A case of imported Plasmodium malariae malaria.

Japanese Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1993
Imported malaria is one of the perplexing problems in the world. Migrants, either refugees or those looking for better opportunites in life, have contributed to the introduction of malaria to previously free areas. The increased incidence of imported malaria is distinctly attributed to a failure of travellers to take appropriate action to prevent ...

The Genesis of Malaria: The Origin of Mosquitoes and Their Protistan Cargo, Plasmodium falciparum [PDF]

, 2013
Malaria is caused by the parasite belonging to the genus Plasmodium; however, creation biologists maintain this organism was not always parasitic. Plasmodium is probably a degenerate form of algae.

Increased Plasmodium falciparum gametocyte production in mixed infections with P. malariae. [PDF]

, 2008
Plasmodium falciparum and P. malariae occur endemically in many parts of Africa. Observations from malariotherapy patients suggest that co-infection with P. malariae may increase P. falciparum gametocyte production. We determined P. falciparum gametocyte

Neglect of Plasmodium vivax malaria

Trends in Parasitology, 2007
Plasmodium vivax infects 130-435 million of the 2.6 billion people living at risk of infection. Recent studies suggest that vivax malaria can become lethal in a similar way to severe falciparum malaria. First-line therapies remain unchanged after 50 years.

Molecular Markers of Antimalarial Drug Resistance in Plasmodium falciparum From Kumasi, Ghana, 2023

Tropical Medicine &International Health, Volume 31, Issue 1, Page 43-48, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives Artemisinin partial resistance has emerged in East Africa and is feared to spread across the continent, potentially compromising artemisinin‐based combination treatment. Molecular markers can serve as early warning signals for the development of specific drug resistance.

Molecular Detection of Plasmodium malariae/Plasmodium brasilianum in Non-Human Primates in Captivity in Costa Rica.

PLoS ONE, 2017
One hundred and fifty-two blood samples of non-human primates of thirteen rescue centers in Costa Rica were analyzed to determine the presence of species of Plasmodium using thick blood smears, semi-nested multiplex polymerase chain reaction (SnM-PCR ...

Generative Augmentation and Temporal Feature Extraction With Deep Learning for Enhanced Malaria Stage Classification

Applied Computational Intelligence and Soft Computing, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Malaria is one of the most serious public health challenges that requires effective diagnostic methodologies in aid of its management and control. The work herein proposes a hybrid deep learning model that merges GANs with LSTMs to classify malaria parasites through imaging.
