Plasma and cerebrospinal proteomes from children with cerebral malaria differ from those of children with other encephalopathies.
Clinical signs and symptoms of cerebral malaria in children are nonspecific and are seen in other common encephalopathies in malaria-endemic areas. This makes accurate diagnosis difficult in resource-poor settings. Novel malaria-specific diagnostic and prognostic methods are needed. We have used 2 p...
