FIGURE 2.
Zambian early childhood malaria cohort. We observed an interaction between CYB5R3c.350C > G genotypes (wildtype, heterozygote, hemizygote) and risk categories of G6PD A alleles on severe anemia (P = .017). We therefore stratified our analysis according to the presence or absence of G6PD risk categories. A, In G6PD wildtype children or heterozygotes for A alleles, CYB5R3c.350C > G offered protection against severe anemia (P = .030 after adjustment for the covariates mentioned in Figure 1). B, In hemizygotes or homozyogtes for G6PD A+ or G6PD A−, CYB5R3c.350C > G did not show protection from severe malarial anemia
