Microbial invasion of the amniotic cavity in preeclampsia as assessed by cultivation and sequence-based methods.

abstract：:The last few decades have seen an unrelenting rise in caesarean section (CS) rates. In addition to an increase in numbers of CS performed worldwide, there has also been a change in the indications for CS, a reflection of changing times. A new dilemma facing obstetricians is the increasing demand for CS in the absence ...
