| dc.description.abstract | African HIV-infected pregnant women are the most vulnerable population group to malaria infection. • Paradoxically, these women are also the least protected against malaria due to fear of potential interactions between antiretroviral and antimalarial drugs. Action is urgently needed to evaluate antimalarials that can be safely administered to HIV-infected pregnant women on antiretroviral treatment and cotrimoxazole prophylaxis. | en_US |

| dc.description.resumo | As mulheres grávidas africanas infectadas pelo VIH são o grupo populacional mais vulnerável à infecção por malária. • Paradoxalmente, estas mulheres são também as menos protegidas contra a malária devido ao medo de potenciais interações entre medicamentos antirretrovirais e antimaláricos. É urgentemente necessária acção para avaliar os antimaláricos que podem ser administrados com segurança em Gestantes infectadas pelo HIV em tratamento antirretroviral e cotrimoxazol profilaxia.(TRADUÇÃO NOSSA) | en_US |
