The genetic risk of acute seizures in African children with falciparum malaria.
PURPOSE: It is unclear why some children with falciparum malaria develop acute seizures and what determines the phenotype of seizures. We sought to determine if polymorphisms of malaria candidate genes are associated with acute seizures. METHODS: Logistic regression was used to investigate genetic a...
