background: malaria is one of the most important parasitic diseases in tropical and temperate regions. the aim of this study was to determine the trend of malaria in mazandaran province, northern iran during 1997-2012. methods: this retrospective study was conducted from 1997 to 2012. the population's study was individuals who registered at health centers of mazandaran province. peripheral bloo...

in the course of serological and parasitological studies of malaria, 1,018 persons were examined. they were from four different areas (a, b, c and d) in the region of bandar abbas and 1-1ina), southern iran, where malaria is still endemic. for the serological examinations, the ifat was used with p. falciparum and p.vivax antigens. several fa-positive reactions were observed in young children, m...

introduction malaria is the most important parasitic infection, which is now spread all over the globe. malaria infections with more than two species, especially plasmodium falciparum and p. vivax, are common, but infections with p. malariae and p. falciparum are rare. discussion mixed malaria infection is not uncommon, and it needs to be diagnosed and treated effectively in order to control th...

Background: Malaria is still account for 200 million cases annually. Microscopy is the gold standard technique for malaria parasites detection. PCR-based techniques can detect malaria infections with high sensitivity. The study aimed to evaluate the sensitivity of microscopy technique in the detection of P. falciparum and P. vivax, using monoplex real-time PCR, Gezira State, Central Sudan. Met...

Mixed malaria infections, Plasmodium falciparum and P. vivax, are suspected to occur at a greater frequency than is detected by conventional light microscopy. In order to determine the year round pattern of transmission and the frequency of mixed infections in malaria endemic area, we carried out a prospective comparison of diagnosis by conventional light microscopy and nested PCR in Chahbahar ...

Abstract Background Malaria is an acute and chronic illness characterized by paroxysms of fever, chills, sweating, fatigue, anemia, and splenomegaly. Most malarial deaths occur in infants and young children.Anemia in malaria has diverse pathophysiologic mechanisms such as direct invasion of Red cells, In the following, we presented comparison of hematological aspects: children with Malaria an...

background: malaria is well known for its fatalities worldwide, plasmodium vivax and the plasmodium falciparum are the two important species of malaria reported from pakistan and creating lots of morbidities across the country. method: study was conducted to determine the surveillance of malaria in south punjab by microscopy and polymerase chain reaction (pcr). result : 40 samples out of 100 pa...
