Midtrimester amniotic fluid matrix metalloproteinase-8 (MM-8) levels above the 90th percentile are a maker for subsequent preterm premature rupture of membranes
Article Abstract:
An attempt is made to determine whether midtrimester amniotic fluid levels of matrix metalloproteinase-8 were associated with subsequent preterm premature rupture of membranes. The overall distribution of midtrimester amniotic fluid matrix metalloproteinase-8 levels did not differ between women who had preterm premature rupture of membranes and those delivered at term.
