Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic Selection of a Plasmodium-Refractory Strain of the Malaria Vector Anopheles gambiae

TL;DR: Production of fully refractory and fully susceptible mosquito strains was achieved through a short series of selective breeding steps, indicating a relatively simple genetic basis for refractoriness and encourages consideration of genetic manipulation of natural vector populations as a malaria control strategy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Beyond Chloroquine: Implications of Drug Resistance for Evaluating Malaria Therapy Efficacy and Treatment Policy in Africa

TL;DR: Treatment with chloroquine can no longer be considered adequately effective therapy of clinical P. falciparum malaria in very young children in these areas of Africa.
Journal ArticleDOI

Severe Cutaneous Reactions among American Travelers Using Pyrimethamine-Sulfadoxine (Fansidar®) for Malaria Prophylaxis

TL;DR: In the United States it is now recommended that the routine weekly use of the fixed combination of pyrimethamine and sulfadoxine (PYR/SDX) be reserved for those travelers at highest risk of acquiring chloroquine-resistant P. falciparum, when alternate prophylactic regimens are not deemed appropriate.
Journal ArticleDOI

Immunization of Aotus monkeys with recombinant proteins of an erythrocyte surface antigen of Plasmodium falciparum.

TL;DR: An immunization trial using Aotus monkeys and Escherichia coli-derived fused polypeptides corresponding to various regions of the RESA molecule protected against overwhelming infection, and protection correlated with antibody responses to either of two different repetitive sequences in RESA.
Journal ArticleDOI

In vivo efficacy of chloroquine treatment for Plasmodium falciparum in Malawian children under five years of age.

TL;DR: Considering these therapeutic results and the higher cost and limited availability of alternative therapies, chloroquine 25 mg/kg therapy was adopted as the primary therapy for malaria in Malawi.
