monitoring the chloroquine sensitivity of plasmodium vivax from calcutta and orissa, india. | chloroquine-resistant plasmodium vivax malaria was first reported in india in 1995. this report led to the round-the-year monitoring, in calcutta (west bengal) and mayurbhanj district (northern orissa), of the in-vivo sensitivity of local p. vivax to chloroquine (cq). between january 1998 and december 2001, 800 cases with microscopically confirmed p. vivax malaria were enrolled in the study. each was given cq in the regimen recommended both by the government of india and the world health organiz ... | 2003 | 12803853 |
the risk of malaria in travelers to india. | several countries have reported a decline in malaria cases imported by travelers returning from india. | 2009 | 19538581 |
prevalence of dengue viral and malaria parasitic co-infections in an epidemic district, angul of odisha, india: an eco-epidemiological and cross-sectional study for the prospective aspects of public health. | the co-existence of dengue and malaria infection in an individual and the primary and secondary dengue infection during co-infection were assessed. over 1 year, 1980 blood samples were collected from suspected cases of dengue fever and analyzed by rapid diagnostic test (rdt), enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (elisa) and polymerase chain reaction (pcr) methods to detect dengue infection. rdt and microscopic methods were used to detect malaria. of the 1980 samples, only 22 (3.0%) cases were ident ... | 2017 | 26653975 |
naturally acquired concomitant infections of bancroftian filariasis and human plasmodia in orissa. | blood smears collected from fever cases for detection of malaria parasites during daytime showed concomitant infections of wuchereria bancrofti from 1989 to 1991 in bisra phc of district sundargarh, orissa. of the total 51,448 blood smears examined, 18,444 (35.84%) were positive for malaria parasites which comprised 3401 (18.44%) plasmodium vivax, 14,524 (78.75%) p. falciparum, 156 (0.84%) p. malariae and 363 (1.97%) mixed plasmodial infections. only 240 (0.46%) cases were positive for w. bancro ... | 1995 | 8549837 |
sickle haemoglobin, g-6pd deficiency and malaria in western orissa. | sixty cases of malaria were screened for sickle haemoglobin and g-6pd deficiency. plasmodium vivax was detected in 40 (66%) and plasmodium falciparum in 21 (35%) cases, with six of the latter having cerebral manifestation. sickle hb was found in 7 (11.5%) patients and g-6pd deficiency in 3 (5%) cases. both patients with ss disease had vivax malaria, while of 5 with sickle cell trait 3 had only vivax, one only falciparum and one mixed infection. amongst g-6pd deficient patients one had vivax and ... | 1990 | 2246194 |
genetic diversity of plasmodium vivax in a hyperendemic area predominated by plasmodium falciparum; a preliminary study. | understanding the genetic diversity, extent and distribution of variant forms of plasmodium vivax parasites is crucial in the development of effective control measures and in orissa, a hyperendemic state in the eastern part of india, the polymorphic nature of p. vivax isolates is largely lacking. the result of the study analyzing two highly polymorphic single copy genes for p. vivax circumsporozoite protein (pvcs) and p. vivax merozoite surface protein 3α (pvmsp3α) shows that the parasite popula ... | 2010 | 21399600 |
radical curative efficacy of five-day regimen of primaquine for treatment of plasmodium vivax malaria in india. | for over 4 decades the antimalarial program in india has been prescribing a 5-day primaquine regimen as an antirelapse therapy to treat plasmodium vivax malaria. in view of conflicting reports on the effectiveness of this regimen in the indian subcontinent, and the varying prevalence of p. vivax in various ecosystems in india, the antirelapse efficacy of this regimen was evaluated in orissa, a malaria endemic state in eastern india where p. falciparum predominates. in 723 cases of p. vivax infec ... | 2002 | 12435158 |
persistent foci of falciparum malaria among tribes over two decades in koraput district of odisha state, india. | koraput, a predominantly tribe-inhabited and one of the highly endemic districts of odisha state that contributes a substantial number of malaria cases to the india's total. control of malaria in such districts would contribute to change the national scenario on malaria situation. hence, a study was carried out to measure the magnitude of malaria prevalence in the district to strengthen the malaria control activities. | 2013 | 23433186 |
effect of construction of an irrigation canal on malaria situation in two primary health centres of dhenkanal district of orissa, india. | to assess the impact of irrigation canals on malaria transmission, a study was conducted in dhenkanal district of orissa, india. the district is situated in the central part of orissa and hyperendemic area for malaria. a canal system is being constructed for irrigation in the district, which passes through parjang and analabereni primary health centres (phc), endemic for malaria. the water has been released only up to parjang (canal with water -cww) area during the end of 2004 and construction w ... | 2011 | 21602772 |
epidemiology of plasmodium vivax malaria in india. | historically, malaria in india was predominantly caused by plasmodium vivax, accounting for 53% of the estimated cases. after the spread of drug-resistant plasmodium falciparum in the 1990s, the prevalence of the two species remained equivalent at the national level for a decade. by 2014, the proportion of p. vivax has decreased to 34% nationally, but with high regional variation. in 2014, p. vivax accounted for around 380,000 malaria cases in india; almost a sixth of all p. vivax cases reported ... | 2016 | 27708188 |
