dc.description.abstractIntroduction: The aim of this study is to investigate the association between altered maternal serum amino acids (AAs) levels and premature rupture of membranes (pPROM) in pregnant women.Methods: We conducted a case-control study involving 60 pregnant women diagnosed with pPROM and 60 healthy pregnant women as controls. Amino acid levels were quantified using high-performance liquid chromatography. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was performed to determine the predictive capability of specific AAs for pPROM.Results: Our findings revealed that lysine, glycine, and glutamic acid levels were significantly elevated in the pPROM group compared with the control group. Lysine, with a threshold value exceeding 137.90 mu mol/L, exhibited the highest predictive accuracy, with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.796 (p < 0.001), sensitivity of 66.7 %, and specificity of 80.0 %. Glycine, with a cut-off value of >242.48 mu mol/L, had an AUC of 0.789 (p < 0.001), sensitivity of 83.3 %, and specificity of 65.0 %. Glutamic acid, at a threshold of 111.40 mu mol/L, demonstrated an AUC of 0.787 (p < 0.001), sensitivity of 88.3 %, and specificity of 65.0 %. These AAs could effectively predict the occurrence of pPROM.Conclusion: Elevated blood levels of lysine, glycine, and glutamic acid were found to be associated with pPROM. These AAs serve as potential predictive biomarkers for pPROM, with lysine showing the highest AUC and sensitivity. Identifying such biomarkers may contribute to the development of non-invasive diagnostic tools for pPROM risk assessment, enabling timely interventions and improved maternal and fetal outcomes.
