<em>Plasmodium falciparum</em>: in vitro activity of sulfadoxine and dapsone in field isolates from Kenya: point mutations in dihydropteroate synthase... (Publications)
Kilifi, Kenya. We assessed the presence of mutations at codons 436, 437, 540, 581, and 613 of dhps. The results showed that the dhps genotype had a strong influence on the sensitivity to sulfadoxine and

agricultural land-use. We explored the effects of land-use changes on the abundance, distribution, and host-seeking behavior of Aedes mosquitoes along a gradient of anthropogenic disturbance in oil palm-dominated [...] land-use/land-cover changes due to the conversion of rainforest into oil palm monocultures influence the abundance, distribution, and host-seeking behaviors of anthropophagic and non-anthropophagic Aedes vectors [...] priority areas for vector control is of considerable public...
Incidence of <em>Plasmodium falciparum</em> malaria infection in 6-month to 45-year-olds on selected areas of Bioko Island, Equatorial Guinea (Publications)
assessed the incidence of malaria at the phase 3 study site and characterized the influence of socio-demographic factors on the burden of malaria to guide trial design. METHODS: A cohort of 240 randomly selected [...] Island to evaluate the safety and efficacy of whole Plasmodium falciparum (Pf) sporozoite (SPZ) malaria vaccines. A large, pivotal trial of the safety and efficacy of the radiation-attenuated Sanaria((R)) PfSPZ [...] aged 6 months to 45 years from selected areas of North Bioko...

Retail sector distribution chains for malaria treatment in the developing world: a review of the literature (Publications)
supply sources are likely to have an important influence on the availability, quality and price of malaria treatment. This article presents the findings of a systematic literature review on the retail sector [...] all types of anti-malarial retailers. Organizations involved in malaria treatment and distribution chain related activities were contacted to identify unpublished studies. RESULTS: A total of 32 references [...] less-formal outlets was made of more levels than that serving urban and...
Mapping intra-urban malaria risk using high resolution satellite imagery: a case study of Dar es Salaam (Publications)
half of Africa's population expected to live in urban settlements by 2030, the burden of malaria among urban populations in Africa continues to rise with an increasing number of people at risk of infection [...] the control of malaria in rapidly growing African urban settlements. The complex and heterogeneous nature of urban malaria requires a better understanding of the spatial and temporal patterns of urban malaria [...] factors that influence localized heterogeneity of malaria transmission...
