Intra-amniotic infection and sterile intra-amniotic inflammation are associated with elevated concentrations of cervical fluid interleukin-6 in women with spontaneous preterm labor with intact membranes

Jaroslav Stranik et al.

Summary: This study aimed to determine the concentration of IL-6 in cervical fluid in women with PTL. Results showed that women with intra-amniotic infection and sterile intra-amniotic inflammation had higher concentrations of IL-6 in cervical fluid compared to those without intra-amniotic inflammation, indicating an association between intra-amniotic inflammation and elevated IL-6 levels in cervical fluid.

Preterm labor is characterized by a high abundance of amniotic fluid prostaglandins in patients with intra-amniotic infection or sterile intra-amniotic inflammation

Hassendrini N. Peiris et al.

Summary: The study found that amniotic fluid concentrations of prostaglandins were higher in patients with intra-amniotic infection, with PGE(2) and PGF(2 alpha) concentrations being greater in cases with infection compared to sterile intra-amniotic inflammation. Mass spectrometric analysis can differentiate between intra-amniotic infection and sterile intra-amniotic inflammation based on amniotic fluid concentrations of PGE(2) and PGF(2 alpha).

Summary: Elevated FcgammaBP concentrations may predict intra-amniotic infection in patients with PPROM and PTL, but this phenomenon is only observed in cervical fluid in patients with PPROM.
