Sequestration and Red Cell Deformability as Determinants of Hyperlactatemia in Falciparum Malaria
Background. Hyperlactatemia is a strong predictor of mortality in severe falciparum malaria. Sequestered parasitized erythrocytes and reduced uninfected red blood cell deformability (RCD) compromise microcirculatory flow, leading to anaerobic glycolysis. Methods. In a cohort of patients with falcipa...
