Haematological and biochemical parameters in 106 malarial sufferers and 33 healthful subjects were evaluated. Following parameters have been considerably lower in all infection forms (P. vivax, P. falciparum and mixed infection); haemoglobin, blood sugar, PCV and blood urea, even though ESR is considerably larger in all varieties of infection whereas serum bilirubin and creatinine are significantly larger except mixed and vivax infection, respectively. Interestingly, parasitaemia, temperature and age are substantially correlated with blood urea, blood sugar and ESR respectively in vivax infection whereas parasitaemia with PCV and blood sugar and age with PCV in falciparum infection. Malaria infected subjects exhibited alterations in some haematological parameters with low haemoglobin, blood sugar and PCV whereas elevated ESR and serum bilirubin being the critical findings observed in our study. These evaluations could possibly be regarded to be trusted clinical and* Corresponding author. Tel.: +91 9934190987. E-mail addresses: mobassir.novel@gmail (M.M.
