…om, men det er netop hvad en videreudvikling af artemisiner kan gøre. Det var derfor fuldt fortjent at Youyou Tu fra Kina modtog Nobel prisen 2015 for hendes opdagelse i 1970’erne at Artemisia annua fra traditionel kinesisk medicin havde effekt på malaria. De første kliniske forsøg blev udført i 1973 og længe var det vanskeligt at have adgang til disse lægemidler udenfor Kina. Nu har anvendelsen af intravenøs artesunate imidlertid erstattet kinin og er blevet standard i Europa ved svær malari…

. Abstract. . Background. Malaria is endemic in 95% of Uganda and constitutes the country’s most significant public health problem—being the leading cause of morbidity and mortality, especially among children under five years of age. The current national malaria treatment policy is to use artemisinin-based combination therapy (ACT) as first-line treatment, and recommends parasitological confirmation of malaria before the…

. Abstract. . Background. Anopheles stephensi is a malaria-transmitting mosquito that has recently expanded from its primary range in Asia and the Middle East, to locations in Africa. This species is a competent vector of both Plasmodium falciparum and Plasmodium vivax malaria. Perhaps most alarming, the characteristics of An. stephensi, such as container breeding and anthropophily, make it particularly adept at exploiting b…

Community case management of malaria (CCM) has been expanded in many settings, but there are limited data describing the impact of these services in routine implementation settings or at large scale. Zambia has intensively expanded CCM since 2013, whereby trained volunteer community health workers (CHW) use rapid diagnostic tests and artemether-lumefantrine to diagnose and treat uncomplicated malari…

Malaria, a treatable disease mainly caused by Plasmodium falciparum has remained a health challenge in Africa, a continent that accounted for 96% of total global cases and deaths in 2021. Uganda, a malaria endemic country is experiencing malaria parasite resistance to some of the drugs used in the artemisinin-based combination therapy (ACT). In an effort to prioritize herbal medicines for new produc…

. Abstract. . Background. While many malaria-endemic countries have health management information systems that can measure and report malaria trends in a timely manner, these routine systems have limitations. Periodic community cross-sectional household surveys are used to estimate malaria prevalence and intervention coverage but lack geographic granularity and are resource intensive. Incorporating malaria testing for all wo…

. Abstract. . Background. The primary malaria vector-control interventions, indoor residual spraying and long-lasting insecticidal nets, are effective against indoor biting and resting mosquito species. Consequently, outdoor biting and resting malaria vectors might elude the primary interventions and sustain malaria transmission. Varied vector biting and resting behaviour calls for robust entomological surveillance. This stu…

AbstractBackgroundMalaria during pregnancy can cause serious consequences including maternal anemia and low birthweight (LBW). Routine antenatal care (ANC) in Rwanda includes malaria symptom screening at each ANC visit. This cluster randomized controlled trial investigated whether adding intermittent screening with a malaria rapid diagnostic test (RDT) at each routine ANC visit and treatment of positives during pregnancy (ISTp) is more effective than routine ANC for reducing malaria prevalence at delivery.M…

by Madhurima Seal, Soumendranath Chatterjee. Mosquitoes prefer diverse water bodies for egg laying and larval survival. Present study was performed with an objective to characterize physico-chemical properties and microbial profiling of breeding habitat water bodies of Anopheles subpictus mosquitoes. A field survey was accomplished to check the presence of An. subpictus larvae to record per dip larval density in various breeding habitats throughout the year. Physico-chemical and bacteriological properties i…

. Introduction. Plasmodium knowlesi malaria is a non-human simian malaria that threatens Southeast Asian rural communities. Studies indicate that non-compliant bednet usage, travelling into the forest and working as farmers and rubber tappers put communities at risk for infection. Despite guidelines, malaria incidence increases yearly and has become a public health concern. In addition to research gaps addressing factors that influence malaria prevention behaviour in these communities, there are no specif…

. Abstract. . Background. Anopheles farauti is one of the major vectors of malaria in the Southwest Pacific region and is responsible for past outbreaks in Australia. With an adaptable biting profile conducive to behavioural resistance to indoor residual spraying (IRS) and insecticide-treated nets (ITNs), its all-night biting behaviour can switch to biting mostly in the early evening. With limited insight into the biting pro…

We report an outbreak investigation of two fatal cases of autochthonous Plasmodium falciparum malaria that occurred in Belgium in September 2020. Various hypotheses of the potential source of infection were investigated. The most likely route of transmission was through an infectious exotic Anopheles mosquito that was imported via the international airport of Brussels or the military airport Melsbroek and infected the cases who lived at 5 km from the airports. Based on genomic analysis of the parasite…
