ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the levels of interleukin-37(IL-37)and CC type modified chemokine 11(CCL11)in serum of pregnant women infected with group B streptococcus in late pregnancy and their predic-tive efficacy for maternal and infant outcomes.Methods A total of 86 pregnant women with reproductive tract B streptococcus infection in late pregnancy treated in the hospital from December 2020 to December 2022 were selected as the study group,and 76 pregnant women with normal physical examination admitted during the same period were selected as the control group.The levels of IL-37 and CCL11 in serum of all pregnant women were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.According to whether the pregnant women with group B streptococcus infection in late pregnancy had adverse maternal and infant outcomes,they were divided into normal pregnancy outcome group(50 cases)and adverse pregnancy outcome group(36 cases).Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to evaluate the diagnostic value of serum IL-37 and CCL11 on maternal and infant outcomes of pregnant women with reproductive group B streptococcus infection in late pregnancy.Multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the factors affecting maternal and in-fant outcomes of pregnant women with reproductive group B streptococcus infection in late pregnancy.Results The levels of IL-37 and CCL11 in the study group were higher than those in the control group(P<0.05).The incidence rate of adverse outcomes in the study group was significantly higher than that in the control group(P<0.05).The proportion of abortion history and the proportion of vaginal microecological disorders and levels of IL-37 and CCL11 and in adverse pregnancy outcome group were higher than those in normal pregnancy outcome group(P<0.05).ROC curve results showed that the area under the curve(AUC)of IL-37 and CCL11 for predicting adverse maternal and infant outcomes of pregnant women infected with group B streptococcus in late pregnancy were 0.876(95%CI:0.824-0.920)and 0.788(95%CI:0.748-0.830),re-spectively.The AUC of the combined prediction of adverse maternal and infant outcomes of pregnant women infected with group B streptococcus were 0.927(95%CI:0.889-0.970).Multivariate Logistic regression a-nalysis results showed that serum IL-37(OR=3.604,95%CI:2.106-6.166),CCL11(OR=4.250,95%CI:2.074-8.709),abortion history(OR=2.707,95%CI:1.688-4.342)and vaginal microecological disorders(OR=3.504,95%CI:1.993-6.162)were risk factors for adverse maternal and infant outcomes in pregnant women infected with group B streptococcus in late pregnancy(P<0.05).Conclusion The levels of IL-37 and CCL11 in serum of pregnant women infected with reproductive group B streptococcus in late pregnancy are in-creased,which are related to adverse pregnancy outcomes,and are expected to be effective indicator for predic-ting adverse pregnancy outcomes of pregnant women infected with reproductive group B streptococcus in late pregnancy.
