Relationship between SCGF and anemia. Plasma was obtained from children with acute malaria and SCGF concentrations were determined by ELISA. (A) Correlation between SCGF concentrations and Hb levels in parasitemic children (n = 83) determined by Spearman's correlation coefficient. (B) Association between SCGF levels and anemia severity in parasitemic children with SMA (n = 25) and non-SMA (n = 58). Boxes represent the interquartile range, the line through the box is the median, and whiskers show 10th and 90th percentiles. Statistical significance was determined by the Mann-Whitney U test.
