Contributing to Elimination of Cross-Border Malaria Through a Standardized Solution for Case Surveillance, Data Sharing, and Data Interpretation: Development of a Cross-Border Monitoring System.

Background: Cross-border malaria is a significant obstacle to achieving malaria control and elimination worldwide.

Objective: This study aimed to build a cross-border surveillance system that can make comparable and qualified data available to all parties involved in malaria control between French Guiana and Brazil.

Methods: Data reconciliation rules based on expert knowledge were defined and applied to the heterogeneous data provided by the existing malaria surveillance systems of both countries.

From global action against malaria to local issues: state of the art and perspectives of web platforms dealing with malaria information.

Background: Since prehistory to present times and despite a rough combat against it, malaria remains a concern for human beings. While evolutions of science and technology through times allowed for some infectious diseases eradication in the 20th century, malaria resists.

Objectives: This review aims at assessing how Internet and web technologies are used in fighting malaria.
