Does diabetes change your risk of catching malaria?
NCT ID NCT06278181
Summary
This study aimed to understand if having type 2 diabetes changes a person's risk of getting malaria and other parasitic worm infections. Researchers in Cameroon followed 406 adults, some with diabetes and some without, for one year. They tested blood and stool samples regularly to see who got infected and to learn how diabetes might affect the body's natural defenses against these parasites.
