Résumé
In women with twin pregnancies biomarkers are not used to predict preterm birth in clinical practice. This systematic review assessed the risk of both spontaneous and iatrogenic preterm birth in twin pregnancies based on biochemical predictors. We searched the electronic databases from January 1990 to June 2019 without language restrictions. All studies on twin pregnancies where biochemical predictors and preterm birth were evaluated were included. We reported our findings as odds ratio (OR) with 95 % confidence intervals (CI) and pooled the estimates using random-effects meta-analysis for various predictor thresholds. From 12,623 citations, we included 33 studies involving 6077 pregnancies. The odds of preterm birth <28 weeks (OR 12.06, 95 % CI 4.90-29.70, I
