Pregnant women constitute a promising sentinel group for continuous monitoring of malaria transmission. To identify antibody signatures of recent Plasmodium falciparum exposure during pregnancy, we dissected IgG responses against VAR2CSA, the parasite antigen that mediates placental sequestration. We use...

Background: Poor knowledge on the afebrile Plasmodium falciparum biology limits elimination approaches to target asymptomatic malaria. Therefore, the association of parasite factors involved in cytoadhesion, parasite multiplication and gametocyte maturation with afebrile malaria was assessed.
Methods: Pl...

The effect of timing of exposure to first Plasmodium falciparum infections during early childhood on the induction of innate and adaptive cytokine responses and their contribution to the development of clinical malaria immunity is not well established. As part of a double-blind, randomized, placebo-contr...
Background: In a background of renewed calls for malaria eradication, several endemic countries in sub-Saharan Africa are contemplating malaria elimination nationally or sub-nationally. In Mozambique, a strategy to eliminate malaria in the south is underway in the context of low endemicity levels and cro...

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 ...
Instituto Nacional de Saúde (INS) em colaboração com o Programa Nacional de Controlo da Malária (PNCM) e o Instituto Nacional de Estatística (INE), realizou o Inquérito Nacional de Indicadores de Malária (IIM 2018). O IIM 2018 foi um inquérito de base populacional concebido para obter estimativas...

Insecticide resistance poses a serious threat to insecticide-based interventions in Africa. There is a fear that resistance escalation could jeopardize malaria control efforts. Monitoring of cases of aggravation of resistance intensity and its impact on the efficacy of control tools is crucial to predict...
Community health workers (CHWs) provide preventive care and integrated community case management (iCCM) to people with low healthcare access worldwide. CHW programmes have helped reduce mortality in
myriad countries, but little data on malaria supply chain management has been shared. This project evaluat...
