BACKGROUND: In order to provide a cost-effective tool to analyse pharmacogenetic markers in malaria treatment, DNA microarray technology was compared with sequencing of polymerase chain reaction (PCR)
Prevalence and factors associated with convulsive status epilepticus in Africans with epilepsy (Publications)
, acute encephalopathy, previous hospitalization, and presence of antibody titers to falciparum malaria and HIV; these differed across sites. Burns (15%), lack of education (49%), being single (77%), and
Blood-stage parasitaemia and age determine <em>Plasmodium falciparum</em> and <em>P. vivax</em> gametocytaemia in Papua New Guinea (Publications)
A better understanding of human-to-mosquito transmission is crucial to control malaria. In order to assess factors associated with gametocyte carriage, 2083 samples were collected in a cross-sectional
Asymptomatic <em>Plasmodium falciparum</em> infections may not be shortened by acquired immunity (Publications)
naturally acquired immunity (NAI) can shorten infections, despite the potential implications for malaria control and elimination as well as for basic research. METHODS: Data on the presence of P. falciparum
Efficacy of the spatial repellent product Mosquito Shield™ against wild pyrethroid-resistant <em>Anopheles arabiensis</em> in south-eastern Tanzania (Publications)
active ingredient (AI) within a space offer a scalable solution to further reduce transmission of malaria, by disrupting mosquito behaviours in ways that ultimately lead to reduced human-vector contact.
Design, synthesis and evaluation of praziquantel analogues and new molecular hybrids as potential antimalarial and anti-schistosomal agents (Publications)
Malaria and schistosomiasis are two of the neglected tropical diseases that persistently wreak havoc worldwide. Although many antimalarial drugs such as chloroquine are readily available, the emergence
Influence of sugar availability and indoor microclimate on survival of <em>Anopheles gambiae</em> (Diptera: Culicidae) under semifield conditions in... (Publications)

Emergence of artemisinin-resistant <em>Plasmodium falciparum</em> with <em>kelch13 </em>C580Y mutations on the island of New Guinea (Publications)
nt Plasmodium falciparum carrying the C580Y mutation in the kelch13 gene is a growing threat to malaria elimination in Southeast Asia, but there is no evidence of their spread to other regions. We conducted
