- The study investigates how histologic chorioamnionitis (HCA) and the polarization of decidual macrophages (DM) impact outcomes in neonates born before 32 weeks of gestation.
- It involved analyzing 84 neonates and their placentas, categorizing them into HCA positive (HCA+) and HCA negative (HCA-) groups to identify risk factors and outcomes related to neonatal health.
- Findings suggest that HCA is linked to higher rates of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) and increased need for respiratory support in neonates, with different types of DM influencing these risks differently; M2 macrophages are associated with reduced respiratory support needs while M1 macrophages increase the risk of nec
