Summary
Our objective was to investigate the importance of malaria infection/disease during pregnancy
and more particularly during the first trimester; we also looked at the maternal-foetal
interactions and their influence on the subsequent child's response to malaria infections
during the first year of life. This study was carried out !in the same population recruited
for the IUGR study (NCT00642408).
