Abstract Foetal hypoxia–ischaemia is a key trigger of meconium aspiration syndrome (MAS). However, many neonates develop MAS without evidence of hypoxia–ischaemia, suggesting the presence of covert but important risk variables. We evaluated the association of MAS with clinical variables, placental histopathologic findings, and inflammatory biomarkers at birth. Of 1336 symptomatic and asymptomatic term singleton neonates with meconium-stained amniotic fluid, 88 neonates (6.6%) developed MAS. Univariate analysis showed that MAS development was associated with low 1- and 5-min Apgar scores, low cord blood pH, funisitis, higher α1-acid glycoprotein levels, and higher haptoglobin levels (all p < 0.001 except for p = 0.001 for haptoglobin).
