Relationship between the entomologic inoculation rate and the force of infection for Plasmodium falciparum malaria. [PDF]

, 2006
We propose a stochastic model for the relationship between the entomologic inoculation rate (EIR) for Plasmodium falciparum malaria and the force of infection in endemic areas.

FALCIPARUM MALARIA

The Professional Medical Journal, 2011
Introduction: Quinine and quinidines remain the drugs of choice for chloroquine resistant Plasmodium falciparum malaria. In 1972, Chinese scientists discovered the antimalarial properties of a group of compounds from the qinghao plant (Artemisia annua) which have activity against all malaria causing parasites including multi-drug resistant strains of ...

A molecular mechanism of artemisinin resistance in Plasmodium falciparum malaria

Nature, 2015
Artemisinins are the cornerstone of anti-malarial drugs. Emergence and spread of resistance to them raises risk of wiping out recent gains achieved in reducing worldwide malaria burden and threatens future malaria control and elimination on a global ...
