CXCL5 and chorioamnionitis: The objective of this study is to explore whether metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) and Epithelial Neutrophil Activating Peptide-78 (ENA-78) assays in the amniotic fluid (AF) of patients with preterm labor (PTL) could be employed for diagnosing intra-amniotic infection/inflammation (IAI/I) and predict the outcomes of emergency cerclage in women with cervical insufficiency(CI).
