were linked to higher odds of adverse outcomes.

  • 4

    Lower gestational age was identified as a principal factor associated with death or moderate-to-severe bronchopulmonary dysplasia.

  • 5

    The study highlights the importance of respiratory trajectory in linking early clinical risk factors to adverse outcomes.
