Mutant pfcrt "SVMNT" haplotype and wild type pfmdr1 "N86" are endemic in Plasmodium vivax dominated areas of India under high chloroquine exposure

Prashant K Mallick, Hema Joshi, Neena Valecha, Surya K Sharma, Alex Eapen, Rajendra M Bhatt, Harish C Srivastava, Patrick L Sutton, Aditya P Dash, Virendra K Bhasin Malaria Journal 2012, 11:16 (11 January 2012)

In this study, the distribution of pfcrt haplotypes and the pfmdr-1 mutation (N86Y) has been described across 11 sites in India and evaluated for a correlation between the prevalence of mutations and the clinical outcome of CQ treatment.

Spread of anti-malarial drug resistance: Mathematical model with implications for ACT drug policies

Wirichada Pongtavornpinyo, Shunmay Yeung, Ian M Hastings, Arjen M Dondorp, Nicholas PJ Day, Nicholas J White Malaria Journal 2008, 7:229 (2 November 2008)

This article describes a new simulation model for malaria. It is, quite obviously, not the first model of its type, but it is an exceptional example of a simulation model. The model is complex enough to give some confidence in the epidemiological significance.
