Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Sulfadoxine-pyrimethamine (SP) is used as intermittent preventive therapy in pregnancy (IPTp) for malaria in sub-Saharan Africa. The resistance marker dhps A581G has been associated with reduced IPTp-SP efficacy and enhanced morbidity in SP recipients. METHODS: We measured SP-resistance allele frequencies in Malawian women participating in a trial comparing IPTp with SP against intermittent screening...
