FIG. 1 Flow chart of women enrolled in this study (n = 1386). Amniocenteses were performed on Toxoplasma gondii – seropositive pregnant women and in women with pathologies in prenatal ultrasound. The serologic diagnosis was made in accordance with criteria of the European Toxoplasmosis Group. PCR, polymerase chain reaction of amniotic fluid. *Including six women with immunodeficiency or inborn errors of metabolism.
