TL;DR: The activity and safety of four low doses of primaquine combined with dihydroartemisinin-piperaquine in male patients in Mali were established and adverse events did not differ between treatment groups.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thrombocytopenia in Plasmodium vivax Malaria Is Related to Platelets Phagocytosis
Helena Cristina Cardoso Coelho,Stefanie C. P. Lopes,João Paulo Diniz Pimentel,Paulo Nogueira,Fabio T. M. Costa,André M. Siqueira,Gisely Cardoso de Melo,Wuelton Marcelo Monteiro,Adriana Malheiro,Marcus V. G. Lacerda +9 more
TL;DR: It is indicated that platelet phagocytosis may contribute to thrombocytopenia found in vivax malaria patients, and new avenues to explore the mechanisms involved in platelet dysfunction are opened.
Journal ArticleDOI
Self-medication with anti-malarials is a common practice in rural communities of Kilosa district in Tanzania despite the reported decline of malaria
Beatrice Chipwaza,Beatrice Chipwaza,Joseph P. Mugasa,Iddy Mayumana,Mbaraka Amuri,Christina Makungu,Paul Gwakisa,Paul Gwakisa +7 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that self-medication practice is common among rural communities in the study area and the need for community awareness is emphasized for correct and comprehensive information about drawbacks associated with self-Medication practices.
Journal ArticleDOI

W. Robert Shaw,Eleonora Teodori,Sara N. Mitchell,Francesco Baldini,Paolo Gabrieli,David W. Rogers,Flaminia Catteruccia,Flaminia Catteruccia,Flaminia Catteruccia +8 more
TL;DR: These findings provide the first evidence of the mechanisms regulating fertility in Anopheles, and identify heme peroxidase HPX15 as a target for vector control.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mario Zapata,Astrid V. Cienfuegos,Oscar I. Quirós,Martha L. Quiñones,Shirley Luckhart,Margarita M. Correa +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors described a method for the identification of seven anopheline species in a locality in Antioquia, Colombia, with high levels of malaria transmission.

Journal ArticleDOI
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.
