| cloning and characterization of an abundant plasmodium knowlesi antigen which cross reacts with gambian sera. | a 110 kda plasmodium knowlesi antigen, termed pk110, has been identified on the basis of messenger rna abundance in late schizonts. most plasmodium genes previously cloned have been identified by immune sera, which have selected immunodominant antigens composed of repeating epitopes. although pk110 was not selected by immune sera, it also contains amino acid repeats, indicating that this structure may be a common feature of malarial proteins. determination of 296 codons in the pk110 gene reveale ... | 1987 | 2444886 |

| rapid immunochromatographic malarial antigen detection unreliable for detecting plasmodium malariae and plasmodium ovale. | in order to determine the reliability of two commercial tests for the rapid detection of plasmodial antigen in cases of infection with plasmodium ovale and plasmodium malariae, the products were evaluated in four centers and a search of the relevant literature was performed. the results of the present and previous studies were compared. with overall sensitivities ranging between 18.8% and 47.6% for plasmodium malariae and between 20% and 31.3% for plasmodium ovale, it is evident that neither tes ... | 2002 | 12461593 |
| plasmodium ovale malaria acquired in central spain. | we describe a case of locally acquired plasmodium ovale malaria in spain. the patient was a spanish woman who had never traveled out of spain and had no other risk factors for malaria. because patients with malaria may never have visited endemic areas, occasional transmission of malaria to european hosts is a diagnostic and clinical challenge. | 2002 | 12498674 |
| plasmodium ovale in a highly malaria endemic area of senegal. | during 4 months, from june to september 1990, the population of dielmo village, senegal, an area of intense and perennial malaria transmission, was enrolled in a follow-up study including daily clinical surveillance and bi-weekly malaria parasitaemia monitoring. thick blood film examinations indicated that 48.5% of children (49/101) and 32.4% of adults (34/105) were infected at least once by plasmodium ovale during the study period; 148 distinct episodes of patent parasitaemia were observed, wit ... | 1998 | 9861368 |

| multispecies plasmodium infections of humans. | we analyzed point-prevalence data from 19 recent studies of human populations in which either plasmodium ovale or plasmodium vivax co-occur with plasmodium falciparum and plasmodium malariae. although the only statistical interactions among, sympatric congeners are pairwise, the frequencies of mixed-species infections relative to standard hypotheses of species sampling independence show no strong relation to overall malaria prevalence. the striking difference between the p. falciparum-p. malaria ... | 1999 | 10207356 |
| cross-species regulation of plasmodium parasitemia in semi-immune children from papua new guinea. | malariologists have long been fascinated by the question of whether plasmodium spp. interact in the human host. the first genetic study of the longitudinal dynamics of multiple plasmodium spp. and genotypes in humans has been completed in papua new guinea, where all four plasmodium spp. that infect humans are present. the broad implications of the data from this study are covered here and they show that the total parasite density of plasmodium species oscillates around a threshold and that peaks ... | 2003 | 12798085 |
| use of a rapid, single-round, multiplex pcr to detect malarial parasites and identify the species present. | a new, rapid assay, based on a single-round, multiplex pcr, can be used to detect plasmodium falciparum, p. vivax, p. malariae or p. ovale in human blood. the pcr, which targets the conserved 18s small-subunit rna genes of the parasites, not only permits a malarial infection to be detected but also allows each plasmodium species present to be identified, even in cases of mixed infection. | 2003 | 12803868 |
| malaria prevention in travelers. | the prevention of malaria in travelers is becoming a more challenging clinical and public health problem because of the global development of drug-resistant plasmodium strains of malaria and the increasing popularity of travel to exotic locales. travelers can reduce their risk of acquiring malaria by using bed netting, wearing proper clothing and applying an insect repellent that contains n,n-diethyl-meta-toluamide. chloroquine, once the standard agent for weekly malaria prophylaxis, is no longe ... | 1999 | 10323359 |
