Characterisation of Plasmodium vivax lactate dehydrogenase dynamics in P. vivax infections [PDF]

Communications Biology, 2023
Plasmodium vivax lactate dehydrogenase (PvLDH) is an essential enzyme in the glycolytic pathway of P. vivax. It is widely used as a diagnostic biomarker and a measure of total-body parasite biomass in vivax malaria. However, the dynamics of PvLDH remains

Unveiling P. vivax invasion pathways in Duffy-negative individuals [PDF]

Cell Host and Microbe, 2023
Se ha pensado durante mucho tiempo que la malaria Vivax está ausente en el África subsahariana debido a la alta proporción de individuos que carecen del receptor de antígeno Duffy para quimiocinas (DARC) en sus eritrocitos. Se supone que la interacción entre la proteína de unión a P.

Plasmodium vivax-like genome sequences shed new insights into Plasmodium vivax biology and evolution. [PDF]

PLoS Biology, 2018
Although Plasmodium vivax is responsible for the majority of malaria infections outside Africa, little is known about its evolution and pathway to humans. Its closest genetic relative, P.

Plasmodium vivax in the Era of the Shrinking P. falciparum Map

Trends in Parasitology, 2020
Plasmodium vivax es una causa importante de malaria, asociada con una importante carga de salud pública. Si bien las actividades mejoradas de control de la malaria han reducido con éxito la incidencia de la malaria por Plasmodium falciparum en muchas áreas, ha habido un aumento constante en la proporción de malaria debido a P.

Sensitive Detection of Plasmodium vivax Using a High-Throughput, Colourimetric Loop Mediated Isothermal Amplification (HtLAMP) Platform: A Potential Novel Tool for Malaria Elimination. [PDF]

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2016
IntroductionPlasmodium vivax malaria has a wide geographic distribution and poses challenges to malaria elimination that are likely to be greater than those of P. falciparum. Diagnostic tools for P.

Microsatellite Genotyping of Plasmodium vivax Isolates from Pregnant Women in Four Malaria Endemic Countries. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
Plasmodium vivax is the most widely distributed human parasite and the main cause of human malaria outside the African continent. However, the knowledge about the genetic variability of P. vivax is limited when compared to the information available for P.

Costs Associated with Malaria in Pregnancy in the Brazilian Amazon, a Low Endemic Area Where Plasmodium vivax Predominates. [PDF]

, 2016
BACKGROUND: Information on costs associated with malaria in pregnancy (MiP) in low transmission areas where Plasmodium vivax predominates is so far missing. This study estimates health system and patient costs of MiP in the Brazilian Amazon.

Thrombocytopenia in malaria and its diagnostic significance: A prospective study

Journal of Clinical and Scientific Research, 2023
Background: Thrombocytopenia is a common finding in malaria. Although a reliable diagnostic marker, prognostic implications could vary in the types of malaria.

Validation of micro-chip based PCR assays for diagnosis of both Plasmodium falciparum and Plasmodium vivax

Journal of Vector Borne Diseases, 2022
Background & objectives: Microscopy is considered as the gold standard for malaria diagnosis, however sub-microscopic infections can only be detected by Polymerase chain reaction, which demands high cost and elaborate laboratory setup. The Micro-chip PCR

Frequency of Thrombocytopenia in Malaria and its prognostic significance

Journal of University Medical & Dental College, 2023
BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVE: Thrombocytopenia is a common hematological manifestation of malaria, but locally there is limited data on the association of thrombocytopenia degree and malarial species in Pakistan.
