Guillain–Barré Syndrome After Malaria: A Case Report of a 7‐Year‐Old Child With Asymmetric Onset of Acute Motor Axonal Neuropathy

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT This case highlights that acute motor axonal neuropathy can present with asymmetric, relapsing weakness in children. In malaria‐endemic and resource‐limited settings, clinicians should consider atypical Guillain–Barré variants early, as timely recognition and treatment can significantly improve outcomes despite diagnostic and systemic ...

Epidemiology of Plasmodium vivax Malaria in India [PDF]

The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2016
Historically, malaria in India was predominantly caused by Plasmodium vivax, accounting for 53% of the estimated cases. After the spread of drug-resistant Plasmodium falciparum in the 1990s, the prevalence of the two species remained equivalent at the national level for a decade. By 2014, the proportion of P.

Plasmodium vivax malaria presenting with severe thrombocytopenia

Brazilian Journal of Infectious Diseases
Plasmodium falciparum and Plasmodium vivax malaria are endemic infections in India and are commonly associated with mild hematological abnormalities. Severe thrombocytopenia is common in isolated falciparum and mixed falciparum/vivax malaria, but is very

Cost-effectiveness of malaria diagnosis using rapid diagnostic tests compared to microscopy or clinical symptoms alone in Afghanistan [PDF]

, 2015
Background Improving access to parasitological diagnosis of malaria is a central strategy for control and elimination of the disease. Malaria rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs) are relatively easy to perform and could be used in primary level clinics to ...

Evolution of Resistance to Avian Malaria Infection in an Endemic Hawaiian Honeycreeper

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
Hawaiian honeycreepers, a group of endemic song birds, represent one of the most stunning examples of an adaptive radiation. An evolutionary history devoid of malaria‐causing parasites has made them incredibly susceptible to disease. This work sought to identify genomic correlates of avian malaria infection.

Effects of Plasmodium vivax malaria in pregnancy

The Lancet, 1999
Plasmodium vivax is more common than P. falciparum as a cause of malaria in many parts of the tropics outside Africa. P. falciparum infection has harmful effects in pregnancy, but the effects of P. vivax have not been characterised. We investigated the effects of P.

Unusual Presentation of Vivax Malaria with Anaemia, Thrombocytopenia, Jaundice, Renal Disturbance, and Melena: A Report from Malang, a Nonendemic Area in Indonesia

Case Reports in Infectious Diseases, 2013
Most of the complications of malaria such as anaemia, thrombocytopenia, jaundice, and renal failure are commonly found in Plasmodium falciparum malaria, but the incidence of severe and complicated vivax malaria tends to be increasing. We report two cases

Severe and benign Plasmodium vivax malaria in Emberá (Amerindian) children and adolescents from an endemic municipality in Western Colombia

Journal of Infection and Public Health, 2016
Summary: Malaria in children is still an important public health problem in endemic areas of South-East Asia and Latin America. Certain forms of the disease, such as Plasmodium vivax severe malaria, are still neglected.

Estimating the numbers of malaria infections in blood samples using high-resolution genotyping data [PDF]

, 2012
People living in endemic areas often habour several malaria infections at once. High-resolution genotyping can distinguish between infections by detecting the presence of different alleles at a polymorphic locus.
