Day-to-day dynamics of fetal heart rate variability to detect chorioamnionitis in preterm premature rupture of membranes. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE
BackgroundChorioamnionitis is recognized as a major consequence of preterm premature rupture of membranes (PPROM), and a frequent cause of neonatal morbidity and mortality.

Gross appearance of the fetal membrane on the placental surface is associated with histological chorioamnionitis and neonatal respiratory disorders. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
An opaque fetal membrane based on gross appearance is traditionally indicative of histological chorioamnionitis; however, to the best of our knowledge, there is currently no supportive evidence, and its diagnostic efficiency has not yet been ...

Decreased Expression of Transforming Growth Factor-beta1 in Bronchoalveolar Lavage Cells of Preterm Infants with Maternal Chorioamnionitis [PDF]

open access: gold, 2008
Maternal chorioamnionitis has been associated with abnormal lung development. We examined the effect of maternal chorioamnionitis on the expression of transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-β1) in the lungs of preterm infants.

Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid from preterm infants with chorioamnionitis inhibits alveolar epithelial repair [PDF]

open access: yesRespiratory Research, 2009
Background Preterm infants are highly susceptible to lung injury. While both chorioamnionitis and antenatal steroids induce lung maturation, chorioamnionitis is also associated with adverse lung development. We investigated the ability of bronchoalveolar

Impact of early versus late artificial rupture of membranes during oxytocin induction of labour on the incidence of chorioamnionitis: a randomised controlled trial (ARM trial) [PDF]

open access: yesTrials
Background The approach to induction of labour differs internationally, with timing of amniotomy being controversial. Some institutions favour performing artificial rupture of membranes prior to commencement of oxytocin infusion, with the belief that the

Oral, nasal and pharyngeal exposure to lipopolysaccharide causes a fetal inflammatory response in sheep. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
BackgroundA fetal inflammatory response (FIR) in sheep can be induced by intraamniotic or selective exposure of the fetal lung or gut to lipopolysaccharide (LPS).

Chorioamnionitis: Is a major player in the development of bronchopulmonary dysplasia? [PDF]

open access: yesKorean Journal of Pediatrics, 2017
Chorioamnionitis is an inflammation in the fetal membranes or placenta. When chorioamnionitis develops, fetal lungs are exposed to inflammatory cytokines and mediators via amniotic fluid.

Variation in the infant health effects of the women, infants, and children program by predicted risk using novel machine learning methods

open access: yesHealth Economics, Volume 32, Issue 1, Page 194-217, January 2023., 2023
Abstract The Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) has an extensive literature documenting positive effects on infant health outcomes, specifically preterm birth, low birthweight, small size for gestational age, and infant mortality.

Placental pathology and neonatal encephalopathy

open access: yesInternational Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, Volume 160, Issue 1, Page 22-27, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Neonatal encephalopathy (NE) is an important cause of neonatal morbidity and mortality worldwide; however, there remain gaps in our knowledge about its pathogenesis. The placenta has been implicated in the pathogenesis of this disease but conclusive evidence related to the placental factors that influence it is sparse.
