title: Urinary tract infection and anemia in pregnancy.
abstract: The Author reports 40 cases of patients affected by asymptomatic bacteriuria at the 1st trimester of pregnancy, assessing changes in their hemoglobin values, and compared them to 20 control patients with sterile urine at the 1st trimester. No major difference is found in hemoglobin changes between the two groups, probably owing to the repeated parameter controls throughout pregnancy and the continuing treatment undergone by all the affected patients.
