| [falciparum malaria in switzerland: a problem of intensive care?]. | in the period 1972-1976, 5 of 17 patients admitted to the cantonal hospital, basel, for falciparum malaria had to be treated in the intensive care unit. two patients died. none had performed regular chemoprophylaxis and in all of them several days had elapsed between onset of symptoms and diagnosis. the importance of information on malaria to tourists and physicians is stressed. | 1977 | 337475 |
| invasion and growth of plasmodium falciparum in different types of human erythrocyte. | the susceptibility of human red blood cells to invasion by plasmodium falciparum was investigated in microtissue cultures with different populations of erythrocytes containing fetal haemoglobin (hbf). preferential invasion of hbf-containing erythrocytes was observed with umbilical cord blood. the parasites showed no preference for hbf cells in blood from a subject with hereditary persistence of fetal haemoglobin (hpfh). by contrast, a significant preference for hba-containing erythrocytes was fo ... | 1977 | 338178 |
| a histidine-rich protein from plasmodium falciparum and its interaction with membranes. | in previous studies, an unusual protein with 70% of histidine was isolated from plasmodium lophurae. it was shown to have a possible function in the penetration of merozoites into erythrocytes. the results of the present study indicate the presence of a similar histidine-rich protein in plasmodium falciparum. like that of p. lophurae, the histidine-rich protein of p. falciparum is acid-soluble, but it has a slightly higher molecular weight. | 1977 | 338179 |
| ultrastructure and viability of cryopreserved plasmodium falciparum. | cryopreserved chimpanzee erythrocytes infected with plasmodium falciparum were examined by electron microscopy directly and after a period of culture. light microscopic observations on the viability of cryopreserved parasites in culture were also made. parasitaemia data from a chimpanzee infected with parasites cryostored for more than 2(1/2) years are presented. varying degrees of damage were apparent as the parasites were examined in vitro, for viability, and by electron microscopy. schizonts ... | 1977 | 338185 |
| cultivation of erythrocytic stages. | two methods are described for the continuous cultivation of plasmodium falciparum. one method provides for a continuous slow flow of medium over a settled layer of blood cells and does not require daily attention. with the other method, carried out in petri dishes, the medium has to be changed manually every day. the problems and possibilities of continuous cultivation are discussed. | 1977 | 338187 |

| the duffy blood group and malaria prevalence in gambian west africans. | erythrocytes from 1,168 donors, comprising almost the entire populations of two rural gambian villages, have been tested for duffy blood group antigens using antisera to both fya and fyb. all tests were negative. blood film examination of the same samples showed complete absence of plasmodium vivax parasitaemia, but infections with p. falciparum,p. malariae and p. ovale were observed. the findings are consistent with the view that the duffy-negative phenotype, fyfy, constitutes the basis of inna ... | 1977 | 339418 |
| the treatment of severe falciparum malaria. | in severe falciparum malaria there is a pathophysiological cascade beginning with changes in the parasitized red blood cells which induce intermediate effects, in turn contributing to dysfunction of several organs. a low serum albumin is a common but often unrecognized finding which may contribute to oedema especially in the lung and brain. the only irreversible complication in falciparum malaria is the acute respiratory distress syndrome, manifested by cyanosis and rapid breathing, basically di ... | 1977 | 339421 |

| chloroquine-resistant falciparum malaria from papua new guinea and its implications for australia. | there is need for effective chemoprophylaxis against chloroquine-resistant falciparum malaria, and for a safe and effective drug to be readily available for the treatment of that condition. experience with the cases cited in this study indicates that fansidar should be made available for treatment and it is suggested that maloprim be made available as a prophylactic agent. | 1977 | 320435 |
| plasmodium falciparum gametocytes: their longevity and infectivity. | the longevity and infectivity of isolated populations of plasmodium falciparum gametocytes were studied. following chloroquine treatment gametocyte numbers fell with a constant rate of loss over a period of 16-24 days; the populations had a half-life of 2-4 days. the sex ratio stayed constant throughout at 4 female: 1 male. the ability of the microgametocytes to exflagellate and the infectivity of the population to mosquitoes persisted for 3 weeks. antibodies to the gametocytes were detected but ... | 1977 | 320542 |
| the seroepidemiology of malaria in middle america. iv. passage of malaria antibodies from mothers to infants. | in an area of el salvador moderately endemic for malaria, use of the indirect fluorescent antibody test (ifa) showed that 44% of the infants born to mothers who had ifa responses to plasmodium vivax of 1:20 or higher during the latter part of their pregnancy had positive ifa responses of 1:10 or higher to this antigen. no serum from an infant was positive in the absence of some level of malarial response in the mother. | 1977 | 339753 |

| biochemical markers for strain differentiation in malarial parasites. | genetic differences between micro-organisms can be identified by studying variations in enzyme forms and dna characteristics. enzyme electrophoresis has revealed considerable genetic diversity in populations of malarial parasites and has enabled populations reproductively isolated from one another to be identified. studies on rodent malarial parasites from four regions of africa have shown that each species and subspecies can be distinguished by its pattern of enzyme forms. in subspecies in whic ... | 1977 | 303952 |
| biomedical survey in irian jaya (west irian), indonesia. | a biomedical survey was conducted in several areas of irian jaya, indonesia in july 1972 in association with an investigation of reports of a cholera outbreak. stool specimens, blood smears and sera were collected and examined for evidence of parasitic as well as other infectious diseases. a total of 114 stools were examined and the most commonly found intestinal parasites were trichuris trichiura (94%), ascaris lumbricoides (74%), hookworm (58%), entamoeba coli (15%), endolimax nana (8%), entam ... | 1977 | 208184 |
| [relations between malaria and burkitt's lymphoma]. | malaria, especially forest malaria, is the environmental factor which creates endemic conditions for the esptein-barr virus related burkitt's lymphoma. the plasmodium seems active through a mitogenic factor rather than through the so often invoked immunological depresssion. | 1977 | 208788 |

| [a probable laboratory contamination with plasmodium falciparum]. | a student working in a medical biology department presented a severe plasmodium falciparum malaria, with high thrombopenia, hypercalcemia and hypophosphoremia. the mode of infection seems to be a laboratory contamination with a highly contaminated blood sample through skin excoriations. | 1977 | 352557 |
| [2 cases of plasmodium falciparum malaria. probable responsibility of anopheles transported by air]. | report of two cases of plasmodium falciparum malaria which seem to be originary from the pariser area: the first one in a luggage carrier working in an airport; the second one in a subject living in the neighbourhood of this airport. these cases perhaps question the hygiene measures taken on the arrival of planes coming from impalutaded regions. | 1977 | 352558 |
| [post-transfusion pernicious plasmodium falciparum attack in a patient with renal insufficiency]. | the authors report one case of transfusion induced falciparum cerebral malaria. among the parasites responsible for transfusion malaria, plasmodium falciparum is rarely implicated, but may be accompanied by serious complications. different ways of artificial transmission of the parasites are reported. clinical findings are few, so the examination of blood films is essential for diagnostic. the dangerous blood donor must be identified by immunofluorescent methods. the specific treatment is quinin ... | 1977 | 352559 |

| erythrocytic mechanism of sickle cell resistance to malaria. | the physiological basis for the resistance to falciparum malaria individuals with sickle cell trait has not been understood. recent advances in erythrocytic plasmodium falciparum culture have made possible a direct investigation of the development of the malaria parasite in cells with sickle cell homoglobin. in a high (18%) oxygen atmosphere, there is no apparent sickling of cells, and the growth and multiplication of p. falciparum is identical in normal (aa), hemoglobin s homozygous (ss), and h ... | 1978 | 347452 |
| [acute renal insufficiency caused by plasmodium falciparum malaria in the last period of pregnancy (2 cases) (author's transl)]. | a report of 2 cases of acute renal insufficiency in african women, 8 months pregnant and suffering of malignant malaria. in both cases labor has been induced by artificial breaking of the membranes and use of oxytocin. one of the children was still-born and the other died 3 days later. delivery has been followed by a resumption of the urinary flow, facilitated by high dosages of furosemide. this diuretic drug when associated with hypoprotidic diet, hypercaloric intravenous infusions of glucose h ... | 1978 | 364241 |
| [the question of endemic malaria in republic of djibouti (author's transl)]. | since 1973 autochthonous cases of malaria due to p. falciparum have been reported among local population of french afars and issas territory; 191 cases observed between 1973 and 1976 are recorded. their monthly distribution and geographical repartition are studied, jointly with the distribution of a. gambiae which has been recently collected in the territory. this study shows a significant correspondance between the presence of a. gambiae and the malaria cases observed which did not come from ne ... | 1978 | 364244 |

| human parasitoses of the malili area, south sulawesi (celebes) province, indonesia. | a biomedical survey was conducted in 9 villages in the malili area of south sulawesi, indonesia. blood specimens were examined for malaria and microfilariae; stool specimens were examined for intestinal parasites. malaria parasitemias were rare; plasmodium falciparum was detected in 10 and p. vivax in 11 of 985 blood smears. malayan filariasis was endemic to all villages surveyed. the overall prevalence of detectable microfilaremias was 15%, varying from 34% in kawata to 1% in nuha. microfilaria ... | 1978 | 364674 |
| standardization of the indirect fluorescent antibody test for malaria. | methods are described whereby results of malarial immunofluorescence tests can be evaluated objectively. the ifa test was quantitated by standardizing the physical system against a fluorescent standard and preparation of biological standards of malarial antisera and fluorescein labelled conjugates. using these known standards the reactivity of antigens was characterized. it was found that antigen preparations are best when they include mature schizonts, and keep best when they are stored in a dr ... | 1978 | 364783 |
