IL10 and malaria: No difference was found in the SMD of the IL-10 level between patients with severe malaria and those with non-severe malaria among studies that used bead-based assays for the IL-10’s quantification (p = 0.62, pooled SMD: 0.38, 95% CI: −1.13–1.89, I2: 98.73%, seven studies, Figure 7).
