TL;DR: This data indicates that in West Africa, where the policy change process for the prevention of malaria during pregnancy started much later, IPTp has been taken up swiftly.
Journal ArticleDOI

Jayne Webster,Kassoum Kayentao,Kassoum Kayentao,Jane Bruce,Sory I. Diawara,Amadou Abathina,Alhassane Ag Haiballa,Ogobara K. Doumbo,Jenny Hill +8 more
TL;DR: The delivery of IPTp-SP was ineffective; whilst ITN delivery was effective if ITNs were in stock and stock-outs were a problem in Segou District.
Journal ArticleDOI
Plasmodium falciparum Gametocyte-Specific Antibody Profiling Reveals Boosting through Natural Infection and Identifies Potential Markers of Gametocyte Exposure
Jeff Skinner,Chiung Yu Huang,Michael Waisberg,Philip L. Felgner,Ogobara K. Doumbo,Aissata Ongoiba,Kassoum Kayentao,Boubacar Traore,Peter D. Crompton,Kim C. Williamson,Kim C. Williamson +10 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that TBV-induced immunity would be boosted through natural gametocyte exposure, and that antibody responses to particular antigens may reliably indicate gametocytes exposure.
Journal ArticleDOI
A comparison of anemia in hemoglobin C and normal hemoglobin A children with Plasmodium falciparum malaria
Dapa A. Diallo,Ogobara K. Doumbo,Alassane Dicko,Aldiouma Guindo,Drissa Coulibaly,Kassoum Kayentao,Abdoulaye Djimde,Mahamadou A. Thera,Rick M. Fairhurst,Christopher V. Plowe,Thomas E. Wellems +10 more
TL;DR: HbC, a malaria-protective polymorphism with few deleterious consequences, does not appear to be associated with more frequent anemia than normal HbA in episodes of uncomplicated P. falciparum malaria.
Journal ArticleDOI
Atypical B cells up-regulate costimulatory molecules during malaria and secrete antibodies with T follicular helper cell support
Christine S. Hopp,Jeff Skinner,Sarah L. Anzick,Christopher M. Tipton,Mary E. Peterson,Shanping Li,Safiatou Doumbo,Kassoum Kayentao,Aissata Ongoiba,Craig Martens,Boubacar Traore,Peter D. Crompton +11 more
TL;DR: It is shown that atypical B cells actively respond to acute malaria and have the capacity to produce antibodies with T cell help, suggesting that atBCs respond to T follicular helper (TFH) cells.
