The major growth in point-of-care malaria diagnosis over the past decade has been based
on immunochromatographic malaria rapid diagnostic tests (mRDTs), which generally detect …

Background PfHRP2-based rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs), based on the recognition of the
Plasmodium falciparum histidine-rich protein 2, are currently the most used tests in malaria …

A major obstacle to malaria elimination is the great capacity of the parasite and vector
populations to evolve in response to malaria control interventions. The widespread use of …

False-negative results for Plasmodium falciparum histidine-rich protein (HRP) 2–based
rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs) are increasing in Eritrea. We investigated HRP gene 2/3 …

The recent COVID-19 pandemic has profoundly impacted global malaria elimination
programs, resulting in a sharp increase in malaria morbidity and mortality. To reduce this …

The global burden of malaria seems unabated. Africa carries the greatest burden accounting
for over 95% of the annual cases of malaria. For the vision of a world free of malaria by …

Background With the documentation of cases of falciparum malaria negative by rapid
diagnostic tests (RDT), though at low frequency from natural isolates in a small pocket of …

Background The usefulness of histidine-rich protein-2/3 (HRP2/3)-based rapid diagnostic
tests of malaria due to Plasmodium falciparum has been threatened by the appearance of …

Background Malaria rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs) have greatly improved access to
diagnosis in endemic countries. Most RDTs detect Plasmodium falciparum histidine-rich …

Malaria rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs) have had an enormous global impact which
