Abstract:
Objective To study the relationships between serum intedeukin-18(IL-18)and resistin for predicting intraamniotic infection.Method Serum levels of IL-18 and resistin were measured in 43 pregnant women with intraamniotic infection (infection group)and 40 normal pregnant women(control group).Results The level of IL-18 in infection group[(38.7±10.4)μg/L]was higher than that in control group [(23.5±5.6)μg/L],there was significant difference between two groups (P＜0.01).The level of resistin in infection group[(24.84±5.32)μg/L]was higher than that in control group[(17.3±5.15) μg/L],there was significant difference between two groups(P＜0.01).The levels of resistin and IL-18 were correlated in pregnant women with intraamniotic infection(r=0.61,P＜0.01).Conclusion Detecting the levels of IL-18 and resistin in pregnant women can identify intramnniotic infection.
