Ultrastructure of the Lung in Falciparum Malaria
The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1985We describe a case of fatal falciparum malaria, with severe pulmonary insufficiency in the absence of fluid overload or cardiac failure. At autopsy the most striking change was a marked pulmonary interstitial edema. The endothelial cell was the most altered structure, showing marked cytoplasmic swelling which narrowed the capillary lumen.

Hypoglycaemia in severe falciparum malaria
Transactions of the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1988The incidence of hypoglycaemia and the role of quinine in its causation was assessed in 46 patients with severe Plasmodium falciparum malaria. Plasma glucose and immunoreactive insulin were estimated before, during and after quinine therapy. In 5 patients the plasma glucose was in the hypoglycaemic range, the lowest value being 0.67 mmol/litre (12 mg ...

INTRAVASCULAR COAGULATION IN FALCIPARUM MALARIA
The Lancet, 1972Abstract In twenty-four patients with acute falciparum malaria, the serum levels of fibrin-degradation products (F.D.P.) were studied. Eleven patients had cerebral malaria and in all of them serum-F.D.P. levels were greatly raised. In patients severely ill with jaundice or hyperpyrexia serum-F.D.P. concentrations were also raised.
