Effects of Drug Resistance on the Global Spread of Malaria: A Systematic Literature Review

open access: yesHealth Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Malaria remains a major health crisis in tropical regions, with Sub‐Saharan Africa bearing the heaviest burden. While insecticide‐treated nets and artemisinin‐based combination therapies (ACTs) have reduced cases, emerging parasite resistance to artemisinin threatens these gains. This review synthesizes evidence on how drug
