Sex in Immune Cells and Parasitic Diseases — A Complex Relationship

Immunological Reviews, Volume 337, Issue 1, January 2026.
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

Molecular epidemiology of residual Plasmodium vivax transmission in a paediatric cohort in Solomon Islands

Malaria Journal, 2019
Background Following the scale-up of intervention efforts, malaria burden has decreased dramatically in Solomon Islands (SI). Submicroscopic and asymptomatic Plasmodium vivax infections are now the major challenge for malaria elimination in this country.

Immune Modulation by Plasmodium yoelii: Insights From Lethal and Non‐Lethal Strains

Parasite Immunology, Volume 48, Issue 1, January 2026.
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.

A rare case of young stroke in 16 years old female with Plasmodium vivax malaria infection

Journal of Integrated Health Sciences, 2017
Malaria is the most important parasitic disease in the world, in terms of both prevalence and mortality. Infection rate is high due to raise of strains resistant to the antimalarial medicines & social factors.

A Rare Presentation of Babesia‐Associated Splenic Infarction in an Immunocompetent Young Male With Mild Parasitemia

Case Reports in Medicine, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Babesiosis is a vector‐borne protozoal disease primarily transmitted by the Ixodes scapularis tick, though it can also be transmitted through blood transfusions from infected donors. The illness can be asymptomatic or present with mild flu‐like symptoms.

Genetic Diversity of Plasmodium falciparum Merozoite Surface Protein 1 and 2 Genes and Their Allele Association With Malaria Severity, Seasons, and Sex in Bamenda, North West Cameroon

Canadian Journal of Infectious Diseases and Medical Microbiology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Although the number of yearly occurrences of malaria has significantly decreased in recent years, malaria remains one of the major public health issues in Cameroon. A deeper understanding of how the various alleles of the malaria parasite’s genes move in the field between the two sexes and between seasons, as well as knowledge of malaria parasite ...

Retinal Hemorrhages in Severe Non-cerebral Plasmodium vivax Malaria in an Adult [PDF]

Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2015
Malaria is the most important parasitic diseases of humans and one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in tropical countries. Earlier Plasmodium vivax was considered as a benign infection, but now it is recognized as a cause of severe ...

Tandem Mass Spectrometry and Bio‐Guided Isolation of Secondary Metabolites With Antiplasmodial Activity From Dalbergia miscolobium Bark

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 22, Issue 12, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Strategies have been employed to address antimalarial drug resistance, including the exploration of new therapeutic targets. In this study, the stem bark of Dalbergia miscolobium was investigated using in vitro assays against Plasmodium falciparum and pyruvate kinase II (PyrKII), an essential enzyme for parasite development.

Molecular identification of Plasmodium species responsible for malaria reveals Plasmodium vivax isolates in Duffy negative individuals from southwestern Nigeria

Malaria Journal, 2018
Background Malaria in Nigeria is principally due to Plasmodium falciparum and, to a lesser extent to Plasmodium malariae and Plasmodium ovale. Plasmodium vivax is thought to be absent in Nigeria in particular and sub-Saharan Africa in general, due to the
