The impact of malaria-protective red blood cell polymorphisms on parasite biomass in children with severe Plasmodium falciparum malaria

Numerous candidate malaria protective gene polymorphisms have been proposed. Here, Uyoga et al. investigate associations between malaria-protective red blood cell polymorphisms and total parasite biomass estimated from plasma concentrations of PfHRP2, in a cohort of Kenyan children suffering from se...
