BACKGROUND: Cerebral malaria (CM) is often fatal, and severe brain swelling is a predictor of CM-related mortality. CM is characterized by elevated circulating pro-inflammatory cytokines TNF and IFN-γ and anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10, however whether cytokine levels correlate with brain swelling...
