Evaluating artesunate monotherapy and dihydroartemisinin-piperaquine as potential antimalarial options for prevaccination radical cures during future malaria vaccine field efficacy trials.

Background: In malaria vaccine clinical trials, immune responses after vaccination may be compromised due to immunosuppression caused by concurrent Plasmodium falciparum infection. This has a direct effect on the protective efficacy of the vaccine being evaluated. Therefore, parasite clearance prior to vaccination is being considered.

[Epidemio-Clinical And Therapeutic Aspects Of Gigantomastia At Point G University Hospital].

Gigantomastia is a rare benign mastopathy of unknown aetiology. It usually occurs in women during puberty or during pregnancy. It is characterized by excessive breast growth, which is psychologically and physically disabling.

Metabolic modelling as a powerful tool to identify critical components of Pneumocystis growth medium.

Establishing suitable in vitro culture conditions for microorganisms is crucial for dissecting their biology and empowering potential applications. However, a significant number of bacterial and fungal species, including Pneumocystis jirovecii, remain unculturable, hampering research efforts. P.

Force of Infection (FOI) and Multiplicity of Infection (MOI) in Infected Children Aged 1.5-12 Years Living in the Malaria Endemic Area of Banfora, Burkina Faso.

The aim of this study was to explore molecular measures of malaria burden (FOI and MOI) in the context of seasonal malaria chemoprevention. We analyzed malaria cases collected as part of a longitudinal cohort study. The cohort included -negative children aged 1.

Malariometric Indices in the Context of Seasonal Malaria Chemoprevention in Children Aged 1.5 to 12 Years during the Period of High Malaria Transmission in the Suburban Area of Banfora, Burkina Faso.

Continuous monitoring of malaria epidemiology is needed in malaria-endemic settings to inform malaria control and elimination strategies. This study aimed to compare the malariometric indices between the under-fives and school-age children. We surveyed children aged 1.
