Özet

SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to evaluate the predictive value of immunonutrition-based indices (Hemoglobin, Albumin, Lymphocyte, Platelet score, prognostic nutritional index, and C-reactive protein–albumin–lymphocyte index) for latency duration and neonatal outcomes in preterm prelabor rupture of membranes. METHODS: This retrospective cohort study included 145 singleton pregnancies diagnosed with PPROM between 24 and 34 weeks. Patients were categorized by latency duration (≤48 vs. >48 h), and subgroup analyses used thresholds of 72 h, 96 h, and 7 days. Maternal, laboratory, and neonatal characteristics were compared. Logistic regression adjusted for parity and gestational age evaluated associations between indices and latency. RESULTS: Hemoglobin, Albumin, Lymphocyte, Platelet, prognostic nutritional index, and C-reactive protein–albumin–lymphocyte values showed no significant differences across latency groups (all p>0.05). Only respiratory distress syndrome was more frequent in the short-latency group (p=0.005). CONCLUSION: Immunonutrition indices remained stable across latency durations, highlighting the predominance of localized inflammatory and structural mechanisms in preterm prelabor rupture of membranes pathophysiology.
