The disappearance of malaria from Denmark, 1862–1900

The Economic History Review, EarlyView.
Abstract The reason for malaria's disappearance from northwestern Europe in the early twentieth century has long been discussed but remains an unresolved conundrum. This is partially due to a previous focus on the early modern era, and partially because various theories have never been tested against each other.

Estimates of adherence to treatment of vivax malaria [PDF]

Malaria Journal, 2014
The relation between therapeutic failure and non-adherence to treatment of malaria has been clearly established. Several measures have been used to estimate adherence to Plasmodium vivax therapy, but few protocols have been validated to ensure reliability of the estimates of adherence.

Development and efficacy of real-time PCR in the diagnosis of vivax malaria using field samples in the Republic of Korea. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
The development of sensitive, rapid, and accurate diagnostic methods for vivax malaria is essential for the effective control of malaria in the Republic of Korea, where vivax malaria patients usually show low parasitemia.

Primaquine ineligibility in anti-relapse therapy of Plasmodium vivax malaria: the problem of G6PD deficiency and cytochrome P-450 2D6 polymorphisms

Malaria Journal, 2018
The hypnozoite reservoir of Plasmodium vivax represents both the greatest obstacle and opportunity for ultimately eradicating this species. It is silent and cannot be diagnosed until it awakens and provokes a clinical attack with attendant morbidity ...

The Diagnostic Performance of a Sysmex XN‐31 Automated Malaria Analyzer vs. Expert Microscopy

International Journal of Laboratory Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Malaria is a common and life‐threatening infection. Malaria diagnosis needs to be fast and reliable. Although malaria microscopy is currently the gold standard, it is laborious, requires extensive training, and relies heavily on the proficiency of microscopists.

Comparison of the Cumulative Efficacy and Safety of Chloroquine, Artesunate, and Chloroquine-Primaquine in Plasmodium vivax Malaria

Clinical Infectious Diseases, 2018
Vivax malaria relapses frequently even in low-transmission settings. Chloroquine delays but does not prevent recurrences. Adding primaquine to a slowly eliminated schizonticide significantly reduces recurrences and improves hematocrit, but this advantage

Failure of combined chloroquine and High-Dose primaquine therapy for plasmodium vivax malaria acquired in Guyana, South America [PDF]

, 1996
The presence of chloroquine-resistant Plasmodium vivax malaria in the New World has been suspected but not confirmed. We report the cases of three patients who acquired vivax malaria in Guyana, South America, and for whom standard chloroquine therapy (25

Improved genetic screening with zygosity detection through multiplex high‐resolution melting curve analysis and biochemical characterisation for G6PD deficiency

Tropical Medicine &International Health, Volume 30, Issue 5, Page 437-457, May 2025.
Abstract Accurate diagnosis of glucose‐6‐phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency is crucial for relapse malaria treatment using 8‐aminoquinolines (primaquine and tafenoquine), which can trigger haemolytic anaemia in G6PD‐deficient individuals. This is particularly important in regions where the prevalence of G6PD deficiency exceeds 3%–5%, including ...
