World Malaria Report 2009

Autor: World Health Organization

Número de Páginas: 201

"Half of the world's population is at risk of malaria, and an estimated 243 million cases led to nearly 863 000 deaths in 2008. The advent of long-lasting insecticidal nets and artemisinin-based combination therapy, plus a revival of support for indoor residual spraying of insecticide, presents a new opportunity for large-scale malaria control. The World malaria report 2009 describes the global distribution of cases and deaths, how WHO-recommended control strategies have been adopted and implemented in endemic countries, sources of funding for malaria control, and recent evidence that prevention and treatment can alleviate the burden of disease."--Publisher's description.

Malaria Methods and Protocols

Autor: Denise L. Doolan

Número de Páginas: 606

The Plasmodium spp. parasite was identified as the causative agent of malaria in 1880, and the mosquito was identified as the vector in 1897. Despite subsequent efforts focused on the epidemiology, cell biology, immunology, molecular biology, and clinical manifestations of malaria and the Plasmodium parasite, there is still no licensed vaccine for the prevention of malaria. Physical barriers (bed nets, window screens) and chemical prevention methods (insecticides and mosquito repellents) intended to interfere with the transmission of the disease are not highly effective, and the profile of resistance of the parasite to chemoprophylactic and chemotherapeutic agents is increasing. The dawn of the new millennium has seen a resurgence of interest in the disease by government and philanthropic organizations, but we are still faced with compl- ities of the parasite, the host, and the vector, and the interactions among them. Malaria Methods and Protocols offers a comprehensive collection of protocols describing conventional and state-of-the-art techniques for the study of malaria, as well as associated theory and potential problems, written by experts in the field. The major themes...

Medical Geography of Malaria in Madhya Pradesh

Autor: Sarojini Pacholi

Número de Páginas: 176

Medical Geography is a scientific discipline which links medicine with Geography. It is concerned with systematic study of spatial distribution of diseases in the backdrop of geographical conditions in order to find out answers to â€˜whereâ€™ and â€˜whyâ€™ of diseases. In India no disease has taken toll of such a large number of human beings as Malaria. Moreover, it steps the vitality of millions of people and forces them towards poverty.

Regional Guidelines for the Management of Severe Falciparum Malaria in Large Hospitals

Autor: Who Regional Office For South-east Asia

Número de Páginas: 60

In view of heavy burden of malaria and prevalence of drug resistant falciparum malaria in the South-East Asia Region these two parallel guidelines one for small hospitals and another one for large hospitals were developed for use by medical personnel who treat severe malaria patients referred from lower-level health facilities. These guidelines were developed by the WHO Regional Office for South-East Asia and the WHO Collaborating Centre for the Clinical Management of Malaria Faculty of Tropical Medicine Mahidol University Thailand. They are based on a review of current evidence existing WHO guidelines and experience in the management of malaria in the Region.

The fifth Millennium Development target of reducing infant mortality by two thirds by the year 2015 can only be achieved if mortality due to malaria is significantly reduced.This book addresses this issue by developing an innovative methodology and modeling used to assess local scale malaria risk using environmental factors. The detailed description of this pioneering methodology enables scientists to replicate the study elsewhere in different settings.

Guidelines for the Treatment of Malaria

Autor: World Health Organization

Número de Páginas: 208

"Malaria case management remains a vital component of the malaria control strategies. This entails early diagnosis and prompt treatment with effective antimalarial medicines. The WHO Guidelines for the treatment of malaria, which were first published in 2006, provide global, evidence-based recommendations on the case management of malaria, targeted mainly at policy-makers at country level, providing a framework for the development of specific and more detailed national treatment protocols that take into account local antimalarial drug resistance patterns and health service capacity in the country. This second edition of the guidelines revisits the recommendations based on updated evidence. The same presentation format from the first edition has been mainly kept based on feedback from the end-users." - p. ix

Progress in Malaria Research

Autor: Lee O. Koning

Número de Páginas: 252

Malaria is an infectious disease that is widespread in tropical and subtropical regions. It infects between 300 and 500 million people every year and causes between one and three million deaths annually, mostly among young children in Sub-Saharan Africa. Malaria is not just a disease commonly associated with poverty, but is also a cause of poverty and a major hindrance to economic development. Malaria is one of the most common infectious diseases and an enormous public health problem. The disease is caused by protozoan parasites of the genus Plasmodium. The most serious forms of the disease are caused by Plasmodium falciparum and Plasmodium vivax, but other related species (Plasmodium ovale and Plasmodium malariae) can also infect humans. This group of human-pathogenic Plasmodium species are usually referred to as malaria parasites. This book presents leading-edge new research in this field.

Environmental Change and Malaria Risk

Número de Páginas: 172

This book reflects the discussions of leading scientists on the potential impact of global change on malaria and other vector-borne diseases. The book makes clear that environmental change, more than climate change, is the driving force behind the observed changes in disease risk. The rapid spread of blue tongue, another highly infectious vector-borne disease, illustrates what might happen if the world looks on unguarded.

Entomological Field Techniques for Malaria Control: Learner's guide

Autor: World Health Organization

Número de Páginas: 84

A practical training module on entomological field techniques for malaria control presented in two separately bound parts. The first, addressed to learners, provides step-by-step instructions in the field, and work needed to secure comprehensive information about the mosquito population in a given area. Information is presented in a series of 13 illustrated learning units, moving from the simplest collecting techniques that can be practiced in the laboratory to more sophisticated procedures that must be undertaken in the field. Techniques covered include hand collection methods, indoor collection after pyrethrin spraying, direct catches of mosquitoes from animal and human bait, and collection of larvae and pupae from breeding sites. Other units help readers learn how to identify species at all stages of the life cycle, keep accurate records, and preserve and transport specimens under strictly controlled conditions. The need to gain the cooperation of the community is also thoroughly explained. The second part, addressed to tutors, offers practical advice on the organization and running of training courses. Like the first part, the Tutor's Guide is divided into a series of learning ...
