This project investigated the relationship between HIV status and maternal B12 status, HIV status and cord blood B12, and the ratio of cord:maternal B12 levels. We measured B12, CRP, and Hb status in mothers at enrollment and in cord blood. We found cord blood from women living with HIV had significantly higher B12 than those who are not. We also found an increased cord:maternal B12 ratio in women living with HIV.
