  1. SM severe malaria, UM Uncomplicated malaria, CTR Control group, M male; F female; Hb Haemoglobin, ND the number of patients, for witch, the sex and the issue were undetermined and/or unknowned. The number of patients showed in each group SM, UM and CTR. Age is given with median values (minimum and maximum values are in parenthesis). Hb levels and parasite density distribution are given with the mean and SD values (standard deviation). Hb* values statistically significant when compared SM to UM with p < 0.001. Parasite density* p < 0.001 when comparing SM to UM
