Severe Hypoglycemia and Hyperinsulinemia in Falciparum Malaria

TL;DR: Observations indicate that in falciparum malaria quinine-induced insulin secretion may precipitate hypoglycemia, but other factors, including the large glucose requirements of the malaria parasites may also contribute.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prediction, prevention, and mechanism of early (anaphylactic) antivenom reactions in victims of snake bites.

TL;DR: Higher doses of antivenom might induce the complement activation and formation of immune complexes (aggregates) that have been observed during the clinically more severe reactions associated with homologous immunoglobulin treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Antigen-specific immunosuppression in human malaria due to Plasmodium falciparum.

TL;DR: The results indicate that blood-stage plasmodial infections may suppress responses important for immunity to malaria and so allow the parasite to survive and suggest that patients acutely or even recently infected with P. falciparum may not respond as well to a malaria vaccine as would uninfected individuals.
