Avian malaria co-infections confound infectivity and vector competence assays of Plasmodium homopolare. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Currently, there are very few studies of avian malaria that investigate relationships among the host-vector-parasite triad concomitantly. In the current study, we experimentally measured the vector competence of several Culex mosquitoes for a newly ...

Geographical variation in Plasmodium vivax relapse [PDF]

open access: yesMalaria Journal, 2014
Plasmodium vivax has the widest geographic distribution of the human malaria parasites and nearly 2.5 billion people live at risk of infection. The control of P. vivax in individuals and populations is complicated by its ability to relapse weeks to months after initial infection. Strains of P.

Plasmodium vivax Malaria in Cambodia [PDF]

open access: yesThe American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2016
The Cambodian National Strategic Plan for Elimination of Malaria aims to move step by step toward elimination of malaria across Cambodia with an initial focus on Plasmodium falciparum malaria before achieving elimination of all forms of malaria, including Plasmodium vivax in 2025. The emergence of artemisinin-resistant P. falciparum in western Cambodia

Plasmodium malariae and P. ovale genomes provide insights into malaria parasite evolution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Elucidation of the evolutionary history and interrelatedness of Plasmodium species that infect humans has been hampered by a lack of genetic information for three human-infective species: P. malariae and two P. ovale species (P. o. curtisi and P.

A randomized open study to assess the efficacy and tolerability of dihydroartemisinin-piperaquine for the treatment of uncomplicated falciparum malaria in Cambodia. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
OBJECTIVES: To compare the efficacy and tolerability of dihydroartemisinin-piperaquine (DHA-PQP) with that of a 3-day regimen of mefloquine and artesunate (MAS3) for the treatment of uncomplicated falciparum malaria in Cambodia.

The genetic diversity of Plasmodium vivax: a review [PDF]

open access: yesMemórias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2007
The genetic diversity of Plasmodium vivax has been investigated in several malaria-endemic areas, including the Brazilian Amazon region, where this is currently the most prevalent species causing malaria in humans. This review summarizes current views on the use of molecular markers to examine P.

Knowlesi malaria in Vietnam [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The simian malaria parasite Plasmodium knowlesi is transmitted in the forests of Southeast Asia. Symptomatic zoonotic knowlesi malaria in humans is widespread in the region and is associated with a history of spending time in the jungle.

Plasmodium vivax trophozoites insensitive to chloroquine [PDF]

open access: yesMalaria Journal, 2008
AbstractBackgroundPlasmodium vivaxis a major cause of malaria and is still primarily treated with chloroquine. Chloroquine inhibits the polymerization of haem to inert haemozoin. Free haem monomers are thought to catalyze oxidative damage to thePlasmodiumspp. trophozoite, the stage when haemoglobin catabolism is maximal.
