ABSTRACT Malaria‐associated secondary HLH, though rare, is often overlooked. Clinicians should maintain a high‐index of suspicion in travelers returning from malaria‐endemic regions who develop severe to rapidly worsening inflammatory illness, as early recognition is critical for survival.

Plasmodium vivax trophozoites insensitive to chloroquine [PDF]
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.

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.

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

Significant geographical differences in prevalence of mutations associated with Plasmodium falciparum and Plasmodium vivax drug resistance in two regions from Papua New Guinea [PDF]
Drug resistance remains a major obstacle to malaria treatment and control. It can arise and spread rapidly, and vary substantially even at sub-national level.

A structure‐informed, fragment‐based approach was used to identify non‐peptidomimetic inhibitors of plasmepsin V. Pyrrolidine, piperidine, and piperazine containing fragments showed activity in a FRET assay. The optimization of the pyrrolidine scaffold resulted in N‐sulfonamide analogs with potency up to ~10 µM, establishing a promising scaffold for ...

Is zoonotic Plasmodium vivax malaria an obstacle for disease elimination?
Background The groundwork for malaria elimination does not currently consider the potential of Plasmodium zoonotic cycles that involve non-human primates (NHPs) in sylvatic environments. Since vivax malaria is less responsive to control measures, finding

ABSTRACT A 35‐year‐old female presented with 5 days of fever, fatigue, and myalgia during the post‐monsoon season at Damak Hospital, Jhapa, Nepal. Clinical examination revealed fever (102.7°F), tachycardia (110 bpm), and crackles in the right lower lung field.

Naturally acquired immune responses to P. vivax merozoite surface protein 3α and merozoite surface protein 9 are associated with reduced risk of P. vivax malaria in young Papua New Guinean children [PDF]
Plasmodium vivax is the most geographically widespread human malaria parasite. Cohort studies in Papua New Guinea have identified a rapid onset of immunity against vivax-malaria in children living in highly endemic areas. Although numerous P.

Plasmodium vivax treatments [PDF]
For over 50 years, the treatment of Plasmodium vivax has relied on a combination of chloroquine and primaquine, but this strategy is under threat. Chloroquine efficacy is now compromised across much of the vivax endemic world and there are significant operational difficulties in deploying primaquine. We review the recent advances in P.
