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.
…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.

by Awoke Minwuyelet, Delenasaw Yewhalaw, Getnet Atenafu . Background Malaria remains a significant public health challenge in Ethiopia, hindering the country’s productivity and development. While malaria incidence had decreased by 2018, and Ethiopia is working towards eliminating the disease by 2030, outbreaks still occur even in areas of low endemicity.

. Background. Individuals experiencing recurrent malaria infections encounter a variety of alleles with each new infection. This ongoing allelic diversity influences the development of naturally acquired immunity and it can inform vaccine efficacy.

Malaria remains endemic in 91 countries and territories, which are visited by over 125 million international travellers annually. Each year, over 10,000 travellers contract malaria in these areas, though underreporting suggests a higher true incidence (1). Atovaquone-proguanil (AP; brand names Malarone®, Malanil®, and others) is a frequently prescribed chemoprophylaxis against Plasmodium (P.) falciparum malaria that is highly effective and well-tolerated (2).

. Background. Malaria is a parasitic disease caused by protozoa of the genus Plasmodium, transmitted through the bites of Anopheles mosquitoes. Despite significant progress in malaria control, the disease remains a persistent public health challenge, particularly in specific Brazilian regions where environmental and socioeconomic factors contribute to its transmission.

. Background. Malaria and viral haemorrhagic fever (VHF) have overlapping symptomatology, creating clinical and diagnostic challenges within, and in travellers returning from, co-endemic areas. Rapid and accurate malaria diagnosis is critical, yet complicated by safety measures required for VHF. . Methods.

Regardless of malaria transmission intensity and age group, a single dose of 0·25 mg/kg primaquine is safe and efficacious for reducing P falciparum transmission. These findings underscore the need for primaquine formulations suitable for young children, and also provide supportive evidence to expand the use of single low-dose primaquine in regions with a moderate-to-high transmission rate that are threatened by artemisinin partial resistance.

. Background. The malaria test positivity rate (TPR) is a key indicator for evaluating the effectiveness of malaria interventions. In Nigeria, routine data from January to June 2021 reported consistently high TPRs, ranging from 73 to 82%, while Oyo State reported TPRs of 70% to 74% during the same period. These figures were inconsistent with malaria therapeutic efficacy studies conducted between October 2009 and November 2010, which reported a much lower TPR of 35%.

Erythrocyte invasion by the malaria-causing parasite Plasmodium falciparum can be inhibited by antibodies against apical membrane antigen 1 (AMA1). Patel et al. identified two human anti-AMA1 monoclonal antibodies, one of which has strain-transcending neutralizing activity. Lateral interactions between the two antibodies improved their binding kinetics and inhibitory activity.
Trends in Parasitology

The Plasmodium liver-stage (LS) represents a promising target for malaria vaccine and drug development, as LS elimination prevents progression to symptomatic blood-stage (BS) infection and subsequent parasite transmission. Comprehensive LS gene expression profiles remain unexplored. Zanghi et al. report successful transcriptomic analysis of human malaria LS throughout intrahepatocytic development.
Trends in Parasitology

The ability to genotype malaria parasites on an epidemiological scale is crucial for genomic surveillance as it aids in understanding malaria transmission dynamics and parasite demography changes in response to antimalarial interventions. Identity-by-descent (IBD)-based methods have demonstrated potential in various aspects of malaria genomic surveillance.
Malaria Journal

. Background. Malaria control in African cities faces challenges mainly due to unplanned urbanization and the spread of Anopheles stephensi. Urbanization is changing malaria dynamics, driven by environmental changes and population growth, with nearly 70% of people projected to live in urban areas by 2050. This scoping review maps the epidemiology of urban malaria in sub-Saharan Africa, identifying research gaps and guiding strategies for control and elimination.

. Background. The use of pre-referral injectable artesunate is among the strategies adopted to improve the outcome of childhood severe malaria in Nigeria. However, the extent of its implementation and impact on outcomes remain unknown. This study assessed the pre-referral treatment with injectable artesunate for severe malaria, associated factors, and hospitalisation outcomes (discharge or death) among a cohort of children managed at a secondary health facility in Nigeria.

. Background. The last malaria cases in near-elimination settings are often found in international border regions due to the presence of hard-to-reach populations, conflict, uneven intervention coverage, and human migration. Test-and-treat border posts are an under-researched form of active case detection used to interrupt transmission chains between countries. . Methods.

. Background. Western Province, Zambia experiences persistent and residual malaria transmission despite high household coverage of core vector control interventions. Standard vector surveillance, conducted overnight at households, indicates that the dominant malaria vector Anopheles funestus sensu stricto (s.s.) bites opportunistically both indoors and outdoors, and remains active throughout the night and into the late morning after the sun rises.

. Background. In sub-Saharan Africa, Plasmodium falciparum is the most prevalent species of malaria parasites. In endemic areas, malaria is mainly diagnosed using microscopy or rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs), which have limited sensitivity, and microscopic expertise is waning in non-endemic regions.

Abstract . Increasing artemisinin partial resistance (ART-R) due to mutations in the gene encoding Kelch13 (Pfk13) protein in eastern Africa is of urgent concern, and mutations, such as Pfk13 P441L, continue to emerge. We used an amplicon deep-sequencing panel to estimate the prevalence of validated and candidate ART-R Pfk13 mutations in samples collected between 2018 and 2023 in southern Zambia. Pfk13 P441L was present in 30 of 501 samples (6%), and prevalence increased over time (0% to 7.2%).

Progress in malaria control will rely on deployment and effective targeting of combinations of interventions, including malaria vaccines and perennial malaria chemoprevention (PMC). Several countries with PMC programmes have introduced malaria vaccination into their essential programmes on immunizations, but empirical evidence on the impact of combining these two interventions and how best to co-implement them are lacking.

. Background. The global burden of malaria among children remains severe; however, there is a dearth of comprehensive studies comparing this burden across different countries and regions. This study aims to analyze the patterns and trends in malaria burden among children under the age of 15 at global, regional, and national levels from 1990 to 2021, and to investigate the correlation between malaria burden and the developmental status of different countries. .
