Journal ArticleDOI

Dexamethasone proves deleterious in cerebral malaria. A double-blind trial in 100 comatose patients.

TL;DR: High-dose dexamethasone is deleterious in cerebral malaria and should no longer be used, and in a subgroup of 28 children six to 14 years old.
Journal ArticleDOI

The importance of anaemia in cerebral and uncomplicated falciparum malaria: role of complications, dyserythropoiesis and iron sequestration.

TL;DR: Dyserythropoiesis and erythrophagocytosis were often present on admission but sometimes appeared after the parasitaemia had cleared and persisted for at least three weeks into convalescence, suggesting disturbances in iron metabolism and haemopoiedis are not completely explicable by red blood cell parasitisation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Quinine pharmacokinetics and toxicity in cerebral and uncomplicated falciparum malaria

TL;DR: The benefits of high plasma concentrations in the acute phase of this life-threatening disease appear to outweigh the risks, particularly in view of the increasing resistance of Plasmodium falciparum to quinine in Southeast Asia.
Journal ArticleDOI

Quinine loading dose in cerebral malaria.

TL;DR: A loading dose of quinine proved a rapid and safe method of achieving plasma concentrations above the high minimum inhibitory concentrations for Plasmodium falciparum prevalent in Eastern Thailand.
