Prevalence and molecular characterization of G6PD deficiency in two Plasmodium vivax endemic areas in Venezuela: predominance of the African A-(202A/376G) variant
BACKGROUND: Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency causes acute haemolytic anaemia triggered by oxidative drugs such as primaquine (PQ), used for Plasmodiumvivax malaria radical cure. However, in many endemic areas of vivax malaria, patients are treated with PQ without any evaluation of...
