Neglect of Plasmodium vivax malaria [PDF]
Trends in Parasitology, 2007 Plasmodium vivax infects 130-435 million of the 2.6 billion people living at risk of infection. Recent studies suggest that vivax malaria can become lethal in a similar way to severe falciparum malaria. First-line therapies remain unchanged after 50 years.

A model for malaria treatment evaluation in the presence of multiple species [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Plasmodium (P.) falciparum and P. vivax are the two most common causes of malaria. While the majority of deaths and severe morbidity are due to P. falciparum, P. vivax poses a greater challenge to eliminating malaria outside of Africa due to its ability to form latent liver stage parasites (hypnozoites), which can cause relapsing episodes within an ...

Unstable vivax malaria in Korea [PDF]
The Korean Journal of Parasitology, 2000 Korean vivax malaria had been prevalent for longtime throughout the country with low endemicity. As a result of the Korean war (1950-1953), malaria became epidemic. In 1959-1969 when the National Malaria Eradication Service (NMES) was implemented, malaria rates declined, with low endemicity in the south-west and south plain areas and high endemic foci ...

Return of vivax malaria in Cyprus
Archives of Disease in Childhood, 2018 Malaria elimination in Europe has been the focus of significant national and international effort, and in 2015 the WHO declared for the first time that there were no indigenous cases of malaria in the WHO European region.1 However, since that time there have been several localised outbreaks of malaria in countries throughout Europe. We report two cases
