  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult

Study population: pregnant women

Who may be able to join

  • The pregnant woman is born at a gestational age of 24-40 weeks;
  • The pregnant woman has a single child;
  • Regular obstetric examination during pregnancy with complete obstetric examination data was diagnosed as premature rupture of membranes (PROM).

About this study

Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the predictive value of maternal serum pentraxin 3 (PTX3) and heparin-binding protein (HBP) for chorioamnionitis in preterm premature rupture of membranes (PPROM).

Method: This observational prospective cohort study included a total of 180 pregnant women at 24-40 gestational weeks. There were 60 cases of term premature rupture of membranes (TPROM), 60 cases of preterm premature rupture of membranes(PPROM)and 60 cases of healthy women. The concentrations of PTX3 and HBP were measured in maternal blood and amniotic fluid using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Western immunoblotting was used to analyze the expression of PTX3 and HBP in placental tissue. The localization and immunoreaction of PTX3 and HBP in placenta were determined via immunohistochemistry (IHC).

Being tested
The concentrations of PTX3 and HBP were monitored in maternal blood, placental tissue and amniotic fluid.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Preterm Premature Rupture of Membrane, run by Second Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Jan 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

PTX3 and HBP concentrations in maternal blood (time frame: 24 weeks to 40 weeks gestation). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 26 Jan 2022.
