  1. ‡OR represent odds ratios while CI represents confidence intervals. Uncomplicated malaria patients (UM) were assigned 0 while severe malaria (SM) patients were assigned 1 in the logistic regression analysis. OR above 1 represented value associated to SM patients while less than 1 value represented to UM patients.
