| age-specific malaria seroprevalence rates: a cross-sectional analysis of malaria transmission in the ouest and sud-est departments of haiti. | malaria transmission continues to occur in haiti, with 25,423 confirmed cases of plasmodium falciparum and 161,236 suspected infections reported in 2012. at low prevalence levels, passive surveillance measures, which rely primarily on reports from health systems, becomes less appropriate for capturing annual malaria incidence. to improve understanding of malaria transmission in haiti, participants from the ouest and sud-est departments were screened using a highly sensitive enzyme-linked immunos ... | 2014 | 25218803 |
| t cell subtypes and reciprocal inflammatory mediator expression differentiate p. falciparum memory recall responses in asymptomatic and symptomatic malaria patients in southeastern haiti. | asymptomatic plasmodium falciparum infection is responsible for maintaining malarial disease within human populations in low transmission countries such as haiti. investigating differential host immune responses to the parasite as a potential underlying mechanism could help provide insight into this highly complex phenomenon and possibly identify asymptomatic individuals. we performed a cross-sectional analysis of individuals who were diagnosed with malaria in sud-est, haiti by comparing the cel ... | 2017 | 28369062 |
