Nutritional Intervention for Malaria-Induced NTS Bacteremia

Shirley Luckhart and colleagues at the University of California Davis in the U.S. will develop and test in a mouse model a simple, safe, and cost-effective immune- enhancing nutritional supplement that could reverse and prevent intestinal damage thought to be cause by malarial infection. This intervention could improve immunity to bacterial infections that co-occur in children also suffering from malaria.
