Journal ArticleDOI

Global burden of bacterial antimicrobial resistance in 2019: a systematic analysis

Christopher J L Murray, +174 more
- 01 Jan 2022 - 
TL;DR: This study provides the first comprehensive assessment of the global burden of AMR, as well as an evaluation of the availability of data, and estimates aggregated to the global and regional level.
Journal ArticleDOI

Spread of Artemisinin Resistance in Plasmodium falciparum Malaria

Elizabeth A. Ashley, +82 more
TL;DR: Prolonged courses of artemisinin-based combination therapies are currently efficacious in areas where standard 3-day treatments are failing, and the incidence of pretreatment and post-treatment gametocytemia was higher among patients with slow parasite clearance, suggesting greater potential for transmission.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic architecture of artemisinin-resistant Plasmodium falciparum.

TL;DR: Analysis of the fine structure of the parasite population showed that the fd, arps10, mdr2 and crt polymorphisms are markers of a genetic background on which kelch13 mutations are particularly likely to arise and that they correlate with the contemporary geographical boundaries and population frequencies of artemisinin resistance.
Journal ArticleDOI

Artemether-lumefantrine treatment of uncomplicated Plasmodium falciparum malaria: a systematic review and meta-analysis of day 7 lumefantrine concentrations and therapeutic response using individual patient data

Elizabeth A. Ashley, +51 more
- 18 Sep 2015 - 
TL;DR: Higher, more frequent, or prolonged dosage regimens should now be evaluated in very young children, particularly if malnourished, and in patients with hyperparasitemia, as well as patients in very low transmission intensity areas with emerging parasite resistance.
Journal ArticleDOI

Independent Emergence of Artemisinin Resistance Mutations Among Plasmodium falciparum in Southeast Asia

TL;DR: While there was some evidence of spreading resistance, there was no evidence of resistance moving westward from Cambodia into Myanmar, and K13 appears to be a major determinant of artemisinin resistance throughout Southeast Asia.
