Educational prenatal classes compared with usual prenatal classes for prenatal education for congenital toxoplasmosis
Patient or population: women of reproductive age, irrespective of their pregnant status
 Settings: Ontario, Canada
 Intervention: educational prenatal classes
 Comparison: usual prenatal classes
Outcomes Comments
Rate of congenital toxoplasmosis, defined by persistence of specific IgG antibodies beyond 11 months of age These outcomes were either not reported or were reported in unusable formate for 'Summary of findings' tables.
Rate of toxoplasmosis seroconversion in pregnant women
Pregnant women knowledge of risk factors for acquiring toxoplasmosis infection as objectively measured through specific questionnaire
Pregnant women's awareness of the importance of avoiding toxoplasmosis during pregnancy as objectively measured through specific questionnaire
Pregnant women behavior with respect to the avoidance of risk factors for toxoplasmosis infection during pregnancy as objectively measured through specific questionnaire
*The basis for the assumed risk (e.g. the median control group risk across studies) is provided in footnotes. The corresponding risk (and its 95% confidence interval) is based on the assumed risk in the comparison group and the relative effect of the intervention (and its 95% CI).
 CI: Confidence interval;
GRADE Working Group grades of evidence
 High quality: Further research is very unlikely to change our confidence in the estimate of effect.
 Moderate quality: Further research is likely to have an important impact on our confidence in the estimate of effect and may change the estimate.
 Low quality: Further research is very likely to have an important impact on our confidence in the estimate of effect and is likely to change the estimate.
 Very low quality: We are very uncertain about the estimate.
