“…This is high compared to the national rate according to Mali's latest Demographic and Health Survey (EDSM-VI 2018) which reported a rate of 15%[2]. The high frequencies in developing countries seem to be explained by the multiplicity of risk factors, in particular malnutrition, insufficient monitoring of pregnancy, malaria and repeated urogenital infections during pregnancy[6]. Our rate is high compared to TELLY's.…”

Introduction: Low birth weight is responsible for 9.1 million child deaths each year worldwide. It is the leading cause of perinatal and infant mortality. The objective of this work was to determine the epidemio-clinical profile as well as the future of low birth weight at the Reference Health Center of commune VI in the district of Bamako, Mali. Methods: Our study was descriptive and prospective over a year from April 1, 2018 to March 31, 2019. Data were taken from hospital records and newborn referral/evacuation forms. Data processing was performed using Epi Info software version 3.5.4 and Word. Results: The frequency of low birth weight was 34.94%. Multiparity accounted for 47.84%, sex ratio was 0.93, maternal arterial hypertension was present in 41.66%, genitourinary infection was in 58.37% and delivery was by low way in 86.12%. The majority of newborns had a gestational age between 28SA-33SA (56.52%) and a weight between 1501-1999 grams (47.36%). Mortality accounted for 18.66%. Conclusion: Low birth weight is common in our settings with modifiable risk factors. Practitioners must play on them to minimize its importance.

“…They had a gestational age of 28 SA-33 SA with an average of 32.5 SA, the average weight was 1897 g with extremes [703 g -2490 g], hypothermia in 65.07% and the age at admission was D0 (78.94%) (Table 1). [6]. The disparity in LBW prevalence rates between areas could be explained by the place of study and the study population.…”

“…In fact, the authors' studies treated all women of childbearing age between 15 and 49 years, unlike ours, which only included women aged 20 and over. However, a maternal age of less than 20 years has been proved in the etiology of LBW [31][32][33][34]. These authors showed that the risk of giving birth to a LBW child is higher among women under the age of 20 years compared to other adult women.…”

Aims: Birth weight is a powerful predictor of infant growth and survival and depends on the fetal growth environment, which is influenced by maternal nutritional status. However, the association between maternal anthropometric and nutritional factors and birth weight is not well characterized in Côte d'Ivoire. The objective of this study was to determine the maternal anthropometric and nutritional characteristics associated with birth weight. Study Design: This was a retrospective study. Place and Duration of Study: This study was done in maternity hospitals of three municipalities in Abidjan, Côte d'Ivoire, from 1st October to 30 November 2018. Methodology: It consisted in collecting birth data from 146 newborns born from a monofetal pregnancy, whose mothers aged 20 to 42 had participated in a previous survey. Also, the relationship between birth weight, maternal anthropometry and maternal nutrition factors has been studied. Univariate, bivariate and multivariate data analysis was done using SPSS version 25 software. Results: The results indicate mean birth weight of 3118.48±515.39 g and 7.6% and 5.5% respectively of low and excessive birth weight. In a multivariate linear regression, the mean birth weight of newborns of women with medium and high dietary diversity score was higher than those newborn of women with low dietary diversity score (AOR=0.386, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.072-0.699; p=0.017 and AOR=0.233, 95% CI: 0.016-0.450; p=0.036). Similarly, women with gestational weight gain greater than 7 kg and high stature (>1.55 cm) gave birth to heavier children (AOR=0.551, 95% CI: 0.346-0.756; p=0.000 and AOR=0.633, 95% CI: 0.207-1.059; p=0.004, respectively). Conclusion: Although it revealed the presence of low and excess birth weight, this study has shown that maternal anthropometry and dietary diversity score were associated with birth weight of the baby.

“…Both tools were pre-tested by the investigator in a maternity hospital in Lomé. The dependent variable was the LBW of the newborn, de ned as a birth weight of less than 2500 grams [10][11][12]. In the mother, the variables collected were the number of doses of IPT-SP received during her last pregnancy, socio-demographic characteristics (age, level of education, marital status, occupation, area of residence) and clinical characteristics (parity, number of living children, number of Antenal Care (ANC) visits, number of IPT-SP doses taken).…”

“…Maternal malaria is responsible for more than 35% of low birth weight (LBW), one of the most important risk factors for infant mortality [9]. Indeed, LBW is de ned in a newborn as a birth weight below 2,500 g and is a public health problem [10][11][12]. To prevent maternal malaria, and reduce the incidence of LBW, the WHO has recommended since 2010 that all women should receive at least three doses of intermittent preventive treatment with Sulfadoxine Pyrimethamine (IPT-SP) after the rst trimester of pregnancy until delivery [13,14].…”

Sub-Saharan Africa bears the heaviest burden of malariain the world. Pregnant women and children aged 0–5 years are the most affected. Malaria can cause foetal complications such as intrauterine growth restriction and low birth weight (LBW). Since 2012, WHO has recommended intermittent preventive treatment with sulfadoxine-pyrimethamine (IPT-SP) to prevent malaria-related complications in pregnant women. Objectives: The objective of this study was to estimate the proportion of LBW and its associated factors in Lomé (Togo) in 2021. Methods: A descriptive and analytical cross-sectional study was conducted between January and March 2021. An exhaustive recruitment of women and their newborns was carried out in the gynaecology and obstetrics department of the Sylvanus Olympio University Hospital Center. Data from prenatal consultations of the mothers and clinical information of the newborns were collected. Multivariate logistic regression was used to determine factors associated with LBW. A p-value < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: A total of 252 mother-child pairswere included in this study. The proportion of women who received at least three doses of IPT-SP was 66.7% and 37/252 newborns (14.7%) had LBW. Newborns of mothers who received less than three doses of IPT-SP had a higher risk of LBW (aOR = 9.3; 95%CI [4.2–22.3]). Conclusion: Ten years after WHO recommendations on IPT-Sp, Malaria prevention with IPT-SP is not optimal among pregnant women in Lomé. Interventions to strengthen the three-dose IPT policy are needed for the prevention of malaria and its consequences on the foetus in Lomé, Togo.
