Associations of Serum Inflammatory Biomarkers During Pregnancy With Placental Pathology and Placental Gene Expression at Delivery

American Journal of Reproductive Immunology, Volume 93, Issue 4, April 2025.
ABSTRACT Problem We sought to investigate whether maternal inflammatory cytokines during pregnancy are associated with histologic inflammatory or vascular lesions in the placenta and/or correlated with gene expression patterns in the placenta. Method of Study We leveraged data from a large randomized controlled trial (RCT) at a single site.

BJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics &Gynaecology, Volume 131, Issue 13, Page 1782-1792, December 2024.
Abstract Objective To utilise combined diffusion‐relaxation MRI techniques to interrogate antenatal changes in the placenta prior to extreme preterm birth among both women with PPROM and membranes intact, and compare this to a control group who subsequently delivered at term. Design Observational study.

Quantitative cervicovaginal fluid fetal fibronectin: A liquid biopsy for intra‐amniotic inflammation

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, Volume 103, Issue 11, Page 2252-2263, November 2024.
The cervicovaginal fluid fetal fibronectin concentration with a cut‐off of 125 ng/mL had a high sensitivity and a negative predictive value the identification of intra‐amniotic inflammation. Therefore, this test can be used to decrease an index of suspicion of intra‐amniotic inflammation and could serve as an initial test to select appropriate patients

Journal of Periodontal Research, Volume 59, Issue 5, Page 939-950, October 2024.
Maternal subgingival microbiome of preterm births has distinctive features from term births. The schematic is created with Biorender.com. Abstract Aim Periodontitis is a potential risk factor for preterm birth (PTB) in women; however, the causal relationship or the exact mechanism remain unknown. This study aimed to compare the oral microbiome features
