In contrast, very preterm infants exposed to chorioamnionitis were at higher risk for bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), due to elevated levels of IL-8, granulocyte colony-stimulating factor, and anti-inflammatory IL-10 after adjusting for duration of gestation and severity of respiratory distress during the first day after birth [60]. Here, CXCL8 is linked to Respiratory distress.
