Parasitic Infections and Associated Cognitive Outcome Among School‐Aged Children in Africa: A Systematic Review

open access: yesBrain and Behavior, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
Parasitic infections like schistosomiasis, soil‐transmitted helminths, and malaria can impair nutrient absorption, oxygen supply, and brain function, leading to memory deficits, attention deficits, reduced intelligence quotient, weak academic performance, and motor or executive deficits.

Complete Dialysis‐Free Recovery From Severe Malaria–Associated Acute Kidney Injury and Multiorgan Failure: A Case Report and Brief Literature Review

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Severe malaria remains a major cause of acute kidney injury and multiorgan failure in endemic regions, often requiring renal replacement therapy. However, access to dialysis is limited in many resource‐constrained settings, making outcomes highly dependent on early diagnosis and effective antimalarial treatment. We report a 32‐year‐old man who

Development of PCR–RFLP assay for the discrimination of Plasmodium species and variants of P. vivax (VK210, VK247 and P. vivax-like) in Anopheles mosquitoes

open access: yesActa Tropica, 2011
The identification of Plasmodium species in Anopheles mosquitoes is an integral component of malaria control programs. We developed a new assay to identify Plasmodium falciparum, Plasmodium malariae, and Plasmodium vivax variants. Specific primers were designed to hybridize to CS gene-specific regions.

Evaluation of the Diagnostic Accuracy of the Quantitative Point‐of‐Care SD Biosensor Standard G6PD Test for Assessment of G6PD Deficiency in Infectious Diseases

open access: yesInternational Journal of Laboratory Hematology, Volume 48, Issue 2, Page 440-446, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Background G6PD deficiency affects about 500 million people worldwide and is prevalent in many malaria‐endemic settings. People with G6PD deficiency are at risk of hemolysis when exposed to certain medications, including 8‐aminoquinoline drugs used to treat Plasmodium vivax malaria.
