Plasmodium vivax Malaria

TL;DR: Peripheral blood microscopy, parasite antigen–based assays, and parasite 18s rRNA gene–based polymerase chain reaction showed the presence of P. vivax and absence ofP.
Journal ArticleDOI

Severe Plasmodium vivax Malaria : A Report on Serial Cases from Bikaner in Northwestern India

TL;DR: Among patients with severe manifestations, 40 had evidence of monoinfection of P. vivax malaria, and further large-scale multicentric epidemiologic studies are needed to define the basic pathology of this less known entity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Clinical features of children hospitalized with malaria--a study from Bikaner, northwest India.

TL;DR: The evidence of severe P. vivax malaria in children in Bikaner is reaffirmed and the proportion of patients having severe manifestations, which included severe anemia, thrombocytopenia, cerebral malaria, acute respiratory distress syndrome, hepatic dysfunction, renal dysfunction, abnormal bleeding was significantly high in association with P. falciparum.

Unraveling the Plasmodium vivax sporozoite transcriptional journey from mosquito vector to human host

TL;DR: In vitro phenotyping and RNA-seq analyses revealed key microenvironmental relationships with distinct biological functions and preserved sporozoite quiescence by exposure to insect-like factors coupled with strategic activation limits untimely activation of invasion-associated genes to dramatically increase hepatocyte invasion rates.
