Alterations in MicroRNA and Cytokine Expressions in Placental and Amniotic Tissues of COVID‐19 Affected Pregnant Women

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Since 2019, coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) has been associated with increased risks of preterm birth and placental complications. We prospectively investigated alterations in microRNAs (miRNAs) and cytokines in placental and amniotic tissues from pregnant women with and without COVID‐19 to evaluate the infection's impact on pregnancy ...
