Usefulness of Plasmodium falciparum-specific rapid diagnostic tests for assessment of parasite clearance and detection of recurrent infections after artemisinin-based combination therapy
Berit Aydin-Schmidt,Marycelina Mubi,Marycelina Mubi,Ulrika Morris,Max Petzold,Billy Ngasala,Zul Premji,Anders Björkman,Andreas Mårtensson,Andreas Mårtensson +9 more
TL;DR: The LDH-based RDT was superior to HRP2-based for monitoring of treatment outcome and detection of recurrent infections after ACT in this moderately high transmission setting.

Eric Hanssen,Christian Knoechel,Nectarios Klonis,Nurhidanatasha Abu-Bakar,Samantha Deed,Mark LeGros,Carolyn A. Larabell,Carolyn A. Larabell,Leann Tilley +8 more
TL;DR: Treatment of parasites with the antimalarial drug artemisinin appears to affect parasite development and their ability to produce the hemoglobin breakdown product, hemozoin.

TL;DR: A large proportion of asymptomatic plasmodial infections was found which likely act as a reservoir of transmission in Bangladesh and highlights the need for new intervention strategies targeting asymPTomatic carriers.
Meteorological, environmental remote sensing andneural network analysis of the epidemiologyof malaria transmission in Thailand
Richard K. Kiang,Farida Adimi,Valerii Soika,Joseph Nigro,Pratap Singhasivanon,Jeeraphat Sirichaisinthop,Somjai Leemingsawat,Chamnarn Apiwathnasorn,Sornchai Looareesuwan +8 more
TL;DR: In spite of the relatively low resolution of the data and the impact of migrant populations, a reasonably clear dependency of malaria on meteorological and environmental remote sensing variables is uncovered.
Journal ArticleDOI
Estimation of recent and long-term malaria transmission in a population by antibody testing to multiple Plasmodium falciparum antigens
Bartholomew N. Ondigo,Bartholomew N. Ondigo,James S. Hodges,Kathleen Ireland,Ng'wena G. Magak,David E. Lanar,Sheetij Dutta,David L. Narum,Gregory S. Park,Ayub V. Ofulla,Chandy C. John +10 more
TL;DR: Antibodies to P. falciparum antigens in malaria-endemic areas vary by age, antigen, and time since last exposure, which could provide estimates of long-term and recent malaria transmission and potentially of a population's susceptibility to future clinical malaria.

Malaria mortality rates in South Asia and in Africa: implications for malaria control.
TL;DR: This work examines malaria-related mortality under different circumstances and discusses implications for the management of malaria in these settings and emphasizes the power of rapid case treatment to save lives at risk under virtually all circumstances of malaria transmission.
Journal Article
Epidemiology of malaria in displaced Khmers on the Thai-Kampuchean border.
TL;DR: Malaria epidemiology from 1983 to 1985 in displaced Khmers living in camps on the Thai-Kampuchean border was studied and Epidemiological information has been more useful for planning than for evaluating control measures.
