Background: Monitoring HIV infection estimates is critical to guide health interventions and assess their impact, especially in highly vulnerable groups to the infection such as African pregnant women. This study describes the trends of HIV infection over eleven years in women attending selected antenatal care (ANC) clinics from southern Mozambique.
Methods: We performed a secondary analysis of data registered at the ANC clinic of the Manhiça District Hospital and from the Ministry of Health's HIV National Program Registry between 2010 and 2021.

Distinguishing anti-D, anti- C, and anti-G specificities is particularly essential in antenatal cases to ensure proper patient management. The clinical management as well as Rh immune globulin (RhIG) prophylaxis depend on the accurate identification of these distinct antibodies. D- pregnant women with anti-G, but without anti-D, in their serum need RhIG prophylaxis at 28 weeks of gestation, at delivery if the infant is D+, and when clinically indicated to prevent the formation of anti-D and potential hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn (HDFN).

Malignant arrhythmias resulting in sudden death are common, affecting nearly 90% of patients with a mean age of 35 years.
