| No. HCMs/500 monocytes, In | 0.27 | 0.07-0.47 | 0.30 | .009 |

| No. HCMs/500 monocytes, In | 0.27 | 0.07-0.47 | 0.30 | .009 |
| TNF-α, log concentration | 0.30 | 0.04-0.56 | 0.23 | .02 |
The independent variables included were hemozoin-containing monocytes (HCMs, as number per 500 monocytes), hemozoin-containing neutrophils (HCNs, as number per 500 neutrophils), and the concentration of cytokines TNF-α, IL-10, IL-12p70, and IFN-γ. The variables showing a significant association with reticulocyte difference in the univariate analysis were entered into the multiple linear regression analysis. We show the direct value of the slope (B), the 95% confidence inteval (95% CI) of the slope, and the standardized value of the slope (β) for the variables significantly associated with the dependent variables in the multiple regression analyses
