Background: Impaired glucose metabolism during pregnancy can result in a significant adverse pregnancy-outcomes. Previous studies have reported the contribution of ART to the impaired glucose tolerance and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) in HIV-infected pregnant women.
Methods: PRISMA guideline was followed for this systematic review and meta-analysis. The STATA version 11 was employed to compute the pooled prevalence of GDM using the random effect model and 95% confidence interval. Subgroup analysis was conducted by geographical regions. Visual inspection of the funnel plot and Egger's regression test statistic were used to show the publication bias.
Results: A total of 13,517 articles were identified, of which 21 publications met the inclusion criteria. The pooled prevalence of GDM among HIV-infected pregnant women was 4.42% (95% CI: 3.48; 5.35). According to the subgroup analysis, the pooled prevalence of GDM among HIV-infected pregnant women was 7.1% (95%CI: 3.38; 10.76) in Asia, 5.83% (95% CI: 2.61; 9.04) in Europe, 3.58% (95% CI: 2.67; 4.50) in America and 3.19% (95% CI: -2.89; 9.27) in Africa.
Conclusion: The pooled prevalence of GDM among HIV-infected pregnant women is expectedly high. Therefore, early screening of HIV-infected pregnant women for GDM is vital to reduce its complications related to pregnancy.

Background: Nutritional risk assessment is an essential component of primary health care screening, especially for pregnant women. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between maternal body mass index (BMI) and maternal anthropometric measurements in black South African pregnant women, both with and without human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).
Materials And Methods: A cross-sectional observational study design was used.

Background: Ethiopia aims to eliminate mother-to-child transmission (MTCT) of HIV by 2030. In 2020, Dolutegravir-based antiretroviral treatment (ART) regimen optimization was done for the Prevention of Mother-to-Child Transmission (PMTCT). However, data tracking progress, particularly post-rollout of the Dolutegravir (DTG)-based regimen, and the real-world effectiveness of the new regimen are unavailable.

Aflatoxin B (AFB) and fumonisin B (FB) are poisons that contaminate poorly stored staple foods in resource-limited settings. Antenatal AFB and FB exposure may cause anaemia. We aimed to determine the associations of urinary aflatoxin M (AFM) and FB, biomarkers of AFB and FB exposure, respectively, with erythrocyte parameters and anaemia.

Introduction: Depressive disorder is a common mental health issue among perinatal mothers living with HIV, potentially leading to significant despair and anxiety. This condition can hinder maternal-infant bonding and undermine efforts to prevent mother-to-child transmission of HIV. Despite its importance, little is known about the factors associated with depression in this population.

Background: Despite routine iron supplementation for pregnant women in South Africa, anaemia and iron deficiency (ID) in pregnancy remain a public health concern.
Objective: To determine the associations between iron status and birth outcomes of pregnant women attending antenatal clinic at a regional hospital in Bloemfontein.
Methods: In this cross-sectional study of 427 pregnant women, blood was taken to analyze biomarkers of anaemia (haemoglobin), iron status (ferritin and soluble transferrin receptor) and inflammation (C-reactive protein and α-1-acid glycoprotein).
