Abstract:

Human parvovirus B19 (B19) is widespread infection in humans, yet the impact on adverse pregnancy outcomes is controversial.to evaluate the impact of B19 infection during pregnancy on adverse pregnancy outcome, and investigated the incidence of fetal loss and fetal hydrops after maternal B19 infection during pregnancy.

STUDY DESIGN

A systematic literature search was performed using Embase, Medline, PubMed, Web of science, and the Cochrane Library database for relevant publications up to 10^th August 2018. Cohort studies and case-control studies were included in analyses.

In total, 36 eligible studies were included. Of these, 18 studies reported the risk of maternal B19 infection during pregnancy on fetal loss and 20 studies reported the incidence of fetal loss or fetal hydrops after maternal B19 infection. Collectively, the results indicated that maternal B19 infection increased the risk of fetal loss, spontaneous abortion, and stillbirth with ORs of 2.68 (95% CI: 2.02-3.55), 2.42 (95% CI: 1.76-3.33), and 3.53 (95% CI: 1.91-6.54), respectively, when compared with uninfected pregnant women. In addition, the incidence of fetal loss and fetal hydrops in B19 infected pregnant women was 7.6% (95% CI: 5.5-9.5) and 9.3% (95% CI: 5.6-13.0), respectively.maternal parvovirus B19 infection during pregnancy increased the risk of fetal loss, spontaneous abortion, and stillbirth. A high incidence of fetal loss and fetal hydrops was observed in pregnant women with parvovirus B19 infection.
