A histological method for quantifying Plasmodium falciparum in the brain in fatal paediatric cerebral malaria [PDF]

, 2013
Background: The sequestration of Plasmodium falciparum-infected erythrocytes in brain microvasculature through cytoadherence to endothelium, is the hallmark of the definitive diagnosis of cerebral malaria and plays a critical role in malaria pathogenesis.

Cerebral malaria

Brain Research Bulletin, 2019
Malaria remains of significant public health concern under the tropics, causing millions of deaths annually. The disease is caused by protozoans of the Plasmodium genus, of which harbors several distinct species. Human infection occurs during the blood meal of an infected female mosquito belonging to the Anopheles genus.
