EP02.40: Amniotic fluid immune/inflammatory proteins in an asymptomatic short cervix (≤ 25mm) and cervical insufficiency and their association with length of latency

Cervical insufficiency/sufficiency may be generally classified on a continuum based on the sonographically measured cervical length, and thus a short cervix has been associated with cervical insufficiency and subsequent preterm birth. We aimed to determine whether there are any differences in specific immune/inflammatory proteins in amniotic fluid(AF) between women with cervical insufficiency and a short cervix (≤ 25mm), and whether these...
