Note: N/A denotes not applicable. By univariate analysis of the factor associated with antibiotics prophylaxis, factors with p <0.20 were included in the logistic regression model. The adjusted odds ratios (aOR) were adjusted for cervix dilatation, pre‐/post‐CS hsCRP/ptocalcitonin, cervix secretion culture pre‐CS and uterine cavity culture in‐CS.

Abbreviations: aOR, adjusted odds ratio; CS, cesarean section; hsCRP, hypersensitive C‐reactive protein; NEU, neutrophils; ROM, rupture of membrane; WBC, white blood cell.
