Artificial intelligence‐powered microscopy: Transforming the landscape of parasitology
Abstract Microscopy and image analysis play a vital role in parasitology research; they are critical for identifying parasitic organisms and elucidating their complex life cycles. Despite major advancements in imaging and analysis, several challenges remain. These include the integration of interdisciplinary data; information derived from various model

Sex in Immune Cells and Parasitic Diseases — A Complex Relationship
ABSTRACT Epidemiological studies consistently show that many parasitic diseases affect males more frequently than females. These disparities are multifactorial, arising partly from gender‐specific behaviors that influence exposure risk and health‐seeking practices, especially in low‐ and middle‐income countries. Increasing evidence also highlights that

Immune Modulation by Plasmodium yoelii: Insights From Lethal and Non‐Lethal Strains
ABSTRACT Malaria pathogenesis is driven by intricate host–parasite interactions that determine immune balance and clinical outcome. The Plasmodium yoelii model, particularly its lethal (17XL) and non‐lethal (17XNL) strains, provides a robust framework to investigate these dynamics.

Malaria polymerase chain reaction (PCR) testing is more sensitive than conventional diagnostics. Routine PCR screening of at‐risk asymptomatic hematopoietic cell donors and transplant candidates may prevent unnecessary deferrals or treatment. In our experience, PCR negativity during screening or after treatment supports donor/candidate eligibility ...
