| susceptibility of macaca fascicularis monkeys from mauritius to different species of plasmodium. | macaca fascicularis monkeys from mauritius were shown to be susceptible via sporozoite inoculation to 7 species of plasmodium (p. fragile, p. coatneyi, p. gonderi, p. inui, p. cynomolgi, p. knowlesi, and p. fieldi), indigenous to macaques in southeastern asia. four monkeys were sequentially infected with different species of plasmodium to determine maximum and course of parasitemia. in 2 nonsplenectomized monkeys, p. fragile developed maximum parasite counts of only 134 and 155/microliters. for ... | 1992 | 1597796 |
| malaria transmission rates estimated from serological data. | a mathematical model was used to estimate malaria transmission rates based on serological data. the model is minimally stochastic and assumes an age-dependent force of infection for malaria. the transmission rates estimated were applied to a simple compartmental model in order to mimic the malaria transmission. the model has shown a good retrieving capacity for serological and parasite prevalence data. | 1993 | 8270011 |
| [epidemiology and prevention of malaria in the southwestern islands of the indian ocean]. | malaria epidemiology differs greatly in the geographically close islands of the southwestern indian ocean. in madagascar and the comoros union malaria is still a major public health problem. in mayotte indigenous transmission resumed in 1995 and is currently high in some communities. in the mascarene islands (reunion and mauritius), indigenous transmission has been eradicated (reunion) or become rare (mauritius). the seychelles islands are malaria-free since local conditions are unfavorable for ... | 2006 | 16924826 |
