Cervical phosphorylated insulin-like growth factor binding proteın-1 for the prediction of preterm delivery in symptomatic cases with intact membranes

Aim:  This prospective, observational study was an attempt to evaluate whether a positive cervical phosphorylated insulin‐like growth factor binding proteın‐1 admission test in women with signs and symptoms of preterm labor (PTL) may be useful in the prediction of women who will deliver prematurely....
