Journal of Parasitology Research, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.Background. Natural medicinal products are commonly used as a remedy against malaria infections in African populations and have become a major source of information for the screening of new and more effective antiplasmodial molecules. Therefore, in vitro studies are needed to validate the efficacy of these medicinal products and to explore the ...

Multinomial logistic model for coinfection diagnosis between arbovirus and malaria in Kedougou [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 In tropical regions, populations continue to suffer morbidity and mortality from malaria and arboviral diseases. In Kedougou (Senegal), these illnesses are all endemic due to the climate and its geographical position. The co-circulation of malaria parasites and arboviruses can explain the observation of coinfected cases.

Optimal population-level infection detection strategies for malaria control and elimination in a spatial model of malaria transmission [PDF]
, 2015 Mass campaigns with antimalarial drugs are potentially a powerful tool for local elimination of malaria, yet current diagnostic technologies are insufficiently sensitive to identify all individuals who harbor infections. At the same time, overtreatment of uninfected individuals increases the risk of accelerating emergence of drug resistance and losing ...
