Prevalence of acute toxoplasmosis infection among 41,112 pregnant women and the mother-to-child transmission rate in a public hospital in South Brazil

Untreated acute toxoplasmosis among pregnant women can lead to serious sequelae among newborns, including neurological impairment and blindness. In Brazil, the risk of congenital toxoplasmosis (CTox) has not been fully evaluated. Our aim was to evaluate trends in acute toxoplasmosis prevalence from 1998-2005, the incidence of CTox and the rate of mother-to-child transmission (MTCT). A cross-sectional study was undertaken to dentify patients who fit the criteria for acute toxoplasmosis during pregnancy. Exposed newborns were included in a historical cohort, with a median follow-up time of 11 months, to establish definite diagnosis of CTox. Diagnoses for acute infection in pregnancy and CTox were based on European Research Network on Congenital Toxoplasmosis criteria. In 41,112 pregnant women, the prevalence of acute toxoplasmosis was 4.8/1,000 women. The birth prevalence of CTox was 0.6/1,000 newborns [95% confidence interval (CI): 0.4-0.9]. During the follow-up study, 12 additional cases were detected, increasing the CTox rate to 0.9/1,000 newborns (95% CI: 0.6-1.3). Among the 200 newborns exposed to Toxoplasma gondii,there were 37 babies presenting diagnostic criteria of CTox, leading to an MTCT rate of 18.5% (95% CI: 13.4-24.6%). The additional cases identified during follow-up reinforce the need for serological monitoring during the first year of life, even in the absence of evidence of congenital infection at birth.

[112-POS] : Increased post-partum prevalence of hypertension and renal dysfunction after preeclampsia

OBJECTIVES: Women with a history of preeclampsia (PE) are at increased risk of long term cardiovascular and end-stage renal diseases. However, follow up of preeclamptic women is often omitted, mainly due to a weakness of knowledge of maternal caregivers and lack of comprehensive guidelines. The aim of this study was to define the prevalence of albuminuria, high blood pressure, and renal dysfunction 6 weeks after a preeclampsia. METHODS: This is a prospective case-control study comparing women presenting with preeclampsia to an unmatched control group of women with no hypertensive disorders of pregnancy. A complete medical assessment was performed at 6 weeks post-partum. Recruitment started in June 2010. RESULTS: 324 women were included in the PE group and 50 in the control one. Characteristics of both groups and results of the medical work-up at 6 weeks post-partum are presented in Table 1. Women with preeclampsia presented with a higher BMI, higher prevalence of office high blood pressure, pathological albuminuria and renal hyper-filtration than women in the control group. CONCLUSIONS: Prevalence of post-partum hypertension, and renal dysfunction is higher in women with PE than in uncomplicated pregnancies. Systematic assessment of renal risk factors 6 weeks after preeclampsia allows identification of high-risk women and early implementation of preventive and therapeutic strategies. DISCLOSURES: A. Ditisheim: None. B. Ponte: None. G. Wuerzner: None. M. Burnier: None. M. Boulvain: None. A. Pechère-Bertschi: None.
