- Maternal Infection and Preterm Birth: From Molecular Basis to . . .
Bacteria are found in the fetal circulation in 30% of incidents of intra-amniotic infection, leading to a systemic inflammatory response in the fetus
- Maternal microbiome – A pathway to preterm birth
In this review, we describe how alterations in the microbial biomasses impact preterm birth and we discuss the major research questions concerning the cause and or interdependent relationships between microbiome, infection, and preterm delivery 1 Introduction
- Biological Pathways Leading to Preterm Birth - Preterm Birth . . .
It is now clear that the causes of preterm labor are multifactorial and vary according to gestational age Important common pathways leading to preterm birth include stress, systemic or maternal genital tract infections, placental ischemia or vascular lesions, and uterine overdistension
- Infections at the maternal–fetal interface: an overview of . . .
Vertical transmission, defined as infection of the fetus from the maternal host, is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in pregnancy In some cases, bacterial, viral and parasitic infections
- Infection and preterm birth - PubMed
This article addresses the prevalence, microbiology, and management of intrauterine infection in the setting of preterm labor with intact membranes It also outlines antepartum treatment of infections for the purpose of preventing preterm birth
- Maternal Infection and Preterm Birth: From Molecular Basis to . . .
Bacteria are found in the fetal circulation in 30% of incidents of intra-amniotic infection, leading to a systemic inflammatory response in the fetus
- The Bacterial Etiology of Preterm Birth - ScienceDirect
Once bacteria have invaded the uterine cavity, maternal decidua, gestational membranes, and the fetus are all capable of elaborating an inflammatory response to the microbial insult and these responses can all contribute to the onset of preterm labor
