Malaria mortality in Africa and Asia: evidence from INDEPTH health and demographic surveillance system sites. [PDF]

, 2014
BACKGROUND: Malaria continues to be a major cause of infectious disease mortality in tropical regions. However, deaths from malaria are most often not individually documented, and as a result overall understanding of malaria epidemiology is inadequate ...

Clinical malaria case definition and malaria attributable fraction in the highlands of western Kenya. [PDF]

, 2014
BackgroundIn African highland areas where endemicity of malaria varies greatly according to altitude and topography, parasitaemia accompanied by fever may not be sufficient to define an episode of clinical malaria in endemic areas.

Patterns of age-specific mortality in children in endemic areas of sub-Saharan Africa. [PDF]

, 2007
Understanding of the age- and season- dependence of malaria mortality is an important prerequisite for epidemiologic models of malaria immunity. However, most studies of malaria mortality have aggregated their results into broad age groups and across ...

The Diverse Modes of Oxygen Reactivity in Life & Chemistry

ChemSusChem, Volume 15, Issue 24, December 20, 2022., 2022
Breath of life: Oxygen is the quintessential molecule of life on our planet. Three molecular oxygen species dominate natural and artificial oxygenation reactions: the singlet and triplet spin states of dioxygen and ozone. This Review summarizes key applications of these molecular oxygen species in biology, medicine, technologies, and laboratories ...
