Malaria epidemiology, clinical characteristics, and concurrent infections in Delhi, India: A hospital-based study
Plasmodium vivax and Plasmodium falciparum were found in 2.07 % patients with a slight increase between 2022 and 2023. None of the factors tested were found to be associated with co-infections (dengue, chikungunya, and typhoid fever) or severe malaria, but in contrast, the climatic period July - September and being male were risk factors for malaria infection.
