DOI: 10.1182/blood-2018-05-849307
Abstract: Platelets are understood to assist host innate immune responses against infection, although direct evidence of this function in any human disease, including malaria, is unknown. Here we characterized platelet-erythrocyte interactions by microscopy and flow cytometry… read more here.

DOI: 10.1186/s12936-018-2194-8
Abstract: BackgroundRoutine field diagnosis of malaria is a considerable challenge in rural and low resources endemic areas mainly due to lack of personnel, training and sample processing capacity. In addition, differential diagnosis of Plasmodium species has… read more here.

DOI: 10.1186/s12936-018-2588-7
Abstract: BackgroundMalaria in Nigeria is principally due to Plasmodium falciparum and, to a lesser extent to Plasmodium malariae and Plasmodium ovale. Plasmodium vivax is thought to be absent in Nigeria in particular and sub-Saharan Africa in… read more here.
