Intraamniotic Inflammation in Women with Preterm Prelabor Rupture of Membranes
OBJECTIVE To characterize subgroups of preterm prelabor rupture of membranes (PPROM) and short-term neonatal outcomes based on the presence and absence of intraamniotic inflammation (IAI) and/or microbial invasion of the amniotic cavity (MIAC). METHODS One hundred and sixty-six Caucasian women with singleton pregnancies were included in this study. Amniotic fluid samples were obtained by tran...
متن کاملSoluble TLR2 is present in human amniotic fluid and modulates the intraamniotic inflammatory response to infection.
TLRs are pattern recognition transmembrane receptors that play key roles in innate immunity. A recently discovered soluble truncated form of TLR2 (sTLR2) acts as a decoy receptor, down-regulating the host inflammatory response to bacteria. To identify the presence and functional role of sTLR2 in modulating the intraamniotic inflammatory response to infection, we studied 109 amniotic fluid sampl...
متن کاملAmniotic Sludge and Short Cervix as Inflammation and Intraamniotic Infection Markers
Submit Manuscript | http://medcraveonline.com membranes, passage of germs into the cavity and fetal swallowing of these and their inflammation products have been described by different authors. The arrival of germs to the amniotic cavity by haematogenous route is also possible but much less frequent. This process of ascent and colonization of the membranes by different microorganisms is general...
متن کاملAmniotic-fluid Lactoferrin: A Marker for Subclinical Intraamniotic Infection Prior to 32 Weeks Gestation
OBJECTIVE Lactoferrin is a glycoprotein released from the secondary granules of activated neutrophils in the setting of infection. The purpose of this study was to determine if amniotic-fluid (AF) lactoferrin levels are elevated in preterm labor (PTL) patients with subclinical intraamniotic infection (IAI). METHODS AF samples were obtained from 186 pregnant patients with the following charact...
متن کاملAmniotic fluid interleukin 6 in preterm labor. Association with infection.
To evaluate whether IL-6 participates in the host response to intrauterine infection, we studied IL-6 bioactivity and isoforms in amniotic fluid (AF). Two different assays for IL-6 were used: the hepatocyte stimulating factor assay (in Hep3B2 cells) and the SDS-PAGE/immunoblot assay. IL-6 determinations were performed in 205 AF samples. Samples were obtained from patients in the midtrimester of...
