Parasitaemia progression in Plasmodium berghei-infected mice and supplemented with N-acetyl cysteine (NAC) or Agaricus sylvaticus. PC = animals infected with P. berghei, but not supplemented; NC = animals not infected and not supplemented. Group size: NC (1 day N = 10/10; 3 days N = 10/10; 5 days N = 10/10; 7 days N = 10/10; 10 days N = 10/10); PC (1 day N = 10/10; 3 days N = 10/10; 5 days N = 8^†¶/10; 7 days N = 7^†/10; 10 days N = 6^†/10); NAC (1 day N = 10/10; 3 days N = 10/10; 5 days N = 10/10; 7 days N = 8^†/10; 10 days N = 6^†/10); AS (1 day N = 10/10; 3 days N = 10/10; 5 days N = 10/10; 7 days N = 8^†/10; 10 days N = 5^†/10). Discrepancies in group size were due to dead animals (^†) or outliers (^¶). * p = 0.0016 versus Agaricus sylvaticus (AS) and p = 0.0031 versus NAC, ^τ p < 0.0001 versus AS and p = 0.0034 versus NAC
