Transabdominal amniocentesis was performed as part of standard clinical management to evaluate the intra‐amniotic environment. Women were categorized into two subgroups based on the presence of microorganisms and/or their nucleic acids in amniotic fluid (determined by culturing and molecular biology method) and intra‐amniotic inflammation (by amniotic fluid interleukin‐6 concentration evaluation): (1) those with the presence of microorganisms and/or inflammation (at least one present) and (2) those with negative amniotic fluid for infection/inflammation (absence of both). Concentrations of sFlt‐1 and PlGF were assessed using the Elecsys® sFlt‐1 and Elecsys® PlGF immunoassays and converted into multiples of medians.ResultsWomen with the presence of microorganisms and/or inflammation in amniotic fluid had lower serum concentrations of sFlt‐1 and sFlt‐1/PlGF ratios and higher concentrations of PlGF compared with those with negative amniotic fluid. (sFlt‐1: presence: median 1.0 multiples of the median (MoM), vs negative: median: 1.5 MoM, P = 0.003; PlGF: presence: median 0.7 MoM, vs negative: median 0.4 MoM, P = 0.02; sFlt‐1/PlGF: presence: median 8.9 vs negative 25.0, P = 0.001). Higher serum concentrations of sFlt‐1 and sFlt‐1/PlGF ratios as well as lower concentrations of PlGF were found in the subsets of women with maternal vascular malperfusion than in those without maternal vascular malperfusion.ConclusionsAmong women experiencing late PPROM, angiogenic imbalance in maternal serum is primarily observed in those without both microbial invasion of the amniotic cavity and intra‐amniotic inflammation. Additionally, there is an association between angiogenic imbalance and the presence of maternal vascular malperfusion. 10.1111/aogs.14833 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/
