Expression of CR1, CD55, CD59, and CD47 on uninfected normocytes in healthy, non-anaemic, and mildly-anaemic individuals from low malaria endemic region Sabah, Malaysia. CRP and CD47 expression was measured on uninfected normocytes in healthy controls, and patients with uncomplicated falciparum (a) or vivax (b) malaria. For malaria patients, individuals were grouped as non-anaemic and mild anaemic. p-values indicate Mann–Whitney nonparametric tests between groups. Boxplot’s lower and upper hinges represent first and third quartiles with median line indicated across the box. Whisker lines correspond to highest and lowest values no further than 1.5 interquartile range from the hinges whereas dot points beyond whisker lines are outliers
