A collagen plug with shape memory to seal iatrogenic fetal membrane defects after fetoscopic surgery

Bioactive Materials, 2023
Iatrogenic preterm premature rupture of fetal membranes (iPPROM) after fetal surgery remains a strong trigger for premature birth. As fetal membrane defects do not heal spontaneously and amniotic fluid leakage and chorioamniotic membrane separation may ...

Proteomic Study of Fetal Membrane: Inflammation-Triggered Proteolysis of Extracellular Matrix May Present a Pathogenic Pathway for Spontaneous Preterm Birth

Frontiers in Physiology, 2020
IntroductionSpontaneous preterm birth (sPTB), which predominantly presents as spontaneous preterm labor (sPTL) or prelabor premature rupture of membranes (PPROM), is a syndrome that accounts for 5–10% of live births annually.

Serum relaxin levels are reduced in pregnant women with a history of recurrent miscarriage, and correlate with maternal uterine artery Doppler indices in first trimester [PDF]

, 2009
Objectives: Defective implantation is a mechanism for recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL). We sought to determine whether the serum expression of human relaxin-2 (RLX) is impaired in women with a history of RPL.
