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 ...

Age‑shifting in malaria incidence as a result of induced immunological deficit: a simulation study [PDF]
, 2015 Effective population-level interventions against Plasmodium falciparum malaria lead to age-shifts, delayed morbidity or rebounds in morbidity and mortality whenever they are deployed in ways that do not permanently interrupt transmission.
