Estimating medium- and long-term trends in malaria transmission by using serological markers of malaria exposure

TL;DR: This work compared the prevalence of IgG antibodies with three Plasmodium falciparum asexual stage antigens in individuals of all ages living at varying altitudes encompassing a range of transmission intensities from hyper- to hypoendemic in northeastern Tanzania, with alternative measures of transmission intensity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome-wide and fine-resolution association analysis of malaria in West Africa

Muminatou Jallow, +90 more
- 01 Jun 2009 - 
TL;DR: These findings provide proof of principle that fine-resolution multipoint imputation, based on population-specific sequencing data, can substantially boost authentic GWA signals and enable fine mapping of causal variants in African populations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Serology: a robust indicator of malaria transmission intensity?

TL;DR: The availability of well characterized malarial antigens allows us to test whether serological measurements provide a practical method for estimating transmission, and highlight the advantages and shortcomings ofserological measurements of malaria transmission.
Journal ArticleDOI

Long-lived antibody and B Cell memory responses to the human malaria parasites, Plasmodium falciparum and Plasmodium vivax.

TL;DR: Analysis of the longevity of both antibody and B cell memory responses to malaria antigens among individuals who were living in an area of extremely low malaria transmission in northern Thailand concludes that infrequent malaria infections are capable of inducing long-lived antibody and memory B cell responses.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dried blood spots as a source of anti-malarial antibodies for epidemiological studies

TL;DR: This study demonstrated the suitability of filter paper blood spots paper for collection of serum antibodies, and provided clear guidelines for the treatment and storage of filter papers which emphasize the importance of desiccation and minimisation of time spent at ambient temperatures.
