A Near-Infrared "Matchbox Size" Spectrometer to Detect and Quantify Malaria Parasitemia.

Analytical Chemistry, 2021
New point-of-care diagnostic approaches for malaria that are sensitive to low parasitemia, easy to use in a field setting, and affordable are urgently required to meet the World Health Organization's objective of reducing malaria cases and related life ...

The silent threat: asymptomatic parasitemia and malaria transmission

Expert Review of Anti-infective Therapy, 2013
Scale-up of malaria control interventions has resulted in a substantial decline in global malaria morbidity and mortality. Despite this achievement, there is evidence that current interventions alone will not lead to malaria elimination in most malaria-endemic areas and additional strategies need to be considered.

The Parasitemia in Experimental Toxoplasmosis

Journal of Infectious Diseases, 1950
The discovery by Wolf et al1 in 1939 that Toxoplasma gondii is the etiological agent of a highly fatal disease of infants has led to the description of an increasingly large number of cases in recent years. While the majority of cases have been neonatal, characterized by hydrocephalus, cerebral calcifications, and chorioretinitis, a few adult cases ...

Cytokines and Malaria Parasitemia

Clinical Immunology, 2001
The balance between pro- and antiinflammatory cytokines may be important in malaria presentation and outcome. Malaria tends to be more severe in children than in adults, presumably because partial immunity develops with age. However, the full nature of, and age-related differences in, anti-malarial immunity are unknown.

Parasitemia in a neonatal bison calf

Veterinary Clinical Pathology, 2004
Abstract: A 3‐day old female bison calf (Bison bison) was presented in lateral recumbency to the Université de Montréal Veterinary Teaching Hospital. The animal was severely depressed and dehydrated (10%) and died a few hours after admission. Prior to death, blood samples were obtained for CBC, clinical chemistry, and serology tests.

Parasitemia and Survival in Mice Infected with Plasmodium berghei. Hybrids between Swiss (High Parasitemia) and STR (Low Parasitemia) Mice

The Journal of Parasitology, 1958
was a possibility that the abnormally high parasitemia observed in Swiss mice was a reflection of a Swiss-adapted parasite. The hypothesis was tested (Greenberg and Kendrick, 1957a) by passing the parasite serially through each of the strains of mice. There was no evidence that in any of these strains of mice there was an increase in parasitemia with ...

Late Parasitemia in Asymptomatic Acquired Toxoplasmosis

Annals of Internal Medicine, 1969
Abstract Late parasitemia occurred in two patients with asymptomatic acquired toxoplasmosis. In one patient parasitemia persisted, and toxoplasma was isolated from blood as late as 14 months after ...

Persistent Parasitemia after Acute Babesiosis

New England Journal of Medicine, 1998
Babesiosis, a zoonosis caused by the protozoan Babesia microti, is usually not treated when the symptoms are mild, because the parasitemia appears to be transient. However, the microscopical methods used to diagnose this infection are insensitive, and few infected people have been followed longitudinally.

Microscopic malaria parasitemia diagnosis and grading on benchmark datasets

Microscopy research and technique (Print), 2018
Malaria parasitemia diagnosis and grading is hard and still far from perfection. Inaccurate diagnosis and grading has caused tremendous deaths rate particularly in young children worldwide.

Simultaneous ATR-FTIR Based Determination of Malaria Parasitemia, Glucose and Urea in Whole Blood Dried onto a Glass Slide.

Analytical Chemistry, 2017
New diagnostic tools that can detect malaria parasites in conjunction with other diagnostic parameters are urgently required. In this study, Attenuated Total Reflection Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR) spectroscopy in combination with Partial Least ...
