Platelet-Induced Clumping of Plasmodium falciparum–Infected Erythrocytes from Malawian Patients with Cerebral Malaria—Possible Modulation In Vivo by Thrombocytopenia [PDF]
Platelets may play a role in the pathogenesis of human cerebral malaria (CM), and they have been shown to induce clumping of Plasmodium falciparum–parasitized red blood cells (PRBCs) in vitro.

This study investigates the potential of enhancing the resistance of Glossina palpalis gambiensis to Trypanosoma brucei gambiense to mitigate the transmission of Human African Trypanosomiasis. We successfully cloned genes encoding proteins of interest in Sodalis strains, resulting in recombinant Sodalis (recSodalis) that were micro‐injected into the L3

The Diagnostic Performance of a Sysmex XN‐31 Automated Malaria Analyzer vs. Expert Microscopy
ABSTRACT Introduction Malaria is a common and life‐threatening infection. Malaria diagnosis needs to be fast and reliable. Although malaria microscopy is currently the gold standard, it is laborious, requires extensive training, and relies heavily on the proficiency of microscopists.

Background Early diagnosis of reactivated Chagas disease in HIV patients could be lifesaving. In Latin America, the diagnosis is made by microscopical detection of the T. cruzi parasite in the blood; a diagnostic test that lacks sensitivity.

High Incidence of Severe Parasitemia in Falciparum Malaria [PDF]
Dear Editor, In response to the communication by Lt Col D Rosha et al [1], I would like to put on record our experiences with falciparum malaria in an Air Force station situated in a semi-hilly, densely forested, tribal, highly malarious belt in Central India. Meterological and topographical features in this belt ensure heavy transmission of malaria

Maternal Malaria and Gravidity Interact to Modify Infant Susceptibility to Malaria. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: In endemic areas, placental malaria due to Plasmodium falciparum is most frequent and severe in first-time mothers, and increases the risk of infant mortality in their offspring. Placental malaria may increase the susceptibility of infants to
