Safety of Prenatal Anti‐Infective Use and Offspring Outcomes: A Panoramic Assessment by Indication, Drug Class, and Exposure Characteristics

iMetaMed, Volume 2, Issue 3, September 2026.
Based on the comprehensive, panoramic assessment of the safety of prenatal anti‐infective use across indications, drug classes, and exposure characteristics, potential safety signals associated with prenatal exposure to several widely used anti‐infective drug classes were identified, including macrolides, metronidazole, tetracyclines, sulfonamides ...

Solubility enhancing lipid-based vehicles for artemether and lumefantrine destined for the possible treatment of induced malaria and inflammation: in vitro and in vivo evaluations

Beni-Suef University Journal of Basic and Applied Sciences
Background The lipid self-emulsifying system has been advanced as a promising delivery vehicle for improving the solubility and bioavailability of artemether and lumefantrine. However, the observed kinetic instability (propensity of lumefantrine to rapid

Five years of antimalarial resistance marker surveillance in Gaza Province, Mozambique, following artemisinin-based combination therapy roll out. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
Antimalarial drug resistance is a major obstacle to malaria control and eventual elimination. The routine surveillance for molecular marker of resistance is an efficient way to assess drug efficacy, which remains feasible in areas where malaria control ...

Age‐Related and Seasonal Variation in Malaria and Other Causes of Fever and Their Association With Clinical Outcomes in Southern Angola: A Hospital‐Based Study

Tropical Medicine &International Health, Volume 31, Issue 9, Page 1273-1283, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Acute febrile illnesses in sub‐Saharan Africa are often attributed to malaria, yet many patients test negative for malaria parasites. The aetiology of nonmalarial fevers remains understudied. Here, we examine likely causes of febrile illnesses and their association with poor clinical outcomes in Angola.

Green Chiral HPLC Method for Lumefantrine Analysis: Method Development, Greenness Assessment, and Computational Studies

Chirality, Volume 38, Issue 8, August 2026.
A green chiral HPLC method was developed and validated for the determination of lumefantrine enantiomers. The method employs ethanol as a mobile phase as a sustainable and efficient alternative to hexane. The chiral recognition mechanism and elution order of the enantiomers were investigated using electronic circular dichroism and molecular docking ...

Early clinical development of artemether-lumefantrine dispersible tablet: palatability of three flavours and bioavailability in healthy subjects

Malaria Journal, 2010
Background Efforts to ease administration and enhance acceptability of the oral anti-malarial artemether-lumefantrine (A-L) crushed tablet to infants and children triggered the development of a novel dispersible tablet of A-L. During early development of

Short‐Course Low‐Dose Primaquine for Radical Cure in G6PD‐Normal Patients in the Pre‐Elimination Context of Nepal

Tropical Medicine &International Health, Volume 31, Issue 8, Page 1028-1034, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Plasmodium vivax remains a challenge for malaria elimination in Nepal due to its ability to relapse. Radical cure with primaquine is effective but limited by poor adherence to the standard 14‐day low‐dose regimen. In 2022, the WHO recommended administering the same total dose (3.5 mg/kg) over 7 days to improve adherence.

Gossypiboma‐Induced Acute Abdomen Highlighting the Importance of Surgical Safety Protocols: A Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Gossypiboma, the medical term for a retained surgical sponge, is a rare but serious postoperative complication, accounting for nearly 50% of malpractice claims related to retained foreign bodies. Despite its importance, it is often underreported due to medicolegal concerns.

Advancing Maternal Health with Long‐Acting Therapeutics: Priorities, Efficacy and Safety Considerations, and Emerging Technologies

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, Volume 119, Issue 5, Page 1179-1194, May 2026.
Maternal health remains a critical global concern, particularly in underserved populations and in low‐ and middle‐income countries where access to safe and effective therapeutics is limited. Despite the use of medications by most women during pregnancy, the exclusion of pregnant and lactating women from clinical trials has resulted in significant data ...
