Selected Immunological Indicators and Microbiota in Patients With Premature Birth and Preeclampsia

NCT06281262 · Status: RECRUITING · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 100

Last updated 2024-03-01

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The goal is to demonstrate the relationship of the circulating pool of T-regulatory lymphocytes in the mother's peripheral blood with populations in the placentas and to compare with controls, what is the difference in the expression of individual regulatory molecules of T-regulatory lymphocytes according to new paradigms. The proportional and functional characteristics of T-regulatory lymphocytes will be correlated with the composition of the intestinal and vaginal microbiota.

Conditions

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Peripheral blood collection

The phenotypic characteristics of leukocytes will be compared between the groups to identify immunological markers of women at risk of preterm delivery. Samples from the controls will be taken to define a baseline for the measured leukocyte populations.

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Swab sample collection

Oral, vaginal and rectal swabs will be collected and stored for analysis of microbiota at the time of inclusion. At birth, oral, vaginal and rectal swabs and part of the placenta (placental tissue) will be collected for further analysis.
