Chemoresistance in falciparum malaria
Trends in Parasitology, 2003Tropical countries increasingly face the burden of drug resistance in Plasmodium falciparum infections. Malaria-related mortality of African children rises in contrast to the decline of the overall mortality of children under five years of age in sub-Saharan Africa within the past four decades.

Journal of the American Medical Association, 1944
Prior to and since the entry of the United States into the present war, a large number of American civilians have been employed in construction and other occupations in tropical areas where falciparum malaria is endemic or hyperendemic. Already a number of these persons have returned to this country. Some give a history of having had recognized malaria

Falciparum malaria and pregnancy
Transactions of the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1979During pregnancy an increase occurs in the prevalence and density of Plasmodium falciparum malaria. The increase relative to non-pregnant women remains fairly constant with age though there is an over-all decrease in prevalence and density in both groups with age. The increase is at a height relatively early in pregnancy and declines after mid-term. At

Falciparum malaria in children
Current Opinion in Pediatrics, 1996Recent reports have substantiated claims that the clinical spectrum of falciparum malaria is different in African children as compared with nonimmune adults. The SPf66 vaccine has been tried in African children with varying success, but only insecticide-treated bed nets have reduced the mortality.

Chloroquine-Resistant Falciparum Malaria
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1967To the Editor:— The Journal( 200 :886, 1967) featured an important editorial on falciparum malaria. It is certainly vital to alert the clinician to the problem of chloroquine resistance. The editorial outlines well the alternative treatment being used. I am not sure, however, that one statement is entirely warranted.

Gametocytemia in Falciparum Malaria
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1971To the Editor.— We have always recognized the difference in treatment of the asexual and sexual forms of malaria. People forget that the asexual forms of Plasmodium falciparum malaria parasites have a 48-hour cycle as compared to a ten-day or two-week cycle for gametocytes.
