QUINIDINE IN FALCIPARUM MALARIA

In six patients the infection had already recrudesced after antimalarial treatment, which in two cases had included a full course of quinine.

The treatment of severe falciparum malaria. [PDF]

BMJ, 1977
In severe falciparum malaria there is a pathophysiological cascade beginning with changes in the parasitized red blood cells which induce intermediate effects, in turn contributing to dysfunction of several organs. A low serum albumin is a common but often unrecognized finding which may contribute to oedema especially in the lung and brain.

Sex-partitioning of the Plasmodium falciparum stage V gametocyte proteome provides insight into falciparum-specific cell biology [PDF]

, 2014
One of the critical gaps in malaria transmission biology and surveillance is our lack of knowledge about Plasmodium falciparum gametocyte biology, especially sexual dimorphic development and how sex ratios that may influence transmission from the human ...

The Plasmodium falciparum, Nima-related kinase Pfnek-4: a marker for asexual parasites committed to sexual differentiation [PDF]

, 2012
<b>Background</b> Malaria parasites undergo, in the vertebrate host, a developmental switch from asexual replication to sexual differentiation leading to the formation of gametocytes, the only form able to survive in the mosquito vector ...
