Population genomics studies identify signatures of global dispersal and drug resistance in Plasmodium vivax
(Springer Nature, 2016)
Plasmodium vivax is a major public health burden, responsible for the majority of malaria infections outside Africa. We explored the impact of demographic history and selective pressures on the P. vivax genome by sequencing ...
Estimation of the Antirelapse Efficacy of Tafenoquine, Using Plasmodium vivax Genotyping
(Oxford University Press, 2015)
UNLABELLED: Prevention of relapse of Plasmodium vivax infection is a key treatment goal in malaria. Use of P. vivax genotyping in a multicenter, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled phase 2b study in Peru, India, ...
Genetic variability of Plasmodium vivax and patterns of recurrence in asymptomatic malaria at Mazan, Iquitos, PeruVariabilidad genética y recurrencia de Plasmodium vivax durante la malaria asintomática en Mazán, Iquitos, Perú
(Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos, Facultad de Medicina Humana, 2012)
Towards one standard treatment for uncomplicated Plasmodium falciparum and Plasmodium vivax malaria: Perspectives from and for the Peruvian Amazon
(Elsevier, 2021)
Malaria continues to wreak havoc in the Peruvian Amazon. Lengthy research efforts have brought important lessons on its particular epidemiology: the heterogeneous levels of transmission, the large reservoir of both ...
High prevalence of very-low Plasmodium falciparum and Plasmodium vivax parasitaemia carriers in the Peruvian Amazon: insights into local and occupational mobility-related transmission
(BioMed Central, 2017)
BACKGROUND: The incidence of malaria due both to Plasmodium falciparum and Plasmodium vivax in the Peruvian Amazon has risen in the past 5 years. This study tested the hypothesis that the maintenance and emergence of malaria ...
Identification of different malaria patterns due to Plasmodium falciparum and Plasmodium vivax in Ethiopian children: a prospective cohort study
(BioMed Central, 2016)
BACKGROUND: The identification of epidemiological pattern of infection with Plasmodium falciparum and Plasmodium vivax in malaria-endemic area, where multiple episodes are common, is important for intervention programmes. ...
Lack of molecular correlates of Plasmodium vivax ookinete development
(American Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2011)
Previous studies of Plasmodium vivax transmission to Anopheles spp. mosquitoes have not been able to predict mosquito infectivity on the basis of microscopic or molecular quantification of parasites (total parasites in the ...
MEFAS, a hybrid of artesunate-mefloquine active against asexual stages of Plasmodium vivax in field isolates, inhibits malaria transmission
(Elsevier, 2021)
Human malaria continues to be a public health problem and an important cause of morbidity and mortality in the world. Malaria control is achieved through both individual protection against mosquito bites and drug treatment, ...
Malaria Molecular Epidemiology: Lessons from the International Centers of Excellence for Malaria Research Network
(American Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2015)
Molecular epidemiology leverages genetic information to study the risk factors that affect the frequency and distribution of malaria cases. This article describes molecular epidemiologic investigations currently being ...
Infection of laboratory-colonized Anopheles darlingi mosquitoes by Plasmodium vivax
(American Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2014)
Anopheles darlingi Root is the most important malaria vector in the Amazonia region of South America. However, continuous propagation of An. darlingi in the laboratory has been elusive, limiting entomological, genetic/genomic, ...
