Flow chart of Blantyre Malaria Project (BMP) study patient recruitment between 2015 and 2017. CM and UM patients were recruited from Queen Elizabeth Central Hospital (QECH) in Blantyre, Malawi. HC subjects were recruited from Ndirande Health Centre, attending for routine vaccine and health check-up. CM patients were excluded due to failure to meet inclusion criteria (including quick resolution of coma following enrollment), positive blood or CSF cultures, or an alternative diagnosis after enrollment. Plasma samples were collected and analyzed for cfDNA analysis.
