Plasmodium falciparum malaria in children at a tertiary teaching hospital: ABO blood group is a risk factor
BACKGROUND: ABO blood group antigens are formed by terminal glycosylation of glycoproteins and glycolipid chains present on cell surfaces. Glycosylation modulates all kinds of cell-to-cell interactions and this may be relevant in malaria pathophysiology, in which adhesion has been increasingly impli...
