In contrast, log10 cord PLAP was not associated with the following maternal variables: rupture of membranes more than 4 h prior to delivery (n = 163, t = 0.74, p = 0.46), placental malaria (n = 167, t = −0.12, p = 0.90), chorioamnionitis (n = 162, t = 0.85, p = 0.40), duration of labor (n = 177, correlation coefficient = −0.0001, p = 0.99), log10 HIV-1 RNA load (n = 170, correlation coefficient = 0.012, p = 0.88), or CD4 T cell count (n = 171, correlation coefficient = 0.12, p = 0.105). The gene discussed is CD4; the disease is chorioamnionitis.
