Alvorlige infektioner skyldes primært Streptococcus pneumoniae, Haemophilus influenzae og Neisseria meningitidis. Risikoen for svær infektion ved malaria og dyrebid er også markant forhøjet. Vaccination, antibiotika profylakse/tidlig behandling og adækvat patient information er afgørende for forebyggelse af infektioner.

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.

Abstract . Background . The antirelapse activity of primaquine (PQ) for Plasmodium vivax malaria depends on the host cytochrome P450 2D6 (CYP2D6) enzyme activity. This study aimed to assess the efficacy of PQ for the radical cure of P. vivax malaria in the Greater Mekong Subregion and determine the association of the post-PQ recurrences with CYP2D6 genotypes.Methods . In 2014–2017, a total of 239 patients with uncomplicated P.

. Background. Malaria is a leading cause of illness and death among children under-five in sub-Saharan Africa, with Nigeria bearing the highest global malaria burden. Despite interventions such as insecticide-treated nets and indoor residual spraying, malaria prevalence remains high.
Malaria Journal

. Background. Seasonal malaria chemoprevention (SMC) with sulfadoxine-pyrimethamine and amodiaquine (SP + AQ) involves the monthly administration of therapeutic doses to children under five years of age during periods of high risk of malaria in regions where malaria transmission is highly seasonal. Current SMC guidelines recommend administering the same treatment to both non-infected and asymptomatic Plasmodium falciparum-infected children.

. Background. Malaria transmission in Sierra Leone is intense and perennial, accounting for 40% of clinical consultations. Medical workers diagnose suspected malaria cases using rapid diagnostic tests (RDT) and microscopy, with facility-level results reported to the Health Management Information System (HMIS) as monthly aggregates. Commodity stocks are reported to the Logistics Management Information System (LMIS).
Malaria Journal

. Background. Subpatent Plasmodium falciparum infections, defined as infections with parasite density below the detection limit of routine malaria diagnostic tests, contribute to infectious reservoirs, sustain transmission, and cause the failure of elimination strategies in target areas. This study assessed the prevalence of subpatent P. falciparum infections and associated risk factors in 14 regions of Mainland Tanzania. . Methods.

. Background. Malaria remains a significant public health concern in Yemen, ranking fourth in incidence within the Eastern Mediterranean Region. Community pharmacists play a pivotal role in malaria management and often dispense anti-malarial medications without prescriptions. However, little is known about their knowledge and adherence to the National Policy for Antimalarial Drugs.

Since SARS-CoV-2 has caused unprecedented changes in the epidemiology of other infectious diseases, investigations on coinfection between SARS-CoV-2 and one of the famous vector-borne diseases, malaria, are crucial for disease control, especially in malaria-endemic areas. The clinical profiles, possible mechanisms for interactions, and representative control measures of COVID-19 and malaria coinfections have recently garnered public attention.
Malaria Journal
26.03.2025
. Background. Malaria remains a significant global health threat, with sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) bearing the highest burden of the disease. Plasmodium falciparum is the predominant species in the region, leading to substantial morbidity and mortality. Despite intensified control efforts over the last two decades, P. falciparum genetic diversity and multiplicity of infections (MOI) continue to pose significant challenges to malaria elimination in the region.

. Background. Forest-exposed populations remain the last significant, and most difficult to access, high-risk populations for malaria in Cambodia. Despite the availability of long-lasting insecticidal nets (LLINs) and/or hammock nets (LLIHNs), continued malaria transmission indicates gaps in protection.
Malaria Journal
26.03.2025
. Background. The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends parasite-based diagnosis of malaria before treatment. The use of nucleic-acid amplification (NAAT) for detection of Plasmodium spp. has expanded rapidly in recent years, for epidemiological research globally and clinical care in high-resource settings. Data from NAATs are frequently used to inform policy decisions, so quality control is essential to ensure results are reliable and comparable.

. Background. Malaria remains the leading parasitic disease worldwide with a significant global morbidity and mortality burden. Plasmodium malariae, the least prevalent of the five Plasmodium species that cause human malaria, has unique characteristics including prolonged prepatent periods and life-long persistance. In non-endemic countries and particular in neonates with coexisting diseases diagnosis and therapy pose challenges. .

. Background. The Zanzibar Malaria Elimination Programme relies on insecticide-treated nets as the principal vector control method, supplemented by reactive focal indoor residual spraying. Despite the success, local malaria transmission persists, and the underlying reasons for sustained transmission remain unclear, yet critical to optimizing vector control for elimination.

. Background. Malaria poses a significant public health burden globally, particularly in Burundi, where it is the leading cause of mortality and morbidity. To eliminate malaria, the malaria vaccine will be introduced in childhood vaccination. However, the information on malaria vaccine acceptance is limited. Therefore, this study investigates malaria vaccine acceptance and associated factors in Burundi. . Methods.

The World Health Organization (WHO) has called for new malaria vaccines with > 90% efficacy against Plasmodium falciparum infection to expand the anti-disease benefit provided by the RTS,S/AS01 and R21/Matrix M subunit vaccines currently administered to infants and young children in sub-Saharan Africa.

. Background. Malaria is a major public health problem in Tanzania, accounting for 3.1% of the global cases, with under-five children being particularly vulnerable. Over half of malaria deaths in Tanzania occurred among under-five children. Identifying the spatial determinants of malaria is crucial for optimizing targeted interventions to reduce morbidity and mortality in this vulnerable population.
Malaria Journal
26.03.2025
. Background. Increasing unplanned urbanization in tropical Africa may create new niches for malaria vectors, raising transmission risk, yet control efforts focus on rural ecosystems. Understanding mosquito diversity, ecology and biting behaviour in urban areas is crucial for effective control. This study assessed Anopheles diversity, abundance, behaviour, and Plasmodium infection rates in Kisumu city, Kenya. . Methods.
