Rosette formation by Plasmodium vivax
Transactions of the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1995 In contrast to Plasmodium falciparum, infections with P. vivax are seldom fatal. Red blood cells containing mature forms of P. falciparum sequester in the microvasculature of vital organs, and adhere to vascular endothelium (cytoadherence) and to uninfected red cells (rosetting). Rosetting of P.

Malaria Journal, 2017 Background Plasmodium knowlesi, a simian malaria parasite, has become the main cause of malaria in Sarawak, Malaysian Borneo. Epidemiological data on malaria for Sarawak has been derived solely from hospitalized patients, and more accurate ...

A spatial multiscale mathematical model of Plasmodium vivax transmission [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 The epidemiological behavior of Plasmodium vivax malaria occurs across spatial scales including within-host, population, and metapopulation levels. On the within-host scale, P. vivax sporozoites inoculated in a host may form latent hypnozoites, the activation of which drives secondary infections and accounts for a large proportion of P.

Plasmodium vivax gametocytes and transmission
Parasitology International, 2022 Malaria elimination means cessation of parasite transmission. At present, the declining malaria incidence in many countries has made elimination a feasible goal. Transmission control has thus been placed at the center of the national malaria control programs.

Neglect of Plasmodium vivax malaria [PDF]
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.

Simple Molecular Methods for Early Detection of Chloroquine Drug Resistance in Plasmodium vivax and Plasmodium falciparum [PDF]
Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2016 Introduction: Malaria is a human disease of which causes high morbidity and mortality. In Plasmodium falciparum malaria, the resistance to antimalarial drugs, especially chloroquine (CQ) is one of the paramount factors contributing to the global ...

The origin and age of Plasmodium vivax [PDF]
Trends in Parasitology, 2006 The evolutionary history of Plasmodium vivax has recently been addressed in terms of its origin as a parasite of humans and the age of extant populations. The consensus is that P. vivax originated as a result of a host switch from a non-human primate to hominids and that the extant populations did not originate as recently as previously proposed. Here,

Hypnozoite dynamics for Plasmodium vivax malaria: the epidemiological effects of radical cure [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Malaria is a mosquito-borne disease with a devastating global impact. Plasmodium vivax is a major cause of human malaria beyond sub-Saharan Africa. Relapsing infections, driven by a reservoir of liver-stage parasites known as hypnozoites, present unique challenges for the control of P. vivax malaria.

GAMETOCYTEMIA IN PLASMODIUM VIVAX AND PLASMODIUM FALCIPARUM INFECTIONS [PDF]
Journal of Parasitology, 2006 Two expert research microscopists, each blinded to the other's reports, diagnosed single-species malaria infections in 2,141 adults presenting at outpatient malaria clinics in Tak Province, Thailand, and Iquitos, Peru, in May-August 1998, May-July 1999, and May-June 2001.

Complexity of malaria transmission dynamics in the Brazilian Atlantic Forest
Current Research in Parasitology and Vector-Borne Diseases, 2021 Plasmodium malariae and Plasmodium vivax are protozoan parasites that can cause malaria in humans. They are genetically indistinguishable from, respectively, Plasmodium brasilianum and Plasmodium simium, i.e.
