The Role of the Vaginal Microbiome in Preterm Premature Rupture of Membranes: A Comprehensive Review of Mechanisms and Clinical Implications

open access: yesHealth Science Reports, Volume 8, Issue 12, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Preterm premature rupture of membranes (PPROM), a complication in approximately 4.5% of pregnancies, is a leading cause of preterm birth and significant perinatal morbidity. A substantial body of evidence implicates vaginal dysbiosis a departure from a healthy, Lactobacillus‐dominant microbiome in the pathogenesis of PPROM.

Predicting spontaneous preterm birth with cervical length and fetal fibronectin for symptomatic women of threatened preterm labor: A prospective study

open access: yesActa Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, Volume 104, Issue 12, Page 2292-2299, December 2025.
