Malaria has troubled mankind for millennia. Before Ronald Ross’s proof, the dreaded disease was attributed to supernatural influences such as angered deities, evil spirits, or the black magic of sorcerers. Later on, with the observations that malaria occurred more often near the water logged areas...

Although great strides have been made in the reduction of the worldwide burden of malaria disease, a better understanding of the epidemiology of malaria is needed to continue the fight against the disease. Specifically, insight into the transmission of malaria within households might offer new ...
CONCLUSIONS: A set of benchmark tests based on performance measures are developed to be used on any proposed malaria transmission model to test its overall behaviour in comparison to both other models and data sets. 展开 关键词: Malaria Epidemiology Mathematical model Sensitivity analysis Disease ...
A 56-year-old man was admitted to an Italian hospital with fever andPlasmodium falciparumparasitemia, but with no risk factors for malaria. Twenty days earlier, he had been admitted for bronchopulmonary disease to the hospital's intensive care unit, where a woman withP. falciparummalaria ...
By increasing the stiffness of erythrocytes infected by the causal agent of malaria, Viagra favors their elimination from the blood circulation and may therefore reduce transmission of the parasite from humans to mosquitoes. This astonishing discovery, made by scientists from the CNRS, INSERM, Universit...
By strict definition, mosquitoes are the definitive host of malaria as they are the organism in which sexual reproduction of the agent protozoa, Plasmodium spp., occurs. Reservoir host: A host that serves to sustain an infectious pathogen as a potential source of infection for transmission to ...
