Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: Preterm birth remains one of the most challenging areas in obstetrics. The pathogenesis of preterm labor is multifactorial and research on preterm birth has focused principally on infection and inflammatory markers. Recently the focus has turned to potential genetic factors influencing preterm birth. Uteroplacental insufficiency and thrombotic vasculopathy are considered part of the pathogenesis of...
