Associations Between Climate‐Sensitive Nutrients, Clinical Malaria, and Anaemia Among Young Children in Rural Burkina Faso: An Analysis of Baseline Data From a Cluster‐Randomised Controlled Trial

open access: yesTropical Medicine &International Health, Volume 31, Issue 2, Page 181-189, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective Malaria and anaemia are significant public health challenges among young children in Burkina Faso, with complex interactions between climate variability, food security, and nutrient deficiencies. This study aimed to identify the malariometric profile and nutrient patterns among young children and to determine the associations of ...

Nutritional status in young children prior to the malaria transmission season in Burkina Faso and Mali, and its impact on the incidence of clinical malaria

open access: yesMalaria Journal, 2021
Background Malaria and malnutrition remain major problems in Sahel countries, especially in young children. The direct effect of malnutrition on malaria remains poorly understood, and may have important implications for malaria control.

Micronutrient Powders Combined With Malaria Chemoprevention to Improve Anaemia and Cognitive Function in Early Childhood in Mali: A Cluster‐Randomised Trial

open access: yesMaternal &Child Nutrition, Volume 21, Issue 4, October 2025.
Globally nearly 40% of children under 5 years old are anaemic, which affects their ability to grow and develop. A cluster randomised trial was conducted in 60 communities in Southern Mali to evaluate the added impact of home fortification with micronutrient powders, delivered alongside seasonal malaria chemoprevention, on anaemia, malaria infection ...

Cost-effectiveness of seasonal malaria chemoprevention in upper west region of Ghana [PDF]

open access: yesMalaria Journal, 2016
In Ghana, malaria is endemic and perennial (with significant seasonal variations in the three Northern Regions), accounting for 33 % of all deaths among children under 5 years old, with prevalence rates in children under-five ranging from 11 % in Greater Accra to 40 % in Northern Region.

Age‑shifting in malaria incidence as a result of induced immunological deficit: a simulation study [PDF]

open access: yes, 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.

Opportunities and Challenges of Population Pharmacogenomics

open access: yesAnnals of Human Genetics, Volume 89, Issue 5, Page 384-397, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Pharmacological responses can vary significantly among patients from different ethnogeographic backgrounds. This variability can, at least in part, be attributed to population‐specific genetic patterns in genes involved in drug absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion, as well as in genes associated with drug‐induced toxicity ...

Facilitators and barriers to seasonal malaria chemoprevention (SMC) uptake in Nigeria: a qualitative approach

open access: yesMalaria Journal, 2023
Abstract Background SMC was adopted in Nigeria in 2014 and by 2021 was being implemented in 18 states, over four months between June and October by 143000 community drug distributors (CDDs) to a target population of 23million children. Further expansion of SMC is planned, extending to 21 states

Effectiveness of seasonal malaria chemoprevention in three regions of Togo: a population-based longitudinal study from 2013 to 2020

open access: yesMalaria Journal, 2022
Background In 2012, the World Health Organization (WHO) recommended seasonal malaria chemoprevention (SMC) in areas of high seasonal transmission. Though implemented since 2013, the effectiveness of SMC in Togo was never evaluated.
