nitrites and Malaria

nitrites has been researched along with Malaria in 13 studies

Nitrites: Salts of nitrous acid or compounds containing the group NO2-. The inorganic nitrites of the type MNO2 (where M=metal) are all insoluble, except the alkali nitrites. The organic nitrites may be isomeric, but not identical with the corresponding nitro compounds. (Grant & Hackh's Chemical Dictionary, 5th ed)

Malaria: A protozoan disease caused in humans by four species of the PLASMODIUM genus: PLASMODIUM FALCIPARUM; PLASMODIUM VIVAX; PLASMODIUM OVALE; and PLASMODIUM MALARIAE; and transmitted by the bite of an infected female mosquito of the genus ANOPHELES. Malaria is endemic in parts of Asia, Africa, Central and South America, Oceania, and certain Caribbean islands. It is characterized by extreme exhaustion associated with paroxysms of high FEVER; SWEATING; shaking CHILLS; and ANEMIA. Malaria in ANIMALS is caused by other species of plasmodia.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"In Brazil, malaria is prevalent in the Amazon region and these regions coincide with high prevalence of intestinal parasites but few studies explore the interaction between malaria and other parasites."1.40Intestinal parasites coinfection does not alter plasma cytokines profile elicited in acute malaria in subjects from endemic area of Brazil. ( Aprígio, CJ; Banic, DM; Fonseca e Fonseca, BP; Lima, CA; Lima-Junior, JC; Oliveira-Ferreira, J; Perce-da-Silva, DS; Pereira, VA; Rodrigues-da-Silva, RN; Sánchez-Arcila, JC; Vasconcelos, MP, 2014)
"Autoimmune disease is generally rare in tropical rural populations."1.29Does malarial tolerance, through nitric oxide, explain the low incidence of autoimmune disease in tropical Africa? ( al-Yaman, FM; Clark, IA; Cowden, WB; Rockett, KA, 1996)
