Association of Parasite Density and Hematological Parameters of Plasmodium vivax- and Plasmodium falciparum-infected Patients Attending Merauke General Hospital, Papua, Indonesia
Abstract:BACKGROUND: Plasmodium falciparum and Plasmodium vivax are frequent causes of malaria. Although they are blood parasites, their biological characteristics are dissimilar, and their species-related consequences on hematological parameters have not been widely investigated. They might be valuable to distinguish both species infection, notably for an endemic region with limited diagnostic resources.
AIM: This study aimed to know the species-specific effect on hematological parameters and its correlation to … Show more
