Placental antibody transfer: influence of maternal HIV infection and placental malaria

Table 4

Multiple regression estimates of the effects of placental malaria, maternal HIV infection and the level of total maternal serum IgG on placental IgG antibody transfer

Serum IgG antibody specificity Proportional reduction due to placental malaria Proportional reduction due to maternal HIV infection Proportional reduction due to raised maternal IgG
S pneumoniae 0.82 (0.70, 0.97)4-150 0.79 (0.65, 0.95)4-150 0.86 (0.77, 0.96)4-150
Measles 0.81 (0.68, 0.97)4-150 0.98 (0.79, 1.22) 0.87 (0.79, 0.97)
Tetanus toxoid 0.94 (0.79, 1.13) 0.90 (0.77, 1.06) 0.99 (0.90, 1.08)
