| common asymptomatic and submicroscopic malaria infections in western thailand revealed in longitudinal molecular and serological studies: a challenge to malaria elimination. | despite largely successful control efforts, malaria remains a significant public health problem in thailand. based on microscopy, the northwestern province of tak, once thailand's highest burden area, is now considered a low-transmission region. however, microscopy is insensitive to detect low-level parasitaemia, causing gross underestimation of parasite prevalence in areas where most infections are subpatent. the objective of this study was to assess the current epidemiology of malaria prevalen ... | 2016 | 27333893 |
