description | There is overwhelming evidence that intrauterine infection and inflammation play an important role in the pathogenesis of spontaneous preterm labor, preterm prelabor rupture of the membranes and fetal injury resulting in long-term sequelae. Early diagnosis of subclinical infection and inflammation may therefore aid clinicians institute interventions focusing on such adverse outcomes.
Biomarkers of intrauterine inflammation such as interleukin-6, although sensitive, are not specific. Thus, decision to deliver remote from term because of intrauterine infection and/or inflammation should be based on clinical signs and/or bacterial culture or Gram stain of amniotic fluid. In patients with preterm contractions and intact membranes, the risk of delivery is 1% within the week following a negative fetal fibronectin in cervicovaginal secretions. This aids to decide whether antenatal steroids should be administered to patients presenting with preterm contractions between 24 and 34 weeks' gestation. Biomarkers in cervical secretions and amniotic fluid identify those who may benefit from cerclage when the cervix is shortened ( |

Biomarkers in cervical secretions and amniotic fluid identify those who may benefit from cerclage when the cervix is shortened (<25 mm) and dilated in the second trimester.
So far, few interventions utilizing inflammatory biomarkers have shown clinical benefit. Future efforts should focus on the quest for accurate biomarkers that can be obtained noninvasively and allow early prediction of subclinical disease to initiate appropriate risk-specific intervention.</description><identifier>ISSN: 1040-872X</identifier><identifier>EISSN: 1473-656X</identifier><identifier>DOI: 10.1097/GCO.0b013e3283374ac8</identifier><identifier>PMID: 20139764</identifier><language>eng</language><publisher>England</publisher><subject>Amniotic Fluid - immunology ; Amniotic Fluid - microbiology ; Bacteriological Techniques ; Biomarkers - analysis ; Chorioamnionitis - blood ; Chorioamnionitis - diagnosis ; Chorioamnionitis - immunology ; Female ; Fetal Membranes, Premature Rupture - immunology ; Fetal Membranes, Premature Rupture - microbiology ; Humans ; Interleukin-6 - blood ; Pregnancy ; Pregnancy Complications, Infectious - blood ; Pregnancy Complications, Infectious - diagnosis ; Pregnancy Complications, Infectious - immunology</subject><ispartof>Current opinion in obstetrics & gynecology, 2010-04, Vol.22 (2), p.116-121</ispartof><lds50>peer_reviewed</lds50><woscitedreferencessubscribed>false</woscitedreferencessubscribed><citedby>FETCH-LOGICAL-c306t-8c63cf6586cc08640e80ae412cde056570d5cb129e253ff5ca2ca8365be22ff3</citedby><cites>FETCH-LOGICAL-c306t-8c63cf6586cc08640e80ae412cde056570d5cb129e253ff5ca2ca8365be22ff3</cites></display><links><openurl>$$Topenurl_article</openurl><openurlfulltext>$$Topenurlfull_article</openurlfulltext><thumbnail>$$Tsyndetics_thumb_exl</thumbnail><link.rule.ids>314,776,780,27901,27902</link.rule.ids><backlink>$$Uhttps://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20139764$$D View this record in MEDLINE/PubMed$$Hfree_for_read</backlink></links><search><creatorcontrib>Genc, Mehmet R</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Ford, Catherine E</creatorcontrib><title>The clinical use of inflammatory markers during pregnancy</title><title>Current opinion in obstetrics & gynecology</title><addtitle>Curr Opin Obstet Gynecol</addtitle><description>There is overwhelming evidence that intrauterine infection and inflammation play an important role in the pathogenesis of spontaneous preterm labor, preterm prelabor rupture of the membranes and fetal injury resulting in long-term sequelae.
