| quantitative assessment of malaria morbidity based on longitudinal data in 10 indian villages. | house-to-house visits were made at weekly intervals to investigate malaria morbidity. the survey covered 7337 individuals in 10 villages in jhansi district, uttar pradesh. incidence rates of 252 spells of sickness from fever and six symptomatic cases of malaria per 1000 population were recorded. the incidence rates of unhealthy periods due to fever, of people sick and of spells of sickness per person were significantly higher in males. morbidity from fever was highest in the 15-24 year age group ... | 1986 | 3534281 |
| field and laboratory comparative evaluation of rapid malaria diagnostic tests versus traditional and molecular techniques in india. | malaria presents a diagnostic challenge in most tropical countries. microscopy remains the gold standard for diagnosing malaria infections in clinical practice and research. however, microscopy is labour intensive, requires significant skills and time, which causes therapeutic delays. the objective of obtaining result quickly from the examination of blood samples from patients with suspected malaria is now made possible with the introduction of rapid malaria diagnostic tests (rdts). several rdts ... | 2010 | 20602766 |

| hidden burden of malaria in indian women. | malaria is endemic in india with an estimated 70-100 million cases each year (1.6-1.8 million reported by nvbdcp); of this 50-55% are plasmodium vivax and 45-50% plasmodium falciparum. a recent study on malaria in pregnancy reported from undivided madhya pradesh state (includes chhattisgarh state), that an estimated over 220,000 pregnant women contract malaria infection each year. malaria in pregnancy caused- abortions 34.5%; stillbirths 9%; and maternal deaths 0.45%. bulk of this tragic outcome ... | 2009 | 19995437 |
| fighting malaria in madhya pradesh (central india): are we losing the battle? | malaria control in madhya pradesh is complex because of vast tracts of forest with tribal settlement. fifty four million individuals of various ethnic origins, accounting for 8% of the total population of india, contributed 30% of total malaria cases, 60% of total falciparum cases and 50% of malaria deaths in the country. ambitious goals to control tribal malaria by launching "enhanced malaria control project" (emcp) by the national vector borne disease control programme (nvbdcp), with the world ... | 2009 | 19419588 |
| the usefulness of a new rapid diagnostic test, the first response malaria combo (pldh/hrp2) card test, for malaria diagnosis in the forested belt of central india. | malaria presents a diagnostic challenge in tribal belt of central india where two plasmodium species, plasmodium falciparum and plasmodium vivax, are prevalent. in these areas, rapid detection of the malaria parasites and early treatment of infection remain the most important goals of disease management. therefore, the usefulness of a new rapid diagnostic (rdt), the first response(r) combo malaria ag (pldh/hrp2) card test was assessed for differential diagnosis between p. falciparum with other p ... | 2008 | 18620560 |
| changing scenario of malaria in central india, the replacement of plasmodium vivax by plasmodium falciparum (1986-2000). | since 1986, we have been studying the changing epidemiology of malaria in a forest belt of mandla, which has the highest number of malaria cases in central india (madhya pradesh) to define the epidemiological characteristics of the infection with each plasmodium species in different seasons of the year. our long-term objective was to determine the dynamics of plasmodium vivax vs.p. falciparum infections. | 2004 | 14996366 |
| anopheline ecology and malaria transmission at a new irrigation project area (bargi dam) in jabalpur (central india). | anopheline ecology and malaria transmission were studied in a newly irrigated area of the bargi project, district jabalpur, madhya pradesh, central india. observations were made for 2 years (1993-95) in 10 villages along the bargi irrigation canal, which are situated between 44 km (head end of canal) and 78 km (tail end of canal) from the dam site. anopheles annularis was the predominant species in the head-end villages and its abundance was directly related to the opening of the canal, whereas ... | 2000 | 11198914 |
| field evaluation of the ict malaria p.f/p.v immunochromatographic test for diagnosis of plasmodium falciparum and p.vivax infection in forest villages of chhindwara, central india. | a rapid new immunochromatographic test (ict malaria p.f/p.v) for diagnosis of plasmodium falciparum and p.vivax was evaluated against thick blood smears in forest villages of chhindwara, madhya pradesh, where both plasmodium falciparum and p.vivax are prevalent. 344 symptomatic patients (gond ethnic tribe) in five villages were screened by field staff of the malaria research centre in october 1999. for p.falciparum, the ict was 97.5% sensitive and 88% specific, with a positive predictive value ( ... | 2000 | 11123823 |
| seasonality of plasmodium vivax and p. falciparum in tribal villages in central india (1987-1995). | microscopical examination of blood films produced from samples collected, over a 9-year period (1987-1995), from the inhabitants of four tribal villages of mandla district, madhya pradesh (central india) revealed that malaria was highly endemic and probably transmitted perennially. both plasmodium vivax and p. falciparum were prevalent in all age-groups but their prevalence was highly seasonal: longitudinal studies showed an autumn (october-november) peak for p. falciparum and a summer (april-ma ... | 2000 | 10827865 |
| population dynamics of anopheles culicifacies and malaria in the tribal area of central india. | a longitudinal study (1993-94) on malaria was conducted in dungaria, a typical forest fringe tribal village in mandla district of central india (madhya pradesh). our initial objective was to obtain in-depth baseline data on malaria transmission in the tribal village to elucidate the factors responsible for persistent malaria in the area and thereby to help in formulating an improved malaria control program. anopheles culicifacies giles was the predominant vector of malaria, although anopheles fl ... | 1999 | 10480116 |
| dynamics of malaria transmission in forested and deforested regions of mandla district, central india (madhya pradesh). | a longitudinal malaria study was undertaken in 1990-91 in 2 adjacent ecological zones in central india: villages in forest and villages away from the forest. the prevalence of anopheles species varied widely between the 2 ecological settings. in the villages in forest, anopheles culicifacies and an. fluviatilis were mainly exophilic, whereas in the villages away from forest, an. culicifacies was predominantly endophilic and an. fluviatilis was equally prevalent both indoors and outdoors. the sea ... | 1996 | 8827597 |
| malaria parasite density in pregnant women of district jabalpur, madhya pradesh. | twenty-two cases (nineteen plasmodium falciparum and three p. vivax) of severe malaria among 200 pregnant women from district jabalpur, m.p. were studied for malaria parasite density. almost all of them were found anaemic. the patients were treated with quinine/chloroquine intravenously but seventeen pf cases died within 96 h of admission in hospital. out of twenty-two, thirteen were primigravidae. | 1996 | 8690131 |
| socio-economic & household risk factors of malaria in tribal areas of madhya pradesh, central india. | malaria is a major public health problem in many states of the country, particularly, in madhya pradesh where both plasmodium vivax and p. falciparum are endemic. although many studies have been conducted to investigate risk factors for malaria, but only a few have examined household and socio-economic risk factors. the present study was, therefore, undertaken to explore the relationship of different socio-demographic, socio-economic and behavioural risk factors with malaria prevalence in tribal ... | 0 | 26139773 |
