Monitoring of the cases by the XN-31p during the treatment of malaria. a The M scattergrams obtained by the LM mode of the XN-31p from daily measurements of the samples of 6 patients during hospitalization. The parasitaemia calculated by microscopy and the MI-RBC% values detected by the LM mode of the XN-31p are shown in the tables under the scattergrams. b Changes in parasitaemia in each case during the monitoring period. The horizontal axes show days from the beginning of the treatment, and the vertical axes show parasitaemia detected by microscopy (dashed lines) and LM (solid lines) mode of the XN-31p. The black arrows indicate the days when parasite clearance in the patients’ blood was declared by microscopy, and the gray arrows indicate those detected by the LM mode of the XN-31p. Pf: P. falciparum, Pv: P. vivax, Pm: P. malariae, Pk: P. knowlesi
