In all patients with malaria, there were correlations between ADMA and SDMA with creatinine (rs = 0.45; p<0.001; rs = 0.69; p<0.001; Table 3), total bilirubin (rs = 0.32; p<0.001; rs = 0.36; p<0.001; Table 3), HRP2 (rs = 0.46; p<0.001; rs = 0.62; p<0.001; Table 3) and lactate (rs = 0.3; p = 0.01; rs = 0.29, p = 0.02; Table 3). The gene discussed is HDGFL2; the disease is malaria.
