- Effectiveness of intermittent preventive treatment in pregnancy with sulfadoxine–pyrimethamine (IPTp-SP) for prevention of malaria and adverse birth outcomes can be compromised by parasites-resistance to sulfadoxine–pyrimethamine. This study prospectively evaluated the effectiveness of IPTp-SP in Southeast Tanzania. From January 2017 to May 2019, HIV-negative and malaria-negative (mRDT) pregnant women attending their first antenatal-care visit in the second or third trimester (n = 500) were enrolled to receive monthly IPTp-SP and followed the protocol till delivery. The primary outcome was the prevalence of histopathological placental malaria. Secondary outcomes were anemia, malaria parasites detected during pregnancy and at delivery, adverse birth outcomes (low-birth-weight [LBW], premature birth, fetal anemia, still birth, and spontaneous abortion). Rates of histopathological placental malaria, any parasitemia at delivery (placental, cord or maternal), and any adverse birth outcome were 9.4%, 20.9%, and 26.5%, respectively. Rates of symptomatic malaria and parasitemia during pregnancy were 2.8% and 16%, respectively. Histopathological placental malaria significantly increased the odds of any adverse birth outcomes, particularly LBW. IPTp-SP with more than or equal to three doses significantly improved birth weight and reduced the risk of LBW by 56% compared to <3 SP doses (p = 0.009). IPTp-SP with more than or equal to three doses is still effective in improving birth weight. However, the detection of histopathological placental-malaria in one-tenth and parasitemia in one-fifth of pregnant women reflects the need to optimize the prevention of malaria during pregnancy.
