Comparisons between parasite groups of different dhfr/dhps genotype profile; wild parasite infections and infections with different number of mutations (MOM 1 to MOM 5), and in each parasite group between infections obtained from patients attended adequate clinical response (ACR) (white bars) and those had treatment failure (TF) (back bars). The test parameters were; A. The proportions of patients with different treatment outcome in each group (upper) B. The mean ages of the parasite donors in years (middle). C. The pre-treatment parasite density (lower). The pattern in wild infections and infections with single mutation (MOM 1) was different from that in infections with MOM 2 to 5.
