HIV-exposed infants born to depressed women may be at risk for adverse developmental outcomes. Half of HIV-infected women in rural South Africa (SA) may suffer from pregnancy-related depression. This pilot study examined the impact of depression in HIV-infected women in rural SA on infant development. Mother-infant dyads (N = 69) were recruited in rural SA. Demographics, HIV disclosure, depression, male involvement, and alcohol use at baseline (18.35 ± 5.47 weeks gestation) were assessed. Male involvement, depression, infant HIV serostatus and development were assessed 12 months postnatally. Half of the women (age = 29 ± 5) reported depression prenatally and one-third reported depression postnatally. In multivariable logistic regression, not cohabiting with their male partner, nondisclosure of HIV status, and postnatal depression predicted cognitive delay; decreased prenatal male involvement predicted delayed gross motor development (ps < 0.05). Assessing pregnancy-related depression among HIV-infected women and infant development and increasing male involvement may reduce negative developmental outcomes among HIV-exposed or infected infants.
HIV 暴露婴儿的母亲患有抑郁症可能会导致其发育不良。南非农村地区有一半的 HIV 感染妇女可能患有与妊娠相关的抑郁症。本研究旨在探讨南非农村地区 HIV 感染妇女的抑郁状况对婴儿发育的影响。研究招募了 69 对母婴对,对其人口统计学资料、HIV 病毒暴露、抑郁、男性参与度和饮酒情况进行了基线评估(妊娠 18.35±5.47 周),并在婴儿出生后 12 个月时对其男性参与度、抑郁、婴儿 HIV 感染状况和发育情况进行了评估。一半的母亲(年龄 29±5 岁)在产前就报告有抑郁症状,三分之一的母亲在产后报告有抑郁症状。多变量逻辑回归显示,与男性伴侣分居、未告知 HIV 状况和产后抑郁会导致认知发育迟缓;产前男性参与度下降会导致粗大运动发育迟缓(p<0.05)。评估 HIV 感染妇女的妊娠相关抑郁情况和婴儿发育情况,并增加男性参与度,可能会降低 HIV 暴露或感染婴儿的不良发育结果。
