Short‐Course Low‐Dose Primaquine for Radical Cure in G6PD‐Normal Patients in the Pre‐Elimination Context of Nepal

Tropical Medicine &International Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Plasmodium vivax remains a challenge for malaria elimination in Nepal due to its ability to relapse. Radical cure with primaquine is effective but limited by poor adherence to the standard 14‐day low‐dose regimen. In 2022, the WHO recommended administering the same total dose (3.5 mg/kg) over 7 days to improve adherence.

Korat‐Scrub Typhus Score: A Clinical Tool for Predicting Scrub Typhus in Patients With Acute Undifferentiated Febrile Illness

Tropical Medicine &International Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Scrub typhus is a major cause of acute undifferentiated febrile illness (AUFI) in the Asia–Pacific region. Nonspecific presentation, limited diagnostic accuracy and delayed treatment increase morbidity and mortality. This study aimed to develop a simple clinical score for early diagnosis in adults with AUFI. Methods A cross‐sectional
