(immunologic method)

Sampling: Consecutive

Inclusion criteria
Mother-neonate pairs from pregnant women who had
given their consent for another study.
Neonates putatively primed in utero to Pf antigens.
(putative in utero priming was defined as the presence of
Pf specific IgG to at least 1 Pf antigen in in vitro CB
mononuclear cell culture supernatant).
Exclusion criteria.
Maternal samples not available for comparison
Sample pairs with missing baseline data

Data Management
Data entry: MS Excel 2010; Analysis: Graph Pad prism 5.0
Central tendency: means (normal), median (skewed).
Frequencies and proportions used to characterize our study
population.
P values were calculated using the Fishers exact test.
p values <0.05 were considered statistically significant.
