The burden of this condition has been understudied in Came</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">roon. We aimed to determine the uropathogens of urinary tract infection in pregnancy, and the maternal-fetal outcomes of UTI at the Douala Re</span><span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">ferral Hospital. </span><b><span style="font-family:Verdana;">Methods:</span></b><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> We conducted an analytic matched case-control study </span></span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">of 206 pregnant wom</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">en with evid</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">ence of uri</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">nary tract infectio</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">n (103 cases)</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> an</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">d </span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">those without (103 controls) who underwent antenatal care and gave birth at </span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">the DRH from January 2019 to April 2019.
