摘要
Severe malaria manifests as several overlapping syndromes with high mortality. Interaction of parasites with endothelial protein C receptors and high parasite biomass have recently been identifed as key determinants of severe disease. However, gaps in our understanding of severe malaria might hinder translation of these fndings into new therapies.
