The role of prolonged exposure to parasitemia in the high morbidity in children with Sickle cell anaemia in Uganda
REFNo: HS1496ES
Primary Aims
1. To determine the rate of parasite clearance during artesunate therapy in children with sickle cell anaemia compared to children without SCA.
We hypothesize that children with SCA will experience parasite clearance half-life times exceeding the WHO-defined standard of 5 hours when treated with artemisinins for P. falciparum malaria, whereas children without SCA will not experience this delayed parasite clearance.
2. To determine the association between parasite clearance rate and risk of vaso-occlusive crisis, severe anaemia, and any hospitalisation in children with SCA.
We hypothesize that prolonged parasite clearance will correlate with increased risk of SCA-related sequelae.
3. To determine the association between kidney and splenic function and parasite clearance half-life during artesunate treatment for malaria.
We hypothesize that impaired renal function (estimated creatinine clearance) and splenic function (presence of Howell-Jolly bodies) will correlate with increased parasite clearance half-life.
Secondary Aims
1. To determine the incidence of treatment failure (new clinical malaria within a 28-day follow-up period after microscopy-confirmed parasite clearance) after artemisinin combination therapy for malaria
2. To detect and measure the prevalence of parasite genetic markers of artemisinin resistance in Jinja
