Transfusion‐transmitted malaria in India: A national survey of epidemiology and testing practices
Abstract Background and Objectives Malaria still poses a public health burden in India despite ongoing elimination efforts. Blood donor screening for malaria is mandated in India, yet data on transfusion‐transmitted malaria (TTM) are lacking. We sought to evaluate testing practices for malaria, associated rates of positivity in donors and reported ...

Chemotherapeutics for vivax malaria [PDF]
Plasmodium vivax imposes significant burdens of morbidity and mortality across the malaria endemic world. Treatment of this infection requires a blood schizontocide against the acute attack and hypnozoitocide against relapses. Chloroquine combined with primaquine has been the therapy of choice for radical cure of vivax malaria since the 1950s ...

Solar Geoengineering Effects on Malaria Transmission Risk in South Asia Under G6sulfur Scenario
Comparison of EIR (unit: No of infected bites per person per day) for each considered country in South Asia, under the considered scenarios, averaged over the period 2020–2090. A regression equation is shown for each country (for Bhutan EIRG = 0.1690 × 10−10 EIRS + 0.5968 × 10−12) to illustrate the projected trend.

Ecology of Malaria Mortality: A Spatiotemporal Mapping Approach
ABSTRACT Objectives This study examines the spatiotemporal ecology of probable malaria mortality in 19th‐century southern Ontario to evaluate how settlement expansion, landscape transformation, and infrastructure development structured transmission risk in a temperate, settler‐colonial context.

Regency of Tanah Bumbu has an annual parasitic incidence rate (API) 0.82 and in 2016 the number of API decreased to 0.48. However, there are malaria cases that still occur in the 5 (five) locations of the workplace of the public health center with the ...

Despite their evolutionary relatedness to malaria parasites that infect humans, wildlife Plasmodium—particularly those that infect birds and lizards—are understudied, leaving their vast genetic diversity to be explored. By assembling parasite transcriptomes from Plasmodium‐infected lizard blood, we provide the first evidence that lizard‐infective ...
