Abstract
(Abstracted from JAMA Network Open 2024;7(11):e2444593) Spontaneous preterm birth (sPTB) occurs following spontaneous labor or preterm premature rupture of membranes. It accounts for up to 70% of all preterm births (PTBs) and can result from infection or inflammation, decidual hemorrhage, uterine over distention, and chronic or acute stress.
