Systematic review of sub-microscopic P. vivax infections: prevalence and determining factors.

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2015
BackgroundSub-microscopic (SM) Plasmodium infections represent transmission reservoirs that could jeopardise malaria elimination goals. A better understanding of the epidemiology of these infections and factors contributing to their occurrence will ...

Vivax malaria in Duffy-negative patients shows invariably low asexual parasitaemia: implication towards malaria control in Ethiopia

Malaria Journal, 2022
Background The increase in detections of Plasmodium vivax infection in Duffy-negative individuals in Africa has challenged the dogma establishing the unique P. vivax Duffy Binding Protein-Duffy antigen receptor for chemokines (PvDBP-DARC) pathway used by

Donor management implications for high‐sensitivity detection of low‐level malaria parasitemia in blood donor screening

Transfusion, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Transfusion‐transmitted malaria can occur when donors have unrecognized asymptomatic infection with submicroscopic parasitemia, highlighting the need to detect low‐level parasitemia in blood donor screening. However, these highly sensitive blood donor testing algorithms may refer donors to clinicians who use diagnostic algorithms ...

Comparative evaluation of the attractiveness of new polyethylene screens versus West African tiny target for the control of tsetse flies

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 40, Issue 3, Page 489-497, September 2026.
The material has no significant difference in captures (non‐shiny cotton‐polyester screens vs. the shiny polyethylene screens), but the vertical screen attracted significantly more G. tachinoides for each type of material. Full white horizontal screen was significantly lower than the reference WATT.

First characterization of Plasmodium vivax liver stage antigen (PvLSA) using synthetic peptides

Parasites & Vectors, 2014
Background Plasmodium vivax is the most widespread human malaria in tropical and subtropical countries, including the Republic of Korea. Vivax malaria is characterized by hypnozoite relapse and long latency infection by the retained liver stage of P ...

Deconstruction of Aspartic Protease Inhibitors Enables Fragment‐Based Discovery of Plasmepsin V Inhibitors

ChemMedChem, Volume 21, Issue 15, 14 August 2026.
A structure‐informed, fragment‐based approach was used to identify non‐peptidomimetic inhibitors of plasmepsin V. Pyrrolidine, piperidine, and piperazine containing fragments showed activity in a FRET assay. The optimization of the pyrrolidine scaffold resulted in N‐sulfonamide analogs with potency up to ~10 µM, establishing a promising scaffold for ...

Improving Malaria Parasite Gene Flow Inference Under Sparse Spatial Sampling

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 6, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Estimating malaria parasite migration is crucial for informing elimination strategies, particularly by identifying regions with higher parasite migration that may serve as transmission sources and intervention targets. Methods that infer spatial variations in gene flow from georeferenced genetic data, including Estimated Effective Migration ...

Vectors and Vector‐Borne Diseases: Biology, Epidemiology and Integrated Control Strategies

Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 150, Issue 7, Page 990-1015, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Vector‐Borne Diseases (VBDs), transmitted by arthropods such as mosquitoes, ticks, fleas and sandflies, represent a significant threat to global health. These diseases can be caused by a variety of pathogens, including bacteria, viruses, protozoa, and helminths.
