Quantification of intra-amniotic inflammation in late preterm prelabour rupture of membranes.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Preterm prelabour rupture of membranes (PPROM) complicated by intra-amniotic inflammation (IAI) represents a substantial proportion of preterm birth cases. Currently, IAI is frequently defined as amniotic fluid IL-6 concentration above 2,600 pg/mL. However, the amniotic fluid IL-6 concentration was never correlated with the global response of other proinflammatory proteins to the ongoing IAI. In this cross-sectional study, protein quantification was performed using mass spectrometry (MS) analysis followed by target quantification of selected proinflammatory proteins. Levels of amniotic fluid proteins determined by MS were put into the correlation with IL-6 concentration determined by electrochemiluminescence immunoassay method (ECLIA). In total, 925 proteins were efficiently quantified and differential expression analysis revealed 378 proteins upregulated towards IL-6 concentration above 10,000 pg/mL. Four proteins (LCN2, MMP8, MPO, and S100A12) were selected to verify the achieved results and IL-6 concentration of 10,000 pg/mL was determined as the cut-off value for global IAI response.
