摘要: The occurrence, relation and magnitude of thrombocytopenia in different species malaria are not clearly defined. This study included 1,064 patients admitted with to (platelet count <150,000 /cumm) Plasmodium falciparum (Pf) vivax (Pv) mono infection mixed (Pf + Pv). diagnosis was done by peripheral blood film (PBF) rapid diagnostic test (RDT). Validation polymerase chain reaction (PCR) only severe <20,000 /cumm). breakup 525 (49.34%) Pf, 460 (43.23%) Pv 79 (7.42%) Thrombocytopenia observed 24.6% (262/1064) patients. risk greatest the infections comparison monoinfection individually (43.04% [34/79]; vs monoinfection: Odds Ratio [OR] = 1.675 [95% Confidence Interval (CI) 1.029–2.726], p < 0.0366; Pf OR=3.911 CI 2.367–6.463], p < 0.0001). monoinfect...
