In vivo anti-malarial activity of propranolol against experimental Plasmodium berghei ANKA infection in mice

Abstract: Background: Malaria is a mosquito-borne infectious disease caused by Plasmodium spp, which is widespread in tropical and subtropical regions of the world. The objective of this study is to evaluate in vivo antimalarial activity of propranolol against experimental Plasmodium berghei ANKA (PbA) infection in a mouse model.Methods: A total of 36 mice weighing between 15 to 18g were randomly divided into six groups of six mice each. Mice in the first group (SAL) were non-infected with P. berghei but received normal… Show more

“…Such misinformation could misguide young academics into the correct use of ANOVA test in data analysis. Adeyemi et al (2020) in article number 1 compared the difference among mean temperatures of six categorical independent variables without using the ANOVA test (Idenya and Gichangi 2020). Although no statistical test was mentioned to have been employed in the analysis, ANOVA test is conspicuously missing in the whole article.…”

“…Data collected from a sample population are analysed using appropriate statistical tests to provide a useful information about the population. However, improper use of these statistical tests may result in erroneous conclusions, misleading interpretations and inferences to the main population (Adeyemi et al 2020). One such widely used statistical tests is analysis of variance (ANOVA).…”

“…Non-parasitized control (n= 12) was also treated with 5% Tween 80 in distilled water. Treatment was administered for 3 days starting from day 5 post-infection as earlier reported 38 . Parasitemia was determined daily and average percentage parasitemia was calculated as earlier described 37 .…”
