Epidemiology of Malaria in an Area Prepared for Clinical Trials in Korogwe, North-eastern Tanzania. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Site preparation is a pre-requesite in conducting malaria vaccines trials. This study was conducted in 12 villages to determine malariometric indices and associated risk factors, during long and short rainy seasons, in an area with varying malaria ...

Assessment of Antibodies Induced by Multivalent Transmission-Blocking Malaria Vaccines

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
A malaria transmission-blocking vaccine would be a critical tool in achieving malaria elimination and eradication. By using chimpanzee adenovirus serotype 63 and modified vaccinia virus Ankara viral vectored vaccines, we investigated whether ...

Life Course Malaria Exposure and SARS‐CoV‐2 Seroepidemiology in Ugandan Adolescents: A Longitudinal Study Nested in a Birth Cohort

open access: yesTropical Medicine &International Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background COVID‐19 has had major global health impacts, yet reported morbidity and mortality have been lower in Africa despite serological evidence of widespread infection. Malaria has been proposed as a potential modifier of susceptibility to and outcomes of SARS‐CoV‐2 infection.

Validation of Health Belief Model and Theory of Planned Behaviour Constructs for Predicting Malaria Vaccine Acceptance in Ghana: A Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modelling Approach

open access: yesTropical Medicine &International Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim This study examines the predictive power of constructs from the health belief model (HBM) and theory of planned behaviour (TPB) in explaining malaria vaccine acceptance in Ghana in the post‐COVID‐19 era, while also assessing the reliability of these constructs within this context.

Breadth and magnitude of antibody responses to multiple Plasmodium falciparum merozoite antigens are associated with protection from clinical malaria. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Individuals living in areas where malaria is endemic are repeatedly exposed to many different malaria parasite antigens. Studies on naturally acquired antibody-mediated immunity to clinical malaria have largely focused on the presence of responses to ...

An international study on emerging arboviral infections and blood safety

open access: yesTransfusion, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Emerging and re‐emerging arboviral infections are a risk to blood safety. We conducted an international survey on how blood establishments respond to current and future arbovirus threats. Study Design and Methods A questionnaire on arbovirus donor deferral strategies, pathogen reduction, and donation screening was distributed to ...

Advances in transmission-blocking vaccines against Plasmodium falciparum and Plasmodium vivax

open access: yesExpert Review of Vaccines
Introduction The World Health Organization has recommended two pre-erythrocytic malaria vaccines targeting Plasmodium falciparum. However, there is currently no vaccine available for Plasmodium vivax, the second leading cause of malaria.
