Coagulation and Fibrinolysis Indicators and Placental Malaria Infection in an Area Characterized by Unstable Malaria Transmission in Central Sudan
This study aimed to investigate coagulation, fibrinolysis indicators, and malaria during pregnancy. Methods. A cross-sectional study was conducted at Medani, Sudan. Sociodemographic characteristics were gathered from each parturient woman (163) and malaria was investigated by blood film and placental histology. Protein C, protein S, antithrombin-III, tissue factor pathway inhibitor (TFPI), and ...
متن کاملMacrophage migration inhibitory factor and placental malaria infection in an area characterized by unstable malaria transmission in central Sudan
BACKGROUND The pathogenesis of malaria during pregnancy is not fully understood. A proinflammatory cytokine, macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) is suggested as a factor involved in the pathogenesis of malaria during pregnancy. METHODS A cross-sectional study was conducted in Medani Hospital, Sudan to investigate MIF levels in placental malaria. Obstetrical and medical characteristic...
متن کاملComplement activation, placental malaria infection, and birth weight in areas characterized by unstable malaria transmission in central Sudan
BACKGROUND The pathogenesis of malaria during pregnancy is not completely understood. There are few published data on complement activation and malaria during pregnancy. This study aimed to investigate complement activation and malaria during pregnancy, and their association with hemoglobin and birth weight. METHODS A cross-sectional study was conducted at Medani, Sudan. Soluble terminal comp...

متن کاملPolymerase chain reaction and histology in diagnosis of placental malaria in an area of unstable malaria transmission in Central Sudan
BACKGROUND Prevalence of placental malaria has been widely used as a standard indicator to characterize malaria infection in epidemiologic surveys. Placental malaria poses a greater diagnostic challenge, accurate and sensitive diagnostic tool for malaria infections in pregnancy is needed. METHODS A cross sectional study was conducted at Medani Hospital, which serves catchment area which is ch...
