  1. 1. Novel Therapy against Malaria Resistance using Meta-analysis

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Author : Adesola Oguntuyi; [2022]
    Keywords : Malaria; Novel Drug; Resistance; ACT;

    Abstract : Malaria causes severe illness and death in some cases if not treated on time. The most vulnerable people are children and pregnant women in areas where it is rampant. The causative agent of the most severe malaria is Plasmodium falciparum this parasite is transmitted by the female anopheles mosquito when infected with Plasmodium parasites. READ MORE

  2. 2. Synthesis and characterization of half-sandwich complexes with salicylaldimine ligand derivatives

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiska institutionen

    Author : Ujala Mahmud; [2021]
    Keywords : Malaria; Plasmodium; Ruthenium; Iridium; Rhodium; Inorganic chemistry; Chemistry;

    Abstract : New half-sandwich complexes of pentamethylcyclopentadienyl-rhodium, iridium, and p-cymene-ruthenium have been synthesized and characterized. All metal complexes contain ligands based on a 4-chloroquinoline framework analogous to the antimalarial drug chloroquine. READ MORE

  3. 3. Sequence Diversity andAntibody Response to Autologous and Heterologous MSP2 Antigens in a Prospective Malaria Immunology Cohort

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för medicinsk biokemi och mikrobiologi

    Author : Julia Zerebinski; [2021]
    Keywords : Malaria; sub-Saharan Africa; merozoite surface protein; antibody; immune response; antigen target;

    Abstract : Malaria, caused by the Plasmodium parasite and transmitted by mosquitoes, kills almost half a million people each year. Drug resistance in both the parasite and its vector make preventative measures increasingly important, and a fully protective vaccine is absolutely necessary to eradicate the disease. READ MORE

  4. 4. Treatment efficacy of artesunate-amodiaquine and prevalence of Plasmodium falciparum drug resistance markers in Zanzibar, 2002-2017

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Internationell mödra- och barnhälsovård (IMCH)

    Author : AUNG PAING SOE; [2019]
    Keywords : Plasmodium falciparum; Artesunate-amodiaquine; Therapeutic efficacy studies; Molecular surveillance; Antimalarial drug resistance;

    Abstract : Introduction: Emergence of resistance to artemisinin-based combination therapy (ACT) is a major threat to combat Plasmodium falciparum malaria. Regular therapeutic studies to monitor treatment efficacy is essential, and genotyping of molecular makers is useful for mapping development and spread of resistance. READ MORE

  5. 5. Effectiveness of mass drug administration for reducing seasonal malaria transmission towards its elimination in hotspot areas in Zanzibar

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för medicinsk biokemi och mikrobiologi

    Author : Hassina Abdullahi Hashi; [2017]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Background: Following the increase of international funding for implementation of the combined effective malaria control strategies for prevention, diagnosis and treatment in the past decades, a significant reduction with 30% of malaria attributed morbidity and mortality has been achieved. At present, declining transmission intensities, in areas of successful malaria control, have resulted in a relative increase of asymptomatic low parasite density infections that fall below the detection level of rapid diagnostic tests and microscopy.
