ObjectiveCervical length measurement has been uggested as a useful tool for predicting intra-amniotic infection/inflammation in preterm labor, but little information is available in the setting of preterm premature rupture of membranes (pPROM).

BACKGROUND: There is an increased odds of having a recurrence of clinical chorioamnionitis in patients with a diagnosis of clinical chorioamnionitis compared with those without clinical chorioamnionitis in a previous pregnancy. However, it is unclear how

The amniotic fluid nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (NAMPT) levels have not been compared among women with preterm prelabor rupture of membranes (PPROM) comorbid with intra-amniotic infection, sterile intra-amniotic inflammation (IAI), colonization,

ObjectiveTo determine whether vitamin D-binding protein (VDBP) in cervicovaginal fluid (CVF) is independently predictive of intra-amniotic infection and imminent spontaneous preterm delivery (SPTD, delivery within 48 hours) in women with preterm labor ...

Abstract Background Approximately one in four first‐time mothers reach the second stage of labor but cannot have a spontaneous vaginal birth, necessitating an intervention such as forceps to facilitate birth. Objective This study synthesizes evidence comparing severe maternal morbidity (SMM) and neonatal morbidity or mortality (SNMM) following forceps ...

Intra-uterine fetal demise caused by amniotic band syndrome after standard amniocentesis [PDF]
The amniotic band syndrome represents a prime example of exogenous disruption of an otherwise normal feta I development. It may be a sequel of invasive diagnostic procedures such as amniocentesis or fetal blood sampling. A 38-year-old gravida II, para II

Abstract Objective Preterm labor is a multifactorial syndrome with diverse etiologies such as infection, inflammation, uteroplacental dysfunction, stress, and immune dysregulation. Identifying women at high risk remains a challenge, and multivariate prediction models have been developed to enhance risk stratification.

Prelabor rupture of the membranes (PROM) near the limit of viability is associated with significant risks for both mother and fetus. Preterm labor, intra-amniotic infection, and placental abruption are the immediate risks to the pregnancy; however, the ...
