The Consequences of Chorioamnionitis: Preterm Birth and Effects on Development

Journal of Pregnancy, 2013
Preterm birth is a major cause of perinatal mortality and long-term morbidity. Chorioamnionitis is a common cause of preterm birth. Clinical chorioamnionitis, characterised by maternal fever, leukocytosis, tachycardia, uterine tenderness, and preterm ...

Association between Chorioamnionitis Severity and Procalcitonin Levels in Umbilical Venous Blood

Clinical and Experimental Obstetrics & Gynecology, 2022
Background: Procalcitonin can effectively differentiate between bacterial sepsis and a systemic inflammatory response syndrome of noninfectious origins in the adult. However, the usefulness of procalcitonin in perinatal field is not determined. Thus, the

Prone position in pregnant woman with major burns with severe ARDS on mechanical ventilation

Journal of Mechanical Ventilation, 2023
Burns are skin lesions determined by the thermal energy of heat transfer with cellular protein denaturation. Although infrequent during pregnancy, they can be fatal for both the mother and fetus.

Amniotic fluid interleukin-6 and neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin for predicting fetal inflammatory response syndrome based on histological chorioamnionitis and funisitis

Taiwanese Journal of Obstetrics & Gynecology, 2023
Objective: We aimed to analyze the predictive efficacy of amniotic fluid interleukin-6 (IL-6) and neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) for fetal inflammatory response syndrome (FIRS)-related infection.

C4d Deposition in Fetal Vessels of the Placenta in Neonatal Lupus Syndrome

Case Reports in Obstetrics and Gynecology, 2019
Neonatal lupus syndrome (NLS) is a rare, passively acquired autoimmune syndrome caused by maternal autoantibodies. We describe a case of a newborn with NLS and the accompanying placental findings.

Intra-Amniotic Infection with Ureaplasma parvum Causes Preterm Birth and Neonatal Mortality That Are Prevented by Treatment with Clarithromycin

mBio, 2020
Intra-amniotic infection is strongly associated with adverse pregnancy and neonatal outcomes. Most intra-amniotic infections are due to Ureaplasma species; however, the pathogenic potency of these genital mycoplasmas to induce preterm birth is still ...

Lipopolysaccharide uptake is augmented in lipopolysaccharide‐tolerant mouse macrophage‐like cells via increased CD14 expression

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
In normal (nontolerant) cells, CD14 is crucial for both LPS uptake and LPS signaling. In LPS‐tolerant cells, in which LPS‐induced TNF‐α and IFN‐β production is suppressed, there is a dramatic increase in surface CD14 expression. The overexpressed CD14 in LPS‐tolerant cells is responsible for the enhanced LPS uptake without inducing pro‐inflammatory ...

GelMA‐based 3D spheroids recapitulate transcriptomic and functional hallmarks of myeloid sarcoma

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
GelMA 5% hydrogels support the formation of myeloid leukemia spheroids that recapitulate MS‐specific features, including G1 arrest, apoptosis, and ECM‐driven transcriptomic reprogramming. The 3D model mimicked soft‐tissue‐like stiffness and oxygen conditions, and transcriptomic convergence with primary MS samples confirmed its utility as a preclinical ...

The Lupus Damage Index Revision Program: Results From the Item Generation and Reduction Phases

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective A data‐driven and expert/patient consensus‐based project to develop a revised Systemic Lupus International Collaborating Clinics (SLICC)/American College of Rheumatology (ACR) Damage Index (SDI) is under way supported by SLICC, ACR, and the Lupus Foundation of America. Our objective is to report the item generation and reduction phase results

Soluble ST2 in the fetal inflammatory response syndrome: in vivo evidence of activation of the anti-inflammatory limb of the immune response [PDF]

The Journal of Maternal-Fetal & Neonatal Medicine, 2013
Inflammation is a mechanism of host response to infection, which can be harmful when inappropriately modulated. Soluble ST2 (sST2) is a decoy receptor of interleukin (IL)-33, and this complex modulates the balance in the Th1/Th2 immune response.
