Coinfection with plasmodium falciparum and schistosoma haematobium: protective effect of schistosomiasis on malaria in senegalese children?
TL;DR: It was shown that children lightly infected with S. haematobium had lower P. falciparum densities than those not infected, suggesting a negative interaction between both parasites.
Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of the Timing of Malaria Infection during Pregnancy on Birth Weight and on Maternal Anemia in Benin
Bich-Tram Huynh,Nadine Fievet,Gildas Gbaguidi,Sébastien Dechavanne,Sophie Borgella,Blaise Guézo-Mévo,Achille Massougbodji,Nicaise Tuikue Ndam,Philippe Deloron,Michel Cot +9 more
TL;DR: To fully protect the women during the whole pregnancy, already implemented measures (insecticide-treated nets and intermittent preventive treatment) should be reinforced and a vaccine against pregnancy-associated malaria parasites could protect theWomen in early pregnancy, which seems to be a high-risk period.
Journal ArticleDOI
Submicroscopic Plasmodium falciparum Infections Are Associated With Maternal Anemia, Premature Births, and Low Birth Weight
Gilles Cottrell,Gilles Cottrell,Azizath Moussiliou,Azizath Moussiliou,Adrian J. F. Luty,Adrian J. F. Luty,Michel Cot,Michel Cot,Nadine Fievet,Nadine Fievet,Achille Massougbodji,Philippe Deloron,Philippe Deloron,Nicaise Tuikue Ndam,Nicaise Tuikue Ndam +14 more
TL;DR: The deleterious impact of submicroscopic P. falciparum parasitemia during pregnancy on multiple pregnancy outcomes is documented and imply caution in any revision of the current strategies for prevention of pregnancy-associated malaria.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: An open-label randomized controlled trial in HIV-negative pregnant women in Benin, Gabon, Mozambique, and Tanzania to evaluate the safety and efficacy of mefloquine compared to sulfadoxine-pyrimethamine for intermittent preventative therapy for malaria.

Experimental infections of Anopheles gambiae with Plasmodium falciparum of naturally infected gametocyte carriers in Cameroon: factors influencing the infectivity to mosquitoes.
T. Tchuinkam,Bert Mulder,K. Dechering,H. Stoffels,Jan Peter Verhave,Michel Cot,P. Carnevale,J.E.T.H. Meuwissen,Vincent Robert +8 more
TL;DR: Only gametocyte density was identified as a factor which determined the success and the level of mosquito infection in experimental infections of Anopheles gambiae with Plasmodium falciparum in Cameroon.
