Anti-Inflammatory Cytokines Predominate in Acute Human Plasmodium knowlesi Infections. [PDF]

, 2011
Plasmodium knowlesi has entered the human population of Southeast Asia. Naturally acquired knowlesi malaria is newly described with relatively little available data, including data on the host response to infection.

Plasmodium vivax trophozoites insensitive to chloroquine [PDF]

Malaria 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.

Short‐Course Low‐Dose Primaquine for Radical Cure in G6PD‐Normal Patients in the Pre‐Elimination Context of Nepal

Tropical Medicine &International Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Plasmodium vivax remains a challenge for malaria elimination in Nepal due to its ability to relapse. Radical cure with primaquine is effective but limited by poor adherence to the standard 14‐day low‐dose regimen. In 2022, the WHO recommended administering the same total dose (3.5 mg/kg) over 7 days to improve adherence.

Applied genomics: data mining reveals species-specific malaria diagnostic targets more sensitive than 18S rRNA. [PDF]

, 2011
Accurate and rapid diagnosis of malaria infections is crucial for implementing species-appropriate treatment and saving lives. Molecular diagnostic tools are the most accurate and sensitive method of detecting Plasmodium, differentiating between ...

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.

PLASMODIUM VIVAX BLOOD-STAGE DYNAMICS [PDF]

Journal of Parasitology, 2002
We examine the dynamics of parasitemia and gametocytemia reflected in the preintervention charts of 221 malaria-naive U.S. neurosyphilis patients infected with the St. Elizabeth strain of Plasmodium vivax, for malariatherapy, focusing on the 109 charts for which 15 or more days of patency preceded intervention and daily records encompassed an average ...

Measuring ex vivo drug susceptibility in Plasmodium vivax isolates from Cambodia

Malaria Journal, 2017
Background While intensive Plasmodium falciparum multidrug resistance surveillance continues in Cambodia, relatively little is known about Plasmodium vivax drug resistance in Cambodia or elsewhere. To investigate P.

Transfusion‐transmitted malaria in India: A national survey of epidemiology and testing practices

Vox Sanguinis, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Objectives Malaria still poses a public health burden in India despite ongoing elimination efforts. Blood donor screening for malaria is mandated in India, yet data on transfusion‐transmitted malaria (TTM) are lacking. We sought to evaluate testing practices for malaria, associated rates of positivity in donors and reported ...
