Does acute funisitis predict worse neonatal outcomes among term newborns? [PDF]
American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 2022 Acute funisitis-the histologic diagnosis of inflammation within the umbilical cord-represents a fetal inflammatory response to infection. Although acute funisitis has been associated with an increased risk of adverse outcomes among preterm neonates, there are limited and conflicting data with term deliveries.This study aimed to evaluate the association

Diagnostic tests for the prediction of histological chorioamnionitis and funisitis in pregnant women with preterm premature rupture of membranes: A systematic review. [PDF]
Aust N Z J Obstet GynaecolBackground Infection of the amniotic cavity is an important driver and/or consequence of preterm prelabour rupture of membranes (PPROM). Prediction of infection is challenging, limiting guidance for interventions during the antenatal period. Infection typically triggers a host inflammatory response, and non‐invasive indirect markers of the maternal or ...

Fetal and early neonatal interleukin-6 response [PDF]
, 2015 In 1998, a systemic fetal cytokine response, defined as a plasma interleukin-6 (IL-6) value above 11 pg/mL, was reported to be a major independent risk factor for the subsequent development of neonatal morbid events even after adjustments for gestational

Chorioamnionitis and funisitis due to Corynebacterium kutscheri. [PDF]
Archives of Disease in Childhood, 1979 When isolated from the female genital tract, diphtheroids are usually regarded as commensal organisms. Corynebacterium kutscheri however is a pathogen in laboratory rodents. We report a case in which C. kutscheri was isolated as a pure culture from the umbilical cord and from other surface sites in an infant.
