RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Women who experience antenatal depression may be at increased risk of adverse birth outcomes. Few studies have examined this association among women living with HIV (WHIV). METHODS: We conducted a prospective cohort study of 2298 pregnant WHIV on antiretroviral therapy (ART) in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, who were participants in a randomized trial of vitamin D3 supplementation. Depressive symptoms were assessed at 12-27 weeks gestation using the Hopkins Symptoms Checklist (HSCL-25). Generalized estimating equations to account for twins were used to assess the relative risks of adverse birth outcomes. RESULTS: Approximately 67 % of the women in our study population reported symptoms consistent with depression. We observed a 4.0 % prevalence of stillbirth and a 25.1 % prevalence of preterm birth. We found that low social support, higher education, and more recent initiation of ART were associated with a greater risk of antenatal depression. There was no association of antenatal depression with risk of fetal loss, stillbirth, low birth weight, birth weight, preterm birth, gestational age at delivery, or small-for-gestational age. LIMITATIONS: Depression was self-reported and only collected at one timepoint in pregnancy. Our findings may not be generalizable to all WHIV. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings illustrate the high risk of both depression and adverse birth outcomes among WHIV and underscore the need for interventions to improve their mental health and the health of their infants; however, the relationship between depression and birth outcomes remains unclear. Further research on this topic is merited, particularly examining the chronicity and timing of depression in pregnancy.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Observational studies suggest that vitamin D deficiency among people living with HIV is associated with a greater risk of disease progression and death. Low levels of vitamin D in pregnancy are also associated with poor fetal and infant growth. Therefore, vitamin D supplementation may improve clinical outcomes for pregnant women living with HIV and improve fetal and postnatal growth for their infants. METHODS AND FINDINGS: We conducted a randomized, triple-blind, placebo-controlled trial of vitamin D3 supplementation among pregnant and lactating women living with HIV in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania (ClinicalTrials.gov NCT02305927). Participants were randomized with 1:1 allocation stratified by study clinic to receive either daily 3,000 IU vitamin D3 supplements or matching placebo supplements from the second trimester of pregnancy (12-27 weeks) until 1 year postpartum. The primary outcomes were (i) maternal HIV progression or death, (ii) small-for-gestational-age (SGA) live births (<10th percentile), and (iii) infant stunting at 1 year of age (length-for-age z-score < -2). We also examined the effect of vitamin D3 supplementation on secondary maternal and infant health outcomes, maternal and infant serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25[OH]D) concentrations, and maternal hypercalcemia. An intent-to-treat analysis was used as the primary analytic approach. We enrolled 2,300 pregnant women between June 15, 2015, and April 17, 2018, and follow-up of mothers and infants was completed on October 20, 2019. There were 1,148 pregnant women randomly assigned to the vitamin D3 group, and 1,152 to the placebo group. The proportion of mothers lost to follow-up at 1 year postpartum was 6.6% in the vitamin D3 group (83 of 1,148) and 6.6% in the placebo group (76 of 1,152). The proportion of children lost to follow-up at 1 year of age was 5.5% in the vitamin D3 group (59 of 1,074 live births) and 5.2% in the placebo group (57 of 1,093 live births). There was no difference in the risk of maternal HIV progression or death, with 166 events during 1,461 person-years of follow-up in the vitamin D3 group and 141 events during 1,469 person-years of follow-up in the placebo group (hazard ratio 1.21, 95% CI 0.97 to 1.52, p = 0.09). There was no difference in the risk of SGA birth between the vitamin D3 (229 SGA births among 1,070 live births) and placebo groups (236 SGA births among 1,091 live births) (relative risk 1.03, 95% CI 0.87 to 1.22, p = 0.70). There was also no difference in the risk of infant stunting at 1 year of age between the vitamin D3 (407 events among 867 infants) and placebo groups (413 events among 873 infants) (relative risk 1.00, 95% CI 0.92 to 1.10, p = 0.95). In terms of adverse events, no cases of maternal hypercalcemia were identified. One hypersensitivity reaction to the trial supplements occurred for a pregnant woman in the placebo group. A limitation of our study is that our findings may not be generalizable to HIV-negative pregnant women or contexts where severe vitamin D deficiency is prevalent. CONCLUSIONS: The trial findings do not support routine vitamin D supplementation for pregnant and lactating women living with HIV in Tanzania.
