At the 1999 annual meeting of the Society for the Study of Reproduction there were three speakers in the minisymposium entitled "I've got to get out of here: fetal-maternal interactions involved in parturition". The primary focus was on research progress in understanding the mechanisms involved in human parturition. Although the title of the symposium emphasized the need to "get out", there was considerable emphasis on understanding the problem of "getting out too early" or preterm birth. While preterm birth is unusual in most species, it is of major clinical importance in the human. The data presented by one of the speakers is reviewed here with a focus on preterm labor and preterm premature rupture of the fetal membranes as mechanisms involved in the diverse pathology of preterm birth.
在1999年生殖研究学会年会上,小型专题讨论会“我得离开这儿:分娩过程中的胎儿-母体相互作用”有三位发言者。主要焦点是了解人类分娩机制的研究进展。尽管专题讨论会的标题强调了“离开”的必要性,但也相当重视理解“过早离开”即早产的问题。虽然早产在大多数物种中并不常见,但在人类中具有重要的临床意义。这里回顾了其中一位发言者所展示的数据,重点是早产和胎膜早破作为早产多种病理机制的相关内容。
