There was a nonsignificant trend towards a reduced complement of RV cardiomyocytes in preterm lambs treated with low‐dose dexamethasone ( p = .061) compared to control preterm lambs. 3.7.

Although no differences in interstitial collagen were detected in the present study, there was induction of cardiomyocyte hypertrophy (highly significant increase in cardiomyocyte cross‐sectional area) in the LV + S of preterm lambs exposed to the high‐dose of dexamethasone.
