Background: Innovative approaches are needed to limit antimalarial resistance evolution. Understanding the role of intermittent preventive treatment in pregnancy (IPTp) on the selection for resistance and the impact such selection has on pregnancy outcomes can guide future interventions.
Methods: Plasmod...

Like most malaria-endemic countries, Mozambique relies on tabulation of confirmed malaria test–positive febrile patients to track incidence of malaria. However, this approach is potentially biased by incidental malaria parasitemia in patients with fever of another etiology. We compared pan-Plasmodium a...

The COVID-19 global pandemic reached South Africa (SA), Mozambique and Eswatini in March 2020.[1] Since then an exponential increase in SARS-CoV-2 infections has severely stretched SA’s healthcare system, especially in terms of in-hospital treatment of severe cases. The impact of COVID-19 in Mozambique...

Em Moçambique a malária é responsável por 60% de todas as admissões pediátricas, por 40% do total de consultas e ainda por 30% de todas as mortes registadas nos hospitais (2).Com vista a reverter esse cenário, o governo moçambicano, por intermédio do Programa Nacional de Combate à Malária (PCN...

There is a paucity of primary data to understand the overall pattern of disease and injuries
as well as related health-service utilization in resource-poor countries in Africa. To generate reliable and robust data describing the pattern of emergency presentations attributable to communicable disease (CD)...

Mozambique has historically been one of the countries with the highest malaria burden in the world. Starting in the 1960s, malaria control efforts were intensified in the southern region of the country, especially in Maputo city and Maputo province, to aid regional initiatives aimed to eliminate malaria ...
Malaria is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in Mozambique. We present a malaria early
warning system (MEWS) for Mozambique informed by seven years of weekly case reports of malaria in children under 5 years of age from 142 districts. A spatio-temporal model was developed based on explanatory c...
Background: Malaria continues to be a major public health concern in Africa. Approximately 3.2 billion people worldwide are still at risk of contracting malaria, and 80% of deaths caused by malaria are concentrated in only 15 countries, most of which are in Africa. These high-burden countries have achiev...

he resistance of Plasmodium falciparum to anti-malarial drugs continues to challenge malaria control. We assessed the therapeutic efficacy and safety of artemether-lumefantrine (AL), the first-line treatment of uncomplicated P. falciparum malaria, in children under five years of age in Mozambique. We con...
