This review covers malaria epidemiology, diagnosis, and clinical presentation. It specifically examines malaria

Area of Science:

  • Malariology
  • Infectious Diseases
  • Maternal Health

Background:

  • Malaria remains a significant global health challenge, particularly in tropical and subtropical regions.
  • Pregnancy is a state of altered immunity, increasing susceptibility to malaria infection and adverse outcomes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To provide a comprehensive overview of malaria, encompassing its epidemiology, clinical course, and diagnostic methods.
  • To elucidate the specific impacts of malaria infection during pregnancy on maternal and neonatal health.
  • To present current therapeutic and prophylactic strategies for malaria in pregnant individuals.

Main Methods:

  • Systematic review of existing literature on malaria epidemiology, clinical features, diagnosis, and management.
  • Analysis of studies focusing on the intersection of malaria infection and pregnancy outcomes.

Main Results:

  • Malaria diagnosis relies on microscopic examination, rapid diagnostic tests, and molecular assays.
  • Pregnancy-associated malaria can lead to severe maternal anemia, stillbirth, preterm labor, and low birth weight.
  • Congenital malaria transmission from mother to neonate is a recognized complication.

Conclusions:

  • Effective malaria diagnosis and management are crucial for all populations, especially pregnant women.
  • Interventions to prevent and treat malaria during pregnancy are essential to improve maternal and neonatal outcomes.
  • Continued research into malaria control strategies tailored for pregnant women is warranted.
