PubMedID- 24572501 The mechanisms that produce thrombocytopenia in malaria are not known but seem related to a greater severity of illness (25).
PubMedID- 22866922 P. falciparum malaria is associated with thrombocytopenia in pregnant women in this setting.
PubMedID- 23723981 Nevertheless, thrombocytopenia in malaria seems to be a multifactorial phenomenon and probably involves an increase in platelets destruction and consumption .
PubMedID- 21073022 Platelet transfusions are not required for malaria patients with thrombocytopenia who have no bleeding.
PubMedID- 25604366 thrombocytopenia in malaria: can platelet counts differentiate malaria from other infections.
PubMedID- 23777034 Resurgence of complicated malaria associated with severe thrombocytopenia in a tertiary care hospital in delhi.
PubMedID- 23350022 The pathogenesis of thrombocytopenia in malaria have been suggested due to peripheral destruction, splenic pooling or consumption coagulopathy but de mast et al have hypothesized that thrombocytopenia in early malaria is associated with gpib shedding in absence of systemic platelet activation and consumptive coagulopathy.25 malaria is considered to show seasonal variation in india with maximum prevalence in rainy season from july to november.7 the study also showed that positive predictive value of thrombocytopenia for the malaria infection increased during the months of july to october when maximum number of cases were reported in the laboratory while it decreased during the other months and thus the role of thrombocytopenia as predictor for malaria is retained and shows increase when the incidence of malaria increases.
PubMedID- 25928218 thrombocytopenia is commonly associated with malaria in hiv- populations and our data is consistent with a recent study that also reported normal platelet counts in hiv co-infected subjects .

PubMedID- 22289302 A study investigating the relationship that parasite density has on platelet count showed that malaria-infected children with thrombocytopenia (decreased platelet count) were younger, had higher parasitaemia, lower hemoglobin levels, an increased mean platelet volume, and exhibited platelet aggregation .
