Journal ArticleDOI
The Preterm Labor Syndrome
TL;DR: The evidence is reviewed that preterm labor is a pathologic condition caused by multiple etiologies, and hence should be considered a syndrome: the Preterm Labor Syndrome.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ultrasonographic examination of the uterine cervix is better than cervical digital examination as a predictor of the likelihood of premature delivery in patients with preterm labor and intact membranes.

TL;DR: Endovaginal ultrasonographic examination of the uterine cervix is more accurate than digitalexamination of the cervix in the assessment of the risk for preterm delivery in patients with preterm labor and intact membranes.
Journal ArticleDOI
The natural interleukin-1 receptor antagonist in the fetal, maternal, and amniotic fluid compartments: The effect of gestational age, fetal gender, and intrauterine infection
Roberto Romero,Ricardo Gomez,Maurizio Galasso,Moshe Mazor,Stanley M. Berry,Ruben A. Quintero,David B. Cotton +6 more
TL;DR: Interleukin-1 receptor antagonist is physiologically present in the fetal, maternal, and amniotic fluid compartments during term and preterm parturition in women with and without microbial invasion of the amniotics cavity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Macrophage Inflammatory Protein‐1α in Term and Preterm Parturtition: Effect of Microbial Invasion of the Amniotic Cavity
Roberto Romero,Ricardo Gomez,Maurizio Galasso,Hernán Muñoz,Leonardo Acosta,Bo Hyun Yoon,David M. Svinarich,David B. Cotton +7 more
TL;DR: G gestational age, parturition, and microbial invasion of the amniotic cavity (MIAC) are associated with changes in amniotics fluid concentrations of immunoreactive macrophage inflammatory protein‐1α and these changes are correlated with the white blood cell count and the concentrations of interleukin‐8 inAmniotic fluid.
Journal ArticleDOI
The value of amniotic fluid interleukin-6, white blood cell count, and Gram stain in the diagnosis of microbial invasion of the amniotic cavity in patients at term
TL;DR: The performance of the amniotic fluid Gram stain examination, white blood cell count, and interleukin‐6 determination in the identification of microbial invasion of theAmniotic cavity in patients at term with and without PROM is compared.
