| epidemiology of malaria in a hypoendemic brazilian amazon migrant population: a cohort study. | the present study describes aspects of the epidemiology of malaria in a migrant population living in a hypoendemic area in brazil using an open cohort study design. rural settlement residents in leonislândia, peixoto de azevedo, mato grosso, brazil were followed from september 1996 to april 1997. at baseline, an interview and malaria diagnoses were carried out and spleen size was measured. incident cases were detected through follow-up visits and laboratory records. cox regression was used to as ... | 2004 | 15031509 |
| spatial analysis for stratification of priority malaria control areas, mato grosso state, brazil. | the goal of this study was to stratify priority areas for malaria control in the state of mato grosso, brazil, based on spatial analysis. the variables used were: annual parasite index (api), plasmodium falciparum/plasmodium vivax ratio, population variation, number of families settled, and percent of deforested area. the moran's i and local moran test were applied, visualized with the box map and moran map, for 1986- 1991, 1992-1997, and 1998-2003. box map identified areas with high, low, and i ... | 2007 | 17486233 |

| spatial patterns of malaria in a land reform colonization project, juruena municipality, mato grosso, brazil. | in brazil, 99% of malaria cases are concentrated in the amazon, and malaria's spatial distribution is commonly associated with socio-environmental conditions on a fine landscape scale. in this study, the spatial patterns of malaria and its determinants in a rural settlement of the brazilian agricultural reform programme called "vale do amanhecer" in the northern mato grosso state were analysed. | 2011 | 21703018 |
| high prevalence of plamodium malariae infections in a brazilian amazon endemic area (apiacás-mato grosso state) as detected by polymerase chain reaction. | plasmodium malariae is commonly confounded with plasmodium vivax at the microscopic examination of thick blood smear. in the present study, we used a nested pcr assay to amplify a species-specific sequence of the 18s ssu rrna gene of plasmodium in blood samples of 497 individuals living in an endemic region of the brazilian amazon basin. we have found that, while the microscopic examination of thick blood smears showed a p. malariae prevalence of 1.2% (6 out of 497), the nested pcr revealed 11.9 ... | 2004 | 14739024 |
| prevalence and level of antibodies to the circumsporozoite protein of human malaria parasites in five states of the amazon region of brazil. | the aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of malaria infection and antibodies against the repetitive epitopes of the circumsporozoite (cs) proteins of plasmodium falciparum, p. malariae, p. vivax vk210, p. vivax vk247, and p. vivax-like in individuals living in the states of rondônia, pará, mato grosso, amazonas, and acre. active malaria transmission was occurring in all studied sites, except in acre. p. falciparum was the predominant species in pará and rondônia and p. vivax in mato ... | 2007 | 17568943 |
