Theodora A Okeke, Benjamin SC Uzochukwu
Malaria Journal 2009, 8:260 (20 November 2009)

Population structure analyses and demographic history of the malaria vector Anopheles albimanus from the Caribbean and the Pacific regions of Colombia
Lina A Gutierrez, Nelson J Naranjo, Astrid V Cienfuegos, Carlos E Muskus, Shirley Luckhart, Jan E Conn, Margarita M Correa
Malaria Journal 2009, 8:259 (19 November 2009)
[Abstract] [Provisional PDF]
|
this study showed patterns of gene flow among the different Anopheles albimanus populations from Colombia. This knowledge could be applied to current vector control strategies since data on vector population genetics allow the inference of the spread of genes important for insecticide resistance or refractoriness to malaria parasites.

Jean-Pierre Van geertruyden, Erika Van Eijk, Francisca Yosaatmadja, Webster Kasongo, Modest Mulenga, Umberto D'Alessandro, Stephen Rogerson
Malaria Journal 2009, 8:258 (18 November 2009)

HIV-1 affects humoral responses to AMA-1, but seems to marginally or not affect humoral responses to other merozoite antigens and variable surface antigens

Self-reported data: a major tool to assess compliance with anti-malarial combination therapy among children in Senegal
Aurelia Souares, Patricia Moulin, Sophie Sarrassat, Marie-Paule Carlotti, Richard Lalou, Jean-Yves Le Hesran
Malaria Journal 2009, 8:257 (17 November 2009)
[Abstract] [Provisional PDF]

Predicting the impact of insecticide-treated bed nets on malaria transmission: the devil is in the detail
Weidong Gu, Robert J Novak
Malaria Journal 2009, 8:256 (16 November 2009)
[Abstract] [Full Text] [PDF] [PubMed] [Related articles]
|
The paper presents a new model for evaluating the impact of ITNs on malaria parasite transmission. Once validated by field studies, such a model could have great significance for the future control of malaria, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa.

Plasmodium life-cycle and natural history of malaria
This animation, which illustrates, in six short sequences, the various stages of the life-cycle of the malaria parasite in the human host and in its mosquito vector, has been conceived by Professors Christophe Rogier et Marcel Hommel.
