Temporal Trends and Spatial Variation in Preterm Prelabour Rupture of Membranes: A Population-Based Study

Listen to this summary

The authors aimed to investigate the temporal trends and geographical distribution of preterm prelabour rupture of membranes (PPROM) in metropolitan France from 2015 to 2023. Their findings revealed an overall increasing incidence of PPROM, with notable geographical disparities and a temporary decrease in 2020, highlighting the need for targeted prevention strategies in high-risk areas. This study serves as a foundational analysis for further research into the environmental factors influencing PPROM incidence.
