Intra-amniotic infection and/or inflammation is associated with fetal cardiac concentric hypertrophy and diastolic dysfunction in preterm labor and preterm prelabor rupture of membranes. [PDF]

Background: Preterm delivery is associated with cardiovascular remodeling and dysfunction in children and adults. However, it is unknown whether these effects are caused by the neonatal consequences of preterm birth or if these are already present in ...

Epithelial cell-derived neutrophil-activating peptide-78 is present in fetal membranes and amniotic fluid at increased concentrations with intra-amniotic infection and preterm delivery

, 2004
Intra-amniotic secretion and abundance of epithelial cell-derived neutrophil-activating peptide (ENA)-78, a potent chemoattractant and activator of neutrophils, was studied in the context of term and preterm parturition.

Intra-amniotic infection with genital mycoplasmas is characterized by an intense inflammatory response in the amniotic cavity and in the maternal compartment

, 2009
OBJECTIVE: Genital mycoplasmas are the most frequent organisms responsible for intra-amniotic infection. Yet, they are considered to be less virulent than other bacteria.
