Journal ArticleDOI
The transcriptome of the uterine cervix before and after spontaneous term parturition
Sonia S. Hassan,Roberto Romero,Ramsi Haddad,Israel Hendler,Nahla Khalek,Gerard Tromp,Michael P. Diamond,Yoram Sorokin,John M. Malone +8 more
TL;DR: Cervical dilatation in term labor is associated with a stereotypic gene expression pattern determined by microarray, which is characterized by overexpression of genes involved in neutrophil chemotaxis, apoptosis, extracellular matrix regulation, and steroid metabolism.
Journal ArticleDOI

Roberto Romero,Baha M. Sibai,Steve N. Caritis,Richard J. Paul,Richard Depp,Mortimer G. Rosen,Mark A. Klebanoff,Virginia Sabo,Joni Evans,Elizabeth Thom,Robert C. Cefalo,Donald McNellis +11 more
TL;DR: The results of this study do not support the routine use of antibiotic administration to women in preterm labor with intact membranes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis and correction of crosstalk effects in pathway analysis
Michele Donato,Zhonghui Xu,Alin Tomoiaga,James G. Granneman,Robert G. MacKenzie,Riyue Bao,Nandor Gabor Than,Peter H. Westfall,Roberto Romero,Sorin Draghici +9 more
TL;DR: A technique able to detect, quantify, and correct crosstalk effects, as well as identify independent functional modules is described, expected to allow a better understanding of individual experiment results, aswell as a more refined definition of the existing signaling pathways for specific phenotypes.
Journal ArticleDOI
C-reactive protein in umbilical cord blood: a simple and widely available clinical method to assess the risk of amniotic fluid infection and funisitis.
TL;DR: Umbilical cord plasma CRP concentrations were elevated in patients with amniotic fluid infection, congenital neonatal sepsis and funisitis, which was similar to that of interleukin-6.
Journal ArticleDOI
