Antibody Profiles to P. falciparum Antigens over Time Characterize Acute and Long-Term Malaria Exposure in an Area of Low and Unstable Transmission
(The American Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2020-12-02)
Prevalence and levels of antibodies to multiple Plasmodium falciparum antigens show promise as tools for estimating malaria exposure. In a highland area of Kenya with unstable transmission, we assessed the presence and ...
A mass insecticide-treated bed net distribution campaign reduced malaria risk on an individual but not population level in a highland epidemic-prone area of Kenya
(The American Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2020-12-02)
In epidemic-prone areas of the western highlands, the Kenya Ministry of Health conducted campaigns of indoor residual spraying (IRS) of households, followed by mass distribution of insecticide-treated bed nets (ITNs), as ...
Antibody Correlates of Protection from Clinical Plasmodium Falciparum Malaria in an Area of Low and Unstable Malaria Transmission
(The American Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2020-12-02)
Immune correlates of protection against clinical malaria are difficult to ascertain in low-transmission areas because of the limited number of malaria cases. We collected blood samples from 5,753 individuals in a Kenyan ...
