Abstract excerpt

Genetic characteristics of Plasmodium falciparum may play a role in the clinical severity of malaria infection. We have studied the association between diversity at the merozoite surface protein-1 (msp-1) locus and the severity of disease in childhood malaria in Ibadan, south-west Nigeria. Two hundred and twenty-three children (median age of 34.5 months) presenting with malaria were enrolled into the study. They...
