Hazard ratios of various variables related to amniocentesis to delivery interval

Characteristics Unadjusted hazard ratio
(95% CI)
Adjusted hazard ratio
(95% CI)*
Intra-amniotic inflammation and/or MIAC
Intra-amniotic inflammation (−)/ MIAC (−) (group 1) Reference Reference
Intra-amniotic inflammation (+)/ MIAC (−) (group 2) 2.78 (1.67–4.62) 4.14 (2.36–7.26)
Intra-amniotic inflammation (+)/ MIAC (+) (group 3) 2.69 (1.25–5.80) 4.48 (1.98–10.2)
Cervical dilatation 1.61 (0.97–2.69) 1.71 (1.01–2.89)
Gestational age at amniocentesis 1.09 (1.01–1.18) 1.17 (1.08–1.26)

CI, confidence interval; MIAC, microbial invasion of amniotic cavity.
