This study revealed differences in the EFT and Mod-MPI measurements of the fetuses of pregnant women with pPROM. Considering that EFT is an important energy source for the myocardium, as well as an endocrine structure in which inflammatory and anti-inflammatory markers are secreted, it is recommended to be evaluated in inflammatory conditions such as pPROM.
