Comparative performance of microscopy, rapid diagnostic tests, and multiplex real-time PCR for detection of malaria parasites among pregnant women in northwest Ethiopia

20 Jan 2025

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Low malaria parasitaemia is a diagnostic challenge in pregnancy, leading to false negative microscopy and rapid diagnostic test (RDT) results. However, these submicroscopic or subpatent infections could cause adverse pregnancy outcomes. Thus, evaluating the diagnostic performance of microscopy, RDT, and multiplex qPCR in pregnancy is vital for informed decisions. METHODS: A total of 835 peripheral...
