TABLE II. Comparison of reactivity indices (RI) from plasmas originating from asymptomatic and symptomatic individuals shows differing patterns of recognition.
Tested parasite lineage | S20ICAM | S20CD36 | 99ICAM | 99CD36 | 106ICAM | 106CD36 | 3D7PFD0020c | 3D7Pf11_0521 | 134ICAM | 134CD36 | 3D7ICAM | 3D7CD36 |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
p | 0.8417 | 0.0458 | 0.8310 | 0.8432 | 0.2331 | 0.5736 | 0.0100 | 0.0252 | 0.0707 | 0.0113 | 0.0023 | 0.0098 |
the significance of difference of the RI from asymptomatic and symptomatic patient’s plasmas reacting against the shown parasite lineages was evaluated using Mann-Whitney’s U test without normalisation of the data. Note that 134CD36 and 3D7Pf11_0521 were recognised stronger by plasmas from symptomatic infections.
