TL;DR: In this article, the authors reviewed evidence of the clinical implications and burden of malaria in pregnancy and found that successful prevention of these infections reduces the risk of severe maternal anaemia by 38%, low birthweight by 43%, and perinatal mortality by 27% among paucigravidae.
Journal Article

TL;DR: The recovery seen in late pregnancy suggests that the women mount a satisfactory immune response to malaria infection, reacquiring their prepregnancy immune status at about the time of delivery.

TL;DR: It is shown that anti-adhesion antibodies, which limit the accumulation of parasites in the placenta, appear in pregnant women from Africa and Asia who have been pregnant on previous occasions, but not in those who are pregnant for the first time (primigravidas), and that an anti- adhesion vaccine for maternal malaria may be globally effective.
