AB We examined the possible risk factors for poor prognostic in cerebral
malaria in 31 adults from Burundi, an area of high prevalence rate of
HIV-1 infection. Depth of coma, temperature, vomiting, seizures,
parasite load, or anaemia did not modify the outcome. High levels of
creatinine, bilirubin, and/or lactates were indicators of poor
prognostic. HIV-1 infection did not affect the clinical or biological
presentation of cerebral malaria, and did not appear to influence the
outcome.
