Plasmodium berghei: Lactic acidosis and hypoglycaemia in a rodent model of severe malaria; effects of glucose, quinine, and dichloroacetate

Fulminant malaria infections are characterised by hypoglycaemia and potentially lethal lactic acidosis. In young adult Wistar rats (n = 26) infected with Plasmodium berghei (ANKA strain), hyperparasitaemia (>50%), anaemia (PCV 19.6 ± 5.3%; mean ± SD) hypoglycaemia (1.04 ± 0.74 mmol/litre), hyperl...
