We calculated logistic regressions for the associations of nutrient patterns with clinical malaria (Plasmodium species with fever (≥ 37.5°C) or a history of fever within the last 2 weeks or prescribed anti-malaria medication) and anaemia (Hb < 11 g/dL).<h4>Results</h4>In this study population (n = 452; median age: 17 months (interquartile range: 12, 21); male sex: 52%), 25.0% of the children had clinical malaria, and 88.5% had anaemia. The gene discussed is GSTM1; the disease is anemia.
