摘要

Malaria still remains a challenging infection affecting the lives of several HIV infected pregnant women in sub-Saharan Africa. This study was undertaken to determine malarial infection in HIV infected pregnant women in relation to sociodemographic and obstetrical factors. The study also assessed relationship between malarial infection and haemoglobin level,CD4+counts, and ART regimen, as well as predisposing risk factors that influenced occurrence of malarial infection in the women. Thick and thin blood smears were prepared and stained with Giemsa. Haemoglobin level was determined using a hematology analyzer, while the flow cytometry was used to measureCD4+counts. Sociodemographic and obstetrical parameters were obtained through the administration of questionnaires. Of the 159 HIV infected pregnant women examined, 33.3% (59/159) had malarial infection. Malarial infection was significantly higher in pregnant women who were divorced, 40.24% (33/82)(χ2=5.72; P=0.05), were at their first trimester (4–12 weeks), 54.8% (17/31)(χ2=14.85; P=0.01), hadCD4+ = [201–500 cells/μL], 42.42% (42/99)(χ2=10.13; P=0.00), and those that had severe anaemia (<8 dg/L), 100.00%(χ2= 45.75; P=0.00). However, risk factors that influenced the occurrence of malarial infection in the pregnant women were occupation (farming)(AOR=0.226; P=0.03), marital status (divorced)(AOR=2.80; P=0.02), gestation (first trimester)(AOR=0.33; P=0.00), haemoglobin level (Hb < 8 dg/L)(AOR=0.02; P=0.00), andCD4+counts (lowCD4+)(OR=0.40; P=0.05). The study reported endemicity of malaria in HIV infected pregnant women living in rural areas of Benue State, Nigeria. Malarial infection was higher in women that were divorced, and at their first trimester, had lowCD4+count, and had severe anaemia. Farming, divorce, gestation, severe anaemia, and lowCD4+counts were predisposing risk factors that influenced malaria occurrence in the HIV infected pregnant women. It is advocated that HIV infected pregnant women should be properly and thoroughly educated on malaria preventive measures in rural areas so as to avoid unpleasant effect of malaria during their pregnancies.
