Prevalence of non-Plasmodium falciparum species in southern districts of Brazzaville in The Republic of the Congo

Parasites & Vectors, 2022
Background Although Plasmodium falciparum infection is largely documented and this parasite is the main target for malaria eradication, other Plasmodium species persist, and these require more attention in Africa.

Genetic diversity of three surface protein genes in Plasmodium malariae from three Asian countries

Malaria Journal, 2018
Background Genetic diversity of the three important antigenic proteins, namely thrombospondin-related anonymous protein (TRAP), apical membrane antigen 1 (AMA1), and 6-cysteine protein (P48/45), all of which are found in various developmental stages of ...

Anaemia of Plasmodium falciparum malaria

Baillière's Clinical Haematology, 1992
The pathophysiology of the anaemia of falciparum malaria is both complex and multifactorial, and results in a condition which is a major cause of mortality and morbidity in patients, especially children and pregnant women, living in malarial endemic areas.

Validation of Health Belief Model and Theory of Planned Behaviour Constructs for Predicting Malaria Vaccine Acceptance in Ghana: A Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modelling Approach

Tropical Medicine &International Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim This study examines the predictive power of constructs from the health belief model (HBM) and theory of planned behaviour (TPB) in explaining malaria vaccine acceptance in Ghana in the post‐COVID‐19 era, while also assessing the reliability of these constructs within this context.

Plasmodium malariae in Haitian Refugees, Jamaica

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2007
Since 1963, reported malaria transmission in Haiti has been restricted to Plasmodium falciparum. However, screening of Haitian refugees in Jamaica in 2004, by microscopic examination, identified P. falciparum, P. vivax, and P. malariae. PCR confirmed the

Pyronaridine for treatment of Plasmodium ovale and Plasmodium malariae infections [PDF]

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 1997
The clinical efficacy of oral pyronaridine was assessed in 22 symptomatic Cameroonian patients infected with Plasmodium ovale or Plasmodium malariae. All patients were cured on or before day 4. In vitro drug assays confirmed the sensitivity of P. ovale and P. malariae isolates to chloroquine and pyronaridine.

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 ...

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.

Submicroscopic placental infection by non-falciparum Plasmodium spp.

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2018
BackgroundAmong the Plasmodium species that infect humans, adverse effects of P. falciparum and P. vivax have been extensively studied and reported with respect to poor outcomes particularly in first time mothers and in pregnant women living in areas ...
