DOI: 10.1111/aji.13577
Abstract: Cervical insufficiency (CI) is associated with intra‐amniotic infection or inflammation. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) in amniotic fluid may protect the fetus against microbial invasion, giving their broad‐spectrum microbiocidal properties. We evaluated changes in amniotic fluid AMP… read more here.
