Despite advancements in medical technology, the incidence of PTB remains high, and its prediction continues to be complex.

However, recent technological advancements-such as machine learning algorithms, biomarker profiling, and genetic analyses-offer new possibilities for improving prediction accuracy. This review critically examines current and emerging approaches for PTB prediction, highlighting their potential to transform early risk detection.
