Variation in Biomarkers of Oxidative stress. The concentration of MDA (a) increased but the concentration of GSH (b) and activity GPx (c) as well as that of CAT (d) decreased between healthy control and malaria as well as between the SCD control and SCD malaria group. The mean MDA, GSH, GPx and CAT were significantly different (ANOVA, P < 0.001). MDA: Malondialdehyde; GSH: reduced glutathione; GPx: glutathione peroxidase; CAT: Catalase
