Scott RK, et al. – The goal of the study described in this paper was to assess whether there is increased mother–to–child transmission of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)–1 related to deliveries at 40 weeks of estimated gestational age (EGA) or greater in pregnant women with HIV–1 viral loads of 1,000 copies/mL or less. The risk of mother–to–child transmission did not differ significantly by EGA at delivery in pregnant women with well–controlled HIV–1, although they were not powered to display equivalence of proportions of mother–to–child transmission between EGA groups.
