Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase status and severity of malarial anaemia in Nigerian children.

Journal of infection in developing countries - 15 Nov 2011

Orimadegun Adebola Emmanuel, Sodeinde Olugbemiro

Abstract excerpt

INTRODUCTION: Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency (Gd-) contributes to morbidity and mortality in sub-Saharan Africa but recent data on the interaction between Gd- and malaria among children is scarce. We hypothesised that, being a haemolytic factor, Gd- makes severe malarial anaemia (SMA) more common and even more severe. METHODOLOGY: We selected 930 children aged 0.5-12 years attending a...
