TL;DR: This study shows an association between the pfcrt T76 mutation in P. falciparum and the development of chloroquine resistance during the treatment of malaria, and this mutation can be used as a marker in surveillance forchloroquine-resistant falcIParum malaria.
Journal ArticleDOI
A prospective analysis of the Ab response to Plasmodium falciparum before and after a malaria season by protein microarray.

Molina,Chad Burk,Michael Waisberg,Algis Jasinskas,Xiaolin Tan,Safiatou Doumbo,Didier Doumtabe,Younoussou Kone,David L. Narum,Xiaowu Liang,Ogobara K. Doumbo,Louis H. Miller,Denise L. Doolan,Pierre Baldi,Philip L. Felgner,Susan K. Pierce +21 more
TL;DR: A protein microarray was developed and used to probe plasma from 220 individuals in Mali and provided insight into patterns of Ab reactivity against Pf proteins based on the life cycle stage at which proteins are expressed, subcellular location, and other proteomic features, which could prove to be a useful strategy for better understanding fundamental properties of the human immune response to Pf.
Journal ArticleDOI
Atypical memory B cells are greatly expanded in individuals living in a malaria-endemic area
Greta E Weiss,Peter D. Crompton,Shanping Li,Laura A. Walsh,Susan Moir,Boubacar Traore,Kassoum Kayentao,Aissata Ongoiba,Ogobara K. Doumbo,Susan K. Pierce +9 more
TL;DR: Evidence is provided that a phenotypically similar atypical MBC population is significantly expanded in Pf-exposed Malian adults and children as young as 2 years of age as compared with healthy U.S. adult controls.
Journal ArticleDOI
Intermittent preventive therapy for malaria during pregnancy using 2 vs 3 or more doses of sulfadoxine-pyrimethamine and risk of low birth weight in Africa: systematic review and meta-analysis.

TL;DR: Support for the new WHO recommendations to provide at least 3 doses of intermittent preventive therapy during pregnancy at each scheduled antenatal care visit in the second and third trimester is provided.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: An assay to quantify rare polymorphisms in parasite populations that uses a pooled deep-sequencing approach to score allele frequencies is developed and validated by evaluating mixtures of laboratory parasite strains, and used to screen P. falciparum parasites from >1100 African infections collected since 2002.
