To date, the underlying etiology of preterm birth has not been fully clarified. Previous studies demonstrate that inflammation is one of the pathological factors that might cause preterm birth, and that there is a difference between primiparous and multiparous women in immune response to pregnancy. The objective of this prospective cohort study was to investigate the role of two inflammatory markers, ferritin and C\u2010reactive protein (CRP) and preterm birth, in first trimester women, stratified for parity. In addition, a possible association between high ferritin and CRP, and a possible association between high ferritin and CRP and preterm birth were assessed.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Material and methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>A total of 2044 healthy, low\u2010risk pregnant women from primary obstetric care in the Netherlands participated in this study. Their ferritin and CRP levels were evaluated at 12\u2009weeks\u2019 gestation. Levels above the parity specific 95th percentile were defined as high. The main outcome of this study was to assess the presence of a possible association between parity specific high ferritin and CRP, and preterm birth. The secondary outcomes were the ferritin and CRP levels of women, stratified for parity, and the possible association between high ferritin and CRP levels.<\/jats:p><jats:p>Logistic regression analysis was performed with preterm birth as a dependent variable and parity specific high ferritin and CRP as an independent variable, adjusting for age and history of preterm birth.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Ferritin levels decreased with increasing parity. Ferritin and CRP levels at 12\u2009weeks\u2019 gestation were significantly higher in women with preterm birth. In primiparous women, high ferritin levels (OR: 2.5, CI: 1.14\u20135.38) and high CRP levels (OR: 5.0, CI: 2.61\u20139.94) were independently associated with preterm birth. In multiparous women, high ferritin levels (OR: 6.0, CI: 2.28\u201316.67) were independently associated with preterm birth while high CRP levels were not.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>First trimester parity specific ferritin and CRP levels could play a part in predictive models for preterm birth, and further research for their additive role in preterm birth is needed.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/aogs.14830","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,4,23]],"date-time":"2024-04-23T04:43:24Z","timestamp":1713847404000},"page":"1437-1443","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["High first trimester ferritin levels differ according to parity and are independently related to preterm birth: A prospective cohort study"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"103","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0005-5898-2259","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Annabel","family":"Broekhuis","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology Meander Medical Center  Amersfoort The Netherlands"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Steven V.","family":"Koenen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology Elisabeth\u2010TweeSteden Ziekenhuis  Tilburg The Netherlands"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Maarten A.
