Applied genomics: data mining reveals species-specific malaria diagnostic targets more sensitive than 18S rRNA. [PDF]

, 2011
Accurate and rapid diagnosis of malaria infections is crucial for implementing species-appropriate treatment and saving lives. Molecular diagnostic tools are the most accurate and sensitive method of detecting Plasmodium, differentiating between ...

Tracing the origins of Plasmodium vivax resurgence after malaria elimination on Aneityum Island in Vanuatu

Communications Medicine
Background Five years after successful malaria elimination, Aneityum Island in Vanuatu experienced an outbreak of Plasmodium vivax of unknown origin in 2002. Epidemiological investigations revealed several potential sources of P. vivax.

Parasite biomass-related inflammation, endothelial activation, microvascular dysfunction and disease severity in vivax malaria.

PLoS Pathogens, 2015
Plasmodium vivax can cause severe malaria, however its pathogenesis is poorly understood. In contrast to P. falciparum, circulating vivax parasitemia is low, with minimal apparent sequestration in endothelium-lined microvasculature, and pathogenesis ...

Understanding the population genetics of Plasmodium vivax is essential for malaria control and elimination

Malaria Journal, 2012
Traditionally, infection with Plasmodium vivax was thought to be benign and self-limiting, however, recent evidence has demonstrated that infection with P. vivax can also result in severe illness and death. Research into P.

Relapses of Plasmodium vivax infection usually result from activation of heterologous hypnozoites. [PDF]

, 2007
BACKGROUND: Relapses originating from hypnozoites are characteristic of Plasmodium vivax infections. Thus, reappearance of parasitemia after treatment can result from relapse, recrudescence, or reinfection.

Mixed malarial infection due to Plasmodium falciparum and P vivax.

BMJ, 1985
Meteorological factors play a crucial role in malaria transmission, but limited evidence is available from China. This study aimed to estimate the weekly associations between meteorological factors and Plasmodium vivax and Plasmodium falciparum malaria in China.

Asymptomatic P. falciparum and P. vivax infections: epidemiology and infectivity to mosquitoes

, 2019
The majority of Plasmodium vivax and Plasmodium falciparum infections in low-endemic settings are asymptomatic. Cross sectional studies indicated that these infections have non-negligible contribution to the infectious reservoir that varies between settings.
