Plasmodium malariae in Haitian Refugees, Jamaica [PDF]
Since 1963, reported malaria transmission in Haiti has been restricted to Plasmodium falciparum. However, screening of Haitian refugees in Jamaica in 2004, by microscopic examination, identified P. falciparum, P. vivax, and P. malariae. PCR confirmed the

Plasmodium malariae Infection Associated with a High Burden of Anemia: A Hospital-Based Surveillance Study. [PDF]
BACKGROUND:Plasmodium malariae is a slow-growing parasite with a wide geographic distribution. Although generally regarded as a benign cause of malaria, it has been associated with nephrotic syndrome, particularly in young children, and can persist in ...

Diagnostic performance of a 5-plex malaria immunoassay in regions co-endemic for Plasmodium falciparum, P. vivax, P. knowlesi, P. malariae and P. ovale. [PDF]
AbstractCommercial point-of-care tests remain insufficient for accurately detecting and differentiating low-level malaria infections in regions co-endemic with multiple non-falciparum species, including zoonotic Plasmodium knowlesi (Pk). A 5-plex chemiluminescent assay simultaneously measures pan-Plasmodium lactate dehydrogenase (pLDH), P.

Clinical recrudescence of chronic untreated P. malariae infection after BNT162b2 CoVID-19 vaccine. [PDF]
We described a case of clinical reactivation of chronic P. malariae infection following CoVID-19 vaccination with BNT162b2 (Pifzer-Biontech CoVID-19 vaccine) in a 48-year old Italian man.The patient came to our attention for fever of unknown origin show ...

Genome-wide microsatellite characteristics of five human Plasmodium species, focusing on Plasmodium malariae and P. ovale curtisi [PDF]
Microsatellites can be utilized to explore genotypes, population structure, and other genomic features of eukaryotes. Systematic characterization of microsatellites has not been a focus for several species of Plasmodium, including P.

Strong Cross-Reactivity of Anti-Plasmodium falciparum pLDH Monoclonal Antibodies With Plasmodium malariae pLDH in the Abbott Bioline Malaria Ag P.f/P.f/P.v Rapid Diagnostic Test. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Objectives This study aimed to describe the crossâreactivity of the Abbott Bioline Malaria Ag P.f/P.f/P.v rapid diagnostic test, designed to detect Plasmodium falciparum and P. vivax , with other Plasmodium species, based on the detection of parasite lactate dehydrogenase enzymes.

Genetic analysis of the orthologous crt and mdr1 genes in Plasmodium malariae from Thailand and Myanmar [PDF]
Background Plasmodium malariae is a widely spread but neglected human malaria parasite, which causes chronic infections. Studies on genetic polymorphisms of anti-malarial drug target genes in P. malariae are limited.
