The end of a dogma: the safety of doxycycline use in young children for malaria treatment
Anti‐malarial drug resistance to chloroquine and sulfadoxine‐pyrimethamine has spread from Southeast Asia to Africa. Furthermore, the recent emergence of resistance to artemisinin‐based combination therapy (AC…

Novel lead structures with both Plasmodium falciparum gametocytocidal and asexual blood stage activity identified from high throughput compound screening
Blocking malaria transmission is an important step in eradicating malaria. In the field, transmission requires the production of sexual stage Plasmodium parasites, called gametocytes, which are not effectively ki…

Spatial clustering and risk factors of malaria infections in Bata district, Equatorial Guinea
The transmission of malaria is intense in the majority of the countries of sub‐Saharan Africa, particularly in those that are located along the Equatorial strip. The present study aimed to describe the current…

Patterns of inflammatory responses and parasite tolerance vary with malaria transmission intensity
In individuals living in malaria‐endemic regions, parasitaemia thresholds for the onset of clinical symptoms vary with transmission intensity. The mechanisms that mediate this relationship are however, unclear…

Caregivers’ perception of malaria and treatment-seeking behaviour for under five children in Mandura District, West Ethiopia: a cross-sectional study
Early diagnosis and prompt malaria treatment is essential to reduce progression of the illness to severe disease and, therefore, decrease mortality particularly among children under 5 years of age. This study …

Therapeutic efficacy and artemisinin resistance in northern Myanmar: evidence from in vivo and molecular marker studies
In Myanmar, three types of artemisinin‐based combination therapy (ACT) are recommended as first‐line treatment of uncomplicated falciparum malaria: artemether‐lumefantrine (AL), artesunate‐mefloquine (AS + MQ)…

Effects of community-level bed net coverage on malaria morbidity in Lilongwe, Malawi
The protective effect of insecticide‐treated bed nets against individual‐level malaria transmission is well known, however community‐level effects are less understood. Protective effects from community‐level b…

Challenges for achieving safe and effective radical cure of Plasmodium vivax: a round table discussion of the APMEN Vivax Working Group
The delivery of safe and effective radical cure for Plasmodium vivax is one of the greatest challenges for achieving malaria elimination from the Asia‐Pacific by 2030. During the annual meeting of the Asia Pacifi…

Characterization of Plasmodium falciparum genes associated with drug resistance in Hodh Elgharbi, a malaria hotspot near Malian–Mauritanian border
A malaria hotspot in the southeastern region of Mauritania, near the Malian border, may hamper malaria control strategies. The objectives were to estimate the prevalence of genetic polymorphisms associated wit…

Asymptomatic and sub-microscopic malaria infection in Kayah State, eastern Myanmar
Myanmar has the heaviest burden of malaria in the Greater Mekong Sub‐region. Asymptomatic Plasmodium spp. infections are common in this region and may represent an important reservoir of transmission that must b…

A novel model fitted to multiple life stages of malaria for assessing efficacy of transmission-blocking interventions
Transmission‐blocking interventions (TBIs) aim to eliminate malaria by reducing transmission of the parasite between the host and the invertebrate vector. TBIs include transmission‐blocking drugs and vaccines …

Prevalence and genetic variants of G6PD deficiency among two Malagasy populations living in Plasmodium vivax-endemic areas
The prevalence and variants of G6PD deficiency in the Plasmodium vivax‐endemic zones of Madagascar remain unknown. The admixed African‐Austronesian origins of the Malagasy population make it probable that a heter…
