Amniotic membrane collagen content and type distribution in women with preterm premature rupture of the membranes in pregnancy
Abstract
Amniotic membrane samples were taken following preterm delivery from 15 women with preterm prelabour rupture of the membranes (PPROM) and 14 with unrelated reasons, and from 25 delivering at term. Fibrillar collagens were extracted and analysed by interrupted gel electrophoresis. Collagens were decreased in PPROM relative to controls, but showed similar sub-type distribution, with one exception. In this case an increased ratio of Type I to Type III collagen was observed, with normal collagen content. In conclusion, PPROM is accompanied by generalised reduction in amnion collagen content, involving all fibrillar sub-types monitored. This may reflect general changes in protease activity or in collagen expression in affected membranes.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
