Effect of nutritional anaemia on Plasmodium chabaudi infection. Clinical course in uninfected (white circle red line, black circle purple line) and P. chabaudi AS-infected (1 × 104 IEs i.p., white square blue line, black square green line), iron-deficient (white circle red line, white square blue line) or iron-replete mice (black circle purple line, black square green line). Panels depict a survival, b temperature, c parasitaemia, d weight change, e haemoglobin, and f reticulocyte fraction. Initial group sizes, group means (symbols) and SD (error bars; b–f) are indicated. For clarity, data regarding non-infected control animals (100% survival) are not shown in a
