Figure 2. Amniotic fluid concentrations of caspases-1 in women with preterm labor.

Figure 2

Among patients with spontaneous PTL, those with intra-amniotic infection and/or inflammation (median 41.4 pg/ml; range: 0.0–515) had a significantly higher median amniotic fluid caspase-1 concentration than those without intra-amniotic infection and/or inflammation who delivered preterm (median 0.0 pg/ml; range: 0.0–78.4) and than those who delivered at term (median 0.0 pg/mL, range 0.0–199.5), p<0.001 for both comparisons.
