Intra-amniotic infection/inflammation (IAI) is one of the most important mechanisms of disease in preterm birth. Resistin is an adipocytokine that has been linked to insulin resistance, diabetes, obesity and inflammation. The objective of this study was to determine if resistin is present in amniotic fluid (AF) and if its concentration changes with gestational age, in the presence of labour, and in IAI in patients with spontaneous preterm labour (PTL) and intact membranes, preterm prelabour rupture of membranes (PPROM) and clinical chorioamnionitis.
