BACKGROUND: Preterm premature rupture of membranes (PPROM) is the leading identifiable cause of preterm birth, a complication that is more common in African Americans. Attempts to identify genetic loci associated with preterm birth using genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have only been successf...
