Journal ArticleDOI
Intestinal helminth infections are associated with increased incidence of plasmodium falciparum malaria in thailand
Mathieu Nacher,Pratap Singhasivanon,Surapon Yimsamran,W. Manibunyong,Nipon Thanyavanich,P. Wuthisen,Sornchai Looareesuwan +6 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that a helminth-mediated Th2 shift may have complex consequences on malaria, decreasing antisporozoite immunity, but protecting against severe malaria.
Journal ArticleDOI
Optimally timing primaquine treatment to reduce Plasmodium falciparum transmission in low endemicity Thai-Myanmar border populations
Saranath Lawpoolsri,Saranath Lawpoolsri,Eili Y. Klein,Pratap Singhasivanon,Surapon Yimsamran,Nipon Thanyavanich,Wanchai Maneeboonyang,Laura L. Hungerford,James H. Maguire,David L. Smith +9 more
TL;DR: A malaria control programme was critically evaluated in a very low-endemicity Thai-Myanmar border population, where early detection and prompt treatment have substantially reduced, though not ended, Plasmodium falciparum transmission.
Journal ArticleDOI
Longitudinal study of Plasmodium falciparum and Plasmodium vivax in a Karen population in Thailand.
Waraphon Phimpraphi,Richard Paul,Surapon Yimsamran,Supalarp Puangsa-art,Nipon Thanyavanich,Wanchai Maneeboonyang,Sutthiporn Prommongkol,Samarn Sornklom,Wutthichai Chaimungkun,Irwin Chavez,Hervé Blanc,Sornchai Looareesuwan,Anavaj Sakuntabhai,Pratap Singhasivanon +13 more
TL;DR: There was a considerable reduction in incidence rates of both P. vivax and P. falciparum over a decade following implementation of a case treatment programme and the concern that intervention methods would inadvertently favour one species over another, or even lead to an increase in one parasite species, does not appear to be fulfilled.
Journal ArticleDOI
Very high carriage of gametocytes in asymptomatic low-density Plasmodium falciparum and P. vivax infections in western Thailand.

TL;DR: Asymptomatic infections with Plasmodium spp.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a more comprehensive regional perspective in what is a global epicenter of drug resistant falciparum malaria, in order to improve malaria control on a regional basis in the context of social and economic change.
