Challenges to Malaria Elimination in Ethiopia by 2030: A Review

Journal of Tropical Medicine, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Malaria disease is a major health issue in Ethiopia, affecting three‐fourths of the country’s land area and more than two‐thirds of the population living below 2000 m altitude. Over 42 Anopheles species have been identified in the country, but Anopheles arabiensis was the only major malaria vector, accounting for the majority of illness and mortality ...

Evaluating the Antiplasmodial Activity of Picrasma javanica Stem Bark Extract and Its Synergy With Artesunate in Rodent Malaria Models

Scientifica, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Malaria remains a global health challenge, exacerbated by the emergence of drug‐resistant Plasmodium strains. This study evaluates the antimalarial activity of Picrasma javanica stem bark extract and its combination with artesunate (ART) in Plasmodium berghei–infected mice. The extraction yield using hexane at a 1:5 (w/v) ratio was 7.8% w/w.
