Urbanization and Vector Species Shape Avian Malaria Prevalence in Mosquitoes

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Avian malaria prevalence was assessed in two mosquito species across urban and peri‐urban habitats. No infections were detected in either species in urban areas, while a 2.53% prevalence was found in the native Culex pipiens from peri‐urban sites, highlighting the influence of urbanization on parasite transmission dynamics.

Sympatric Plasmodium falciparum isolates from Venezuela have structured var gene repertoires. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
BACKGROUND: The human malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum expresses adhesins belonging to the erythrocyte membrane protein 1 (PfEMP1) family on the surface of the infected host erythrocyte.

Parasites at the Summit: Unexpected Geographic Distribution of the Blood Parasite Lineage Found in the Endangered Giant Lizard of Tenerife

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We combined microscopic screening and molecular phylogenetic analyses to characterize blood parasites infecting Gallotia intermedia from the coastal cliffs of Montaña de Guaza and to place these infections in a broader biogeographic context. We detected apicomplexan parasites of the genus Karyolysus infecting 53.6% of G.

A Global Perspective of Childhood Vaccinations: Past, Present, and Future—From Smallpox to mRNA

open access: yesActa Paediatrica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Childhood immunisation is one of the most successful public health interventions in history, preventing millions of deaths and substantially reducing global child mortality. This mini‐review summarises the historical development of childhood vaccines, the role of global coordination in expanding immunisation coverage, and the innovations that ...

Seasonal carriage of pfcrt and pfmdr1 alleles in Gambian Plasmodium falciparum imply reduced fitness of chloroquine-resistant parasites. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
BACKGROUND: Observations in natural Plasmodium falciparum populations after removal of failing drugs suggest that there is a fitness cost of drug resistance.
