  Definition / general Malaria (from the Italian "mal' aria," meaning "bad air") is an acute and sometimes chronic bloodstream infection characterized by fever, anemia and splenomegaly, caused by apicomplexan parasites of the genus Plasmodium Four species [pathologyoutlines.com]

  Black water fever: It is a manifestation of falciparum malaria occurring in previously infected individuals and is characterized by sudden intravascular hemolysis followed by fever and haemoglobinuria. [onlinebiologynotes.com]

• Weakness

  The most frequent symptoms include fever and chills, which can be accompanied by headache, myalgias, arthralgias, weakness, vomiting, and diarrhea. Other clinical features include splenomegaly, anemia, and thrombocytopenia. [atlas.or.kr]

  Acute Symptoms Classical features include cyclic symptoms Cold stage: chills and shaking Hot stage: fever, headache, vomiting, seizures in children Sweating stage: weakness Feel well for a period of time, then the cycle repeats itself Other Physical symptoms [universe84a.com]

  The most severe form is caused by P. falciparum; variable clinical features include fever, chills, headache, muscular aching and weakness, vomiting, cough, diarrhoea and abdominal pain. [who.int]

  Symptoms of uncomplicated malaria might include: chills diarrhea fever headaches muscle pain nausea sweating vomiting weakness. [parasitesinhumans.org]

  SEVERE MALARIA Cases of malaria that are marked by one or more of the following symptoms: coma, convulsions, a severe drop in blood pressure, difficulty in breathing, jaundice, blood in the urine, extreme weakness or prostration, kidney impairment, severe [doi.org]

• Fatigue

  Typical malaria symptoms include fever, chills, fatigue, headache, nausea, and vomiting. In severe cases, it can cause jaundice, seizures, coma, or death. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  Malaria infection is generally characterised by fever, chills, headache, nausea, vomiting, muscle pains and fatigue. Occasionally, the signs and symptoms of malaria may include sweating, chest pains, abdominal pains, and cough. [sundaymail.co.zw]

  Patients often then experience profuse sweating and fatigue. These paroxysmal cycles can last several hours, and usually coincide with the synchronous rupture of blood schizonts. Cycles usually happen every 48 to 72 hours. [bu.edu]

  Onset of a P. falciparum malaria attack occurs from 8 to 12 days after infection and is preceded by 3 to 4 days of vague symptoms such as aches, pains, headache, fatigue, anorexia, or nausea. [web.archive.org]

  Symptoms Signs and symptoms of malaria may include: Fever Chills General feeling of discomfort Headache Nausea and vomiting Diarrhea Abdominal pain Muscle or joint pain Fatigue Rapid breathing Rapid heart rate Cough Some people who have malaria experience [mayoclinic.org]

• Swelling

  The crescentic parasites swell to become large spherical cells and escape from the host cell by osmotic or enzymic activity. [doi.org]

  Cerebral malaria is extremely rare, but it can happen when the parasite within red blood cells causes them to stick together, resulting in obstruction of blood vessels to the brain, starving the brain of oxygen, leading to swelling on the brain. [euroclinix.net]

  If parasite-filled blood cells block small blood vessels to your brain (cerebral malaria), swelling of your brain or brain damage may occur. Cerebral malaria may cause seizures and coma. Breathing problems. [mayoclinic.org]

• Disability

• Vomiting

  Typical malaria symptoms include fever, chills, fatigue, headache, nausea, and vomiting. In severe cases, it can cause jaundice, seizures, coma, or death. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  This attack could be signified by a fever higher than 38% that can fluctuate over the course of a couple of hours, headaches, influenza, diarrhoea, nausea and vomiting. [euroclinix.net]

  The onset is characterized by fever, a more severe headache, and nausea and vomiting, with occasional severe epigastric pain. There may be only a feeling of chilliness at the onset of fever. [web.archive.org]
