Identifying Key Questions and Challenges in Microchimerism Biology

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies key unanswered questions about microchimerism, the presence of cells from one individual living in another. Experts highlight how these cells may affect health, pregnancy, and disease. This study outlines research priorities and challenges in detecting and studying these rare microchimeric cells, aiming to guide future discoveries

Declining Burden of Plasmodium vivax in a Population in Northwestern Thailand from 1995 to 2016 before Comprehensive Primaquine Prescription for Radical Cure. [PDF]

, 2020
All Plasmodium cases have declined over the last decade in northwestern Thailand along the Myanmar border. During this time, Plasmodium vivax has replaced Plasmodium falciparum as the dominant species. The decline in P.

Prospective evaluation of BDProbeTec strand displacement amplification (SDA) system for diagnosis of tuberculosis in non-respiratory and respiratory samples. [PDF]

, 2004
Nucleic acid amplification techniques (NAATs) have been demonstrated to make significant improvements in the diagnosis of tuberculosis (TB), particularly in the time to diagnosis and the diagnosis of smear-negative TB. The BD ProbeTec strand displacement

Ein neuer Malariawirkstoff hemmt die Proteinsynthese von Plasmodium falciparum

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Die Verbindung 31 stellt einen vielversprechenden Ansatz für die Entwicklung eines Malariawirkstoffs mit einem starken Wirkungsprofil dar (PfNF54 IC50 ± s.d. = 3,9 ± 0,4 nM). Sie hat einen neuartigen Wirkmechanismus, indem sie an zytosolische Ribosomen‐Untereinheiten bindet und dadurch die Proteinsynthese im Parasiten hemmt.

Influence of the number and timing of malaria episodes during pregnancy on prematurity and small-for-gestational-age in an area of low transmission

BMC Medicine, 2017
Background Most evidence on the association between malaria in pregnancy and adverse pregnancy outcomes focuses on falciparum malaria detected at birth.

The pathophysiology of severe falciparum malaria

Parasitology Today, 1986
By the end of the 1940s, the clinical and pathological features of severe falciparum malaria had been well described by military physicians and pathologists working in theatres of war where the disease was endemic. From that time serious efforts were made to discover the pathophysiology of the severe manifestations of malaria because an understanding ...

Probing Plasmodium falciparum sexual commitment at the single-cell level [PDF]

, 2018
Background: Malaria parasites go through major transitions during their complex life cycle, yet the underlying differentiation pathways remain obscure.

A Novel Antimalarial Agent that Inhibits Protein Synthesis in Plasmodium falciparum

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
Compound 31 represents a promising avenue for the development as an antimalarial agent with a potent activity profile (PfNF54 IC50 ± s.d. = 3.9 ± 0.4 nM). It has a novel mode of action by binding to cytosolic ribosomal subunits, thereby inhibiting protein synthesis in the parasite.

In vivo assessment of drug efficacy against Plasmodium falciparum malaria: duration of follow-up. [PDF]

, 2004
To determine the optimum duration of follow-up for the assessment of drug efficacy against Plasmodium falciparum malaria, 96 trial arms from randomized controlled trials (RCTs) with follow-up of 28 days or longer that were conducted between 1990 and 2003
