Malaria Journal, 2022 Background Transmission of malaria in sub-Saharan Africa has become increasingly stratified following decades of malaria control interventions. The extent to which environmental and land cover risk factors for malaria may differ across distinct strata of

Biology of Malaria Transmission [PDF]
Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Medicine, 2016 Understanding transmission biology at an individual level is a key component of intervention strategies that target the spread of malaria parasites from human to mosquito. Gametocytes are specialized sexual stages of the malaria parasite life cycle developed during evolution to achieve crucial steps in transmission.

Larviciding to prevent malaria transmission
Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2019 Larviciding refers to the regular application of chemical or microbial insecticides to water bodies or water containers to kill the aquatic immature forms of the mosquito (the larvae and pupae).To summarize research evidence evaluating whether larviciding with chemical or microbial insecticides prevents malaria transmission.We searched the Cochrane ...

The economic burden of malaria on households and the health system in a high transmission district of Mozambique [PDF]
Malaria Journal, 2019 Malaria remains a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in Mozambique. Increased investments in malaria control have reduced the burden, but few studies have estimated the costs of malaria in the country.

Malaria transmission dynamics under climate change and solar geoengineering in South Asia: a GLENS-based assessment [PDF]
Malaria JournalBackground Climate change is expected to reshape malaria transmission dynamics in tropical and subtropical regions. Stratospheric Aerosol Injection (SAI), a proposed solar geoengineering strategy to reduce global warming, could have unintended ...

Human mobility, garimpos and spatiotemporal malaria transmission in the Yanomami Indigenous Territory: a retrospective observational studyResearch in context [PDF]
The Lancet Regional Health. AmericasSummary: Background: Past research on human mobility and malaria transmission often used coarse spatial scales, limiting effectiveness for targeted control strategies — especially as transmission becomes more localized with lower incidence. This is seen

Gold miners augment malaria transmission in indigenous territories of Roraima state, Brazil
Malaria Journal, 2022 Background Endemic malaria is present in all 15 municipalities of Roraima state, Brazilian Amazonia. Knowledge of epidemiological data of specific populations can guide health policies to formulate effective strategies for integrated control of health ...

Review of Issues on Residual Malaria Transmission
Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2021 Residual malaria transmission is the actual maintained inoculation of Plasmodium, in spite of a well-designed and implemented vector control programs, and is of great concern for malaria elimination.

Standard Selection Treatments with Sulfadiazine Limit Plasmodium yoelii Host-to-Vector Transmission
mSphere, 2022 Some antimalarial drugs that have lost clinical usefulness have been repurposed for experimental applications. One example is sulfadiazine, an analog of p-aminobenzoic acid (pABA), which inhibits the parasite’s folate synthesis pathway to block DNA ...
