2022, PlacentaCitation Excerpt :The increment is due to migration and accumulation of host inflammatory cells at the site of infection for the clearance of parasite [41,47,72–75]. Apart from parasite clearance, these cells may also be responsible for impairment in materno-foetal exchange either by decreasing the maternal blood output or releasing cytokines [41,74]. This increase in inflammatory cells is reported to be associated with complications in pregnancy due to malaria, such as anaemia, intrauterine growth retardation and LBW [9,18,41,72,73].
