[Malaria infection during childbirth and in newborns in Bécédi (Ivory Coast)].
Authors studied the parasitological and serological status of 108 new-born children from 102 deliveries during the 2nd term of 1987 at the Bécédi Maternity Hospital in Ivory Coast. The parasitism frequency of different studied bloods (mother, cord, delivery) is varying from 8 to 14%, antibodies have been found in 81 to 83% cases. The parity has an effect on the placental lesions frequency but not on the parasitism frequency. Children born with a pathogenic placenta have a lower birth weight. The retrospective study of 11,070 deliveries from last years shows that birth weight are lower while the two first pregnancies.
