Abstract Background Mining in the Amazon exposes gold miners to various diseases, including malaria, whose control is still a major challenge. The environment of mines contributes proliferation vector mosquitoes and precarious housing conditions facilitate transmission disease. Understanding miners’ perceptions essential for formulation strategies fight malaria. A qualitative study was carried out municipality Calçoene, state Amapá, Brazilian adjointining Oiapoque, that border area with...
Abstract The relationship between deforestation and malaria is a spatiotemporal process of variation in Plasmodium incidence human-dominated Amazonian rural environments. present study aimed to assess the underlying mechanisms malarial exposure risk at fine scale 5-km 2 sites across Brazilian Amazon, using field-collected data with longitudinal spatiotemporally structured approach. Anopheline mosquitoes were sampled from 80 investigate infection rate mosquito communities estimate landscapes....
Since 2015, the Global Technical Strategy (GTS) for Malaria 2016-2030 has been adopted by World Health Organization (WHO) as a comprehensive framework to accelerate progress malaria elimination in endemic countries. This strategy sets target of reducing global incidence and mortality rates 90% 2030. Here it is sought evaluate Brazil's achievements towards reaching WHO GTS milestone Considering total number new cases main research question is: will Brazil reach goal 2030? Analytical...
Abstract Background Public health initiatives for improving adherence to primaquine based regimens and enhancing effective pharmacovigilance are needed support the efforts malaria elimination in real world conditions. Methods A multicomponent patient-oriented strategy using a Smart Safety Surveillance (3S) approach including: (1) educational materials treatment counselling identification of warning symptoms haemolytic anaemia; (2) an mHealth component Short Message Service (SMS) reminders...
Abstract Background Relapses in vivax malaria have posed great challenges for control, and they also account a proportion of reported cases. Knowing the real effectiveness 7-day primaquine (PQ) scheme is crucial order to evaluate not only cost-effectiveness implementing new anti-hypnozoite drugs, but how health education strategies can guarantee better compliance be reinforced. This study aimed effect daily treatment with chloroquine PQ supervised by workers versus prescription without...
Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency testing is not routinely performed before primaquine treatment in most
Background Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency greatly hinders Plasmodium vivax malaria radical cure and further elimination due to 8-aminoquinolines-associated hemolysis. Although the deleterious health effects of primaquine in G6PD deficient individuals have been known for over 50 years, testing is not routinely performed before treatment most P . endemic areas. Method/Principal findings The qualitative CareStart screening test was implemented 12 units (MTUs) municipality...
Abstract Background Health information systems (HIS) are a pivotal element in epidemiological surveillance. In Brazil, malaria persists as public health challenge, with 99% of its occurrences concentrated the Amazon region, where cases reported through HIS Sivep-Malaria. Recent technological advancements indicate that case notifications can be expedited more efficient broader coverage. The objective this study is to analyse opportunities for notification within Sivep-Malaria and explore...
Background: Malaria is one of the leading causes morbidity worldwide, and patient adherence to prescribed antimalarials essential for effective treatment. Methods: This cross-sectional study, with in-depth telephone interviews, analyzed participants’ perceptions short message service (SMS) in Results: Five thematic categories emerged: decreased forgetfulness, novelty tool, easy-to-understand language, impact SMS messages during treatment, suggestions improvement complaints. Conclusions:...
In the past decade, Brazil has achieved considerable progress in malaria control, with 140 000 cases reported 2015, lowest numbers since 1980.1Siqueira AM Mesones-Lapouble O Marchesini P et al.Plasmodium vivax landscape Brazil: scenario and challenges.Am J Trop Med Hyg. 2016; 95: 87-96Crossref PubMed Scopus (36) Google Scholar Part of this success been attributed to establishment a large network around 3000 diagnostic treatment units for malaria.1Siqueira A remarkable feature is that these...
This study quantified parasitoid occurrence on five lepidopteran caterpillars species that use Caryocar brasiliense as host plant, trying to verify if there was a direct relationship between abundance and the proportion of parasitism; leaf shelters served cues or protection from parasitoids; size influenced parasitism, attacks by Diptera were more frequent than Hymenoptera. Searches for external folivorous carried out in an area cerrado sensu stricto, July/2003 June/2004. Caterpillars...
We sampled Inga Busk species caterpillars weekly in the cerrado on 15 plants of Diospyros burchellii Hern. (Ebenaceae) from January 2002 to December 2003, 30 Caryocar brasiliense (Caryocaraceae) July 2003 June 2004, and since 1991 several other plant species. In total we found host plants. Nine were very rare, with only one five adults reared. The six occurred throughout year, higher abundance during dry season, May July, coinciding overall peaks caterpillar cerrado. Caterpillars genus build...

A malária é uma doença infecciosa parasitária, não contagiosa, febril, de evolução potencialmente grave, se diagnosticada oportunamente e tratada adequadamente. Mais 40% da população mundial vive em áreas endêmicas para a malária, o continente Africano responsável por 95% dos casos 96% das mortes pela doença. O Programa Global Malária Organização Mundial Saúde propôs metas desafiadoras eliminação, incluindo redução pelo menos 90% até 2030. Os recursos combate à envolvem financiamento...
