Aetiologies, neuroradiological features, and risk factors for mortality and long-term neurosequelae of febrile coma in Malawian children: a prospective cohort study

Abstract:: Background: Children in febrile coma in Africa are frequently hospitalised, with poorer outcomes than those in high-income settings. Cerebral malaria is historically the most common cause of febrile coma.
