Globally, approximately 15% of all babies are born with low birth weight (< 2.5 kg) and ≥ 90% of them are born in low- and middle-income countries. Malaria infection in pregnancy remains a public health concern as it can affect both the mother and the newborn. Notably, it increases the risk of newborns with low birth weight. The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends intermittent preventive treatment with ≥ 3 doses of sulfadoxine-pyrimethamine (SP) during pregnancy in areas with moderate to high malaria transmission in Africa. The aim of this topical review is to give an overview of the impact of malaria infection during pregnancy on low birth weight, with focus on East Africa where malaria is endemic. Eleven studies were selected according to a predefined set of criteria. Three studies showed a significant reduction in the prevalence of low birth weight with intermittent preventive treatment with SP, whereas four studies found no significant impact of such treatment on low birth weight. The number of SP doses and compliance to this treatment may in part explain these discrepancies. Pregnant women with frequent symptomatic malaria infection had significantly higher risk of placental malaria. The WHO recommendation of ≥ 3 doses of intermittent preventive treatment with SP during pregnancy seem effective in preventing low birth weight, but treatment compliance is a challenge. Malaria prophylaxis is important during pregnancy, especially in endemic areas of malaria, such as East Africa.

妊娠期疟疾对东非低出生体重的影响:专题综述

在全球范围内,大约 15% 的婴儿出生时体重偏低(< 2.5 kg),其中 ≥ 90% 出生在低收入和中等收入国家。怀孕期间的疟疾感染仍然是一个公共卫生问题,因为它会影响母亲和新生儿。值得注意的是,它增加了低出生体重新生儿的风险。世界卫生组织 (WHO) 建议在非洲中度至高度疟疾传播地区在怀孕期间使用≥ 3 剂磺胺多辛-乙胺嘧啶 (SP) 进行间歇性预防性治疗。本专题综述的目的是概述怀孕期间疟疾感染对低出生体重的影响,重点是疟疾流行的东非。根据一组预定义的标准选择了 11 项研究。三项研究表明,使用 SP 进行间歇性预防性治疗可显着降低低出生体重的患病率,而四项研究发现此类治疗对低出生体重没有显着影响。SP 剂量的数量和对这种治疗的依从性可以部分解释这些差异。经常感染有症状的疟疾的孕妇患胎盘疟疾的风险显着更高。WHO 建议在怀孕期间使用 ≥ 3 剂 SP 间歇性预防性治疗似乎可有效预防低出生体重,但治疗依从性是一个挑战。疟疾预防在怀孕期间很重要,尤其是在疟疾流行地区,例如东非。而四项研究发现这种治疗对低出生体重没有显着影响。SP 剂量的数量和对这种治疗的依从性可以部分解释这些差异。经常感染有症状的疟疾的孕妇患胎盘疟疾的风险显着更高。WHO 建议在怀孕期间使用 ≥ 3 剂 SP 间歇性预防性治疗似乎可有效预防低出生体重,但治疗依从性是一个挑战。疟疾预防在怀孕期间很重要,尤其是在疟疾流行地区,例如东非。而四项研究发现这种治疗对低出生体重没有显着影响。SP 剂量的数量和对这种治疗的依从性可以部分解释这些差异。经常感染有症状的疟疾的孕妇患胎盘疟疾的风险显着更高。WHO 建议在怀孕期间使用 ≥ 3 剂 SP 间歇性预防性治疗似乎可有效预防低出生体重,但治疗依从性是一个挑战。疟疾预防在怀孕期间很重要,尤其是在疟疾流行地区,例如东非。WHO 建议在怀孕期间使用 ≥ 3 剂 SP 间歇性预防性治疗似乎可有效预防低出生体重,但治疗依从性是一个挑战。疟疾预防在怀孕期间很重要,尤其是在疟疾流行地区,例如东非。WHO 建议在怀孕期间使用 ≥ 3 剂 SP 间歇性预防性治疗似乎可有效预防低出生体重,但治疗依从性是一个挑战。疟疾预防在怀孕期间很重要,尤其是在疟疾流行地区,例如东非。
