A world malaria map: Plasmodium falciparum endemicity in 2007 [PDF]

, 2009
BACKGROUND: Efficient allocation of resources to intervene against malaria requires a detailed understanding of the contemporary spatial distribution of malaria risk. It is exactly 40 y since the last global map of malaria endemicity was published.

The use of spatial and genetic tools to assess Plasmodium falciparum transmission in Lusaka, Zambia between 2011 and 2015

Malaria Journal, 2020
Background Zambia has set itself the ambitious target of eliminating malaria by 2021. To continue tracking transmission to zero, new interventions, tools and approaches are required.

A semi-field evaluation in Thailand of the use of human landing catches (HLC) versus human-baited double net trap (HDN) for assessing the impact of a volatile pyrethroid spatial repellent and pyrethroid-treated clothing on Anopheles minimus landing

Malaria Journal, 2023
Background The mosquito landing rate measured by human landing catches (HLC) is the conventional endpoint used to evaluate the impact of vector control interventions on human-vector exposure.

Presumptive treatment of fever cases as malaria: help or hindrance for malaria control? [PDF]

, 2008
BACKGROUND: Malaria incidence has been reported to be falling in several countries in sub-Saharan Africa in recent years. This fall appears to have started before the widespread introduction of insecticide-treated nets.

Operational strategies of anti-malarial drug campaigns for malaria elimination in Zambia's southern province: a simulation study [PDF]

, 2016
BACKGROUND: Malaria elimination requires reducing both the potential of mosquitoes to transmit parasites to humans and humans to transmit parasites to mosquitoes. To achieve this goal in Southern province, Zambia a mass test and treat (MTAT) campaign was

Structural Variants in the Human Genome Associated With Gut Microbiome and Blood Metabolic Traits With Potential Causal Links

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Based on a multi‐omics cohort of 2002 individuals comprising high‐depth whole‐genome and metagenomic sequencing data, blood metabolites, and detailed questionnaires, we identified 138 859 high‐confidence SVs, uncovering 36 significant SV–microbiome associations and 48 SV–blood metabolite associations.

Malaria elimination and the need for intensive inter-country cooperation: a critical evaluation of regional technical co-operation in Southern Africa

Malaria Journal
Background Malaria elimination requires closely co-ordinated action between neighbouring countries. In Southern Africa several countries have reduced malaria to low levels, but the goal of elimination has eluded them thus far.

Artificial Intelligence‐Driven Network Pharmacology: A Methodological Paradigm Shift Bridging Traditional Wisdom and Modern Science

Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
Artificial intelligence is redefining network pharmacology (NP). By integrating knowledge graph engineering, geometric deep learning, multiomics anchoring, and generative reasoning, AI‐driven NP (AI‐NP) transforms static target mapping into dynamic, predictive modeling.

Using the Entomological Inoculation Rate to Assess the Impact of Vector Control on Malaria Parasite Transmission and Elimination. [PDF]

, 2010
Prior studies have shown that annual entomological inoculation rates (EIRs) must be reduced to less than one to substantially reduce the prevalence of malaria infection.
