Shedding of TRAP by a Rhomboid Protease from the Malaria Sporozoite Surface Is Essential for Gliding Motility and Sporozoite Infectivity

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that TRAP removal from the sporozoite surface functions to break adhesive connections between the parasite and extracellular matrix or host cell receptors, which in turn is essential for motility and invasion.

Factors associated with mosquito net use by individuals in households owning nets in Ethiopia.

TL;DR: In both surveys, net use was more likely by women, if nets had fewer holes and were at higher net per person density within households, and improving net condition while focusing on education and promotion of net use, especially in school-age children and young adults in rural areas.

Temperature alters Plasmodium blocking by Wolbachia

TL;DR: A novel effect of wAlbB that resulted in reduced sporozoite development across temperatures, counterbalancing the oocyst enhancement at 24°C is identified, suggesting the impacts of transinfection might vary across diverse environments.

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.
