Congenital toxoplasmosis: Fewer clinical signs at 3 years of age over the last 15 years but stable risk of materno-fetal transmission
Risk and severity of congenital toxoplasmosis were estimated using data from 2,455 consecutive mother/child pairs. Clinical signs at 3 years were halved in the 177 children born since 2009 compared to 1996-2008 (OR=0.49; 95% Confidence interval 0.28-0.85). Maternofetal transmission rates remained stable from 1992 to 2021.
