TL;DR: The ACCESS Programme is a combination of multiple complementary interventions with a strong evaluation component to contribute to the development of a more comprehensive access framework and to inform and support public health professionals and policy-makers in the delivery of improved health services.

Acute undifferentiated fever in India: a multicentre study of aetiology and diagnostic accuracy
Kristine Mørch,Kristine Mørch,Anand Manoharan,Sara Chandy,Novin Chacko,Gerardo Alvarez-Uria,Suvarna Patil,Anil Henry,Joel Nesaraj,Cijoy Kuriakose,Ashita Singh,Siby Jacob Kurian,Christel Gill Haanshuus,Nina Langeland,Nina Langeland,Bjørn Blomberg,Bjørn Blomberg,George Vasanthan Antony,Dilip Mathai +18 more
TL;DR: Malaria and dengue were the most common causes of fever in this study, and a high overlap between case definitions probably reflects high prevalence of prior infections, cross reactivity and subclinical infections, rather thanhigh prevalence of coinfections.

A Need for Better Housing to Further reduce Indoor Malaria Transmission in Areas with High Bed Net Coverage.
Dickson W. Lwetoijera,Dickson W. Lwetoijera,Samson S. Kiware,Samson S. Kiware,Zawadi D. Mageni,Stefan Dongus,Stefan Dongus,Caroline Harris,Caroline Harris,Gregor J. Devine,Silas Majambere,Silas Majambere +11 more
TL;DR: Despite significant reductions in vector density and malaria transmission caused by high coverage of ITNs, high numbers of host-seeking malaria vectors are still found indoors due to house designs that favour mosquito entry.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Variant PfCRT Isoform Can Contribute to Plasmodium falciparum Resistance to the First-Line Partner Drug Piperaquine.
Satish K. Dhingra,Devasha Redhi,Jill M. Combrinck,Tomas Yeo,John Okombo,Philipp P. Henrich,Annie N. Cowell,Purva Gupta,Matthew L. Stegman,Jonathan M. Hoke,Roland A. Cooper,Roland A. Cooper,Elizabeth A. Winzeler,Sachel Mok,Timothy J. Egan,David A. Fidock +15 more
TL;DR: Using zinc finger nuclease-based gene editing, it is reported that addition of the C101F mutation to the chloroquine (CQ) resistance-conferring PfCRT Dd2 isoform common to Asia can confer PPQ resistance to cultured parasites.
Journal ArticleDOI
Acetylcholinesterase (Ace-1) target site mutation 119S is strongly diagnostic of carbamate and organophosphate resistance in Anopheles gambiae s.s. and Anopheles coluzzii across southern Ghana
TL;DR: The results validate G119S as a useful diagnostic of organophosphate and carbamate resistance within and among populations, whilst highlighting the potential for an aggregate nature of Ace-1 genotypes, which may comprise both single-copy and duplicated genes.

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.
