متن کاملFalse-positive results for rapid diagnostic tests for malaria in patients with rheumatoid factor.
Four different rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs) for malaria were evaluated by testing 82 healthy control patients, 89 Plasmodium vivax-infected patients, and 92 rheumatoid factor (RF)-positive nonmalaria patients.
