Persistent Immune Thrombocytopenia as a Post‐Acute Sequelae of COVID‐19: A Case Report

Public Health Challenges, Volume 5, Issue 4, December 2026.
ABSTRACT Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is a recognized hematologic complication associated with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19), but its persistence years after acute infection remains uncommon. We present a case of a 52‐year‐old male who was diagnosed with COVID‐19 in June 2020. Following recovery from the acute illness, he had persistent fatigue,

Validation of a Semiquantitative Real-Time PCR Assay for Malaria Diagnosis and Treatment Monitoring

The Journal of Molecular Diagnostics
Microscopic examination of blood smears is the current gold standard for laboratory confirmation of malaria. However, it is time-consuming and lacks sensitivity while requiring highly skilled laboratory professionals. This study validated a multiplex real-time PCR test for the detection, speciation, and semiquantification of Plasmodium species in whole

Comparison of different methods for delayed post-mortem diagnosis of falciparum malaria

Malaria Journal, 2009
Background Between 10,000 and 12,000 cases of imported malaria are notified in the European Union each year. Despite an excellent health care system, fatalities do occur. In case of advanced autolysis, the post-mortem diagnostic is impaired.

Severe Plasmodium vivax Malaria Presenting With Circulatory Shock and Coagulation Abnormalities: A Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 11, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Severe Plasmodium vivax malaria may cause vasopressor‐requiring shock, profound thrombocytopenia, jaundice, coagulation activation, and transient cardiopulmonary abnormalities. Early parasite confirmation and close monitoring for evolving organ dysfunction are essential.

Remote Sensing for Operational Surveillance of Mosquito‐Borne Diseases

GeoHealth, Volume 10, Issue 11, November 2026.
Abstract Remote sensing observations have demonstrated increasing value in identifying human risk from mosquito‐borne diseases because mosquito ecology is intrinsically tied to geophysical variables measurable by satellites. Satellite‐based monitoring of environmental conditions at varying temporal and spatial scales has extended our capacity for ...
