They found that overall HbAS was nearly 40% protective against mild clinical malaria.
They argued that if the malaria protection provided by HbAS were innate, it should be independent of malaria exposure and remain constant with age.
In this month's PLoS Medicine , Thomas Williams and colleagues reason that the best way to test whether malaria protection by HbAS has a significant immune component is to see whether protection varies with age.
The authors conclude that the relevance of their current observations on mild clinical malaria to protection against severe and fatal malaria are unknown, and that further work must be done to better understand the role of HbAS in protection against malaria.
They note that in a recent study, conducted by another group in western Kenya, protection against severe malaria by HbAS was only seen in children 2–16 months old, but that in that study, no analysis was presented that addressed the effect of age within that range.
