Splenic Tropism and Spleen‐Modulated Systemic Inflammation in Acute Plasmodium vivax Malaria

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In chronic Plasmodium vivax (Pv) infection, the spleen accounts for over 98% of total‐body parasite biomass. Whether splenic tropism also occurs in acute infection and how the spleen influences pathogenesis have not been systematically explored. In Papua, Indonesia, we compared clinical and hematology data in 24 spleen‐intact and 25 previously
