Comparing diagnostic indices among amniotic fluid FcgammaBP, MMP-8, and IL-6 to identify intra-amniotic infection in pregnancies with PTL, amniotic fluid FcgammaBP has the highest likelihood ratio [FcgammaBP (cut-off value of 120 ng/mL) 7.8, MMP-8 (cut-off value of 10 ng/mL) 3.3, IL-6 (cut-off value of 745 pg/mL) 2.6, and IL-6 (cut-off value of 1000 pg/mL) 3.0]21. Here, MMP8 is linked to chorioamnionitis.
