We assessed Plasmodium falciparum drug resistance markers in parasites collected 2012, 2013, and 2015 at 3 sites Uganda. The prevalence frequency of with mutations putative transporters previously associated to aminoquinolines, but increased sensitivity lumefantrine (pfcrt 76T; pfmdr1 86Y 1246Y), decreased markedly all sites. Antifolate were common, apparent emergence (pfdhfr 164L; pfdhps 581G) high-level resistance. K13 linked artemisinin uncommon did not increase over time. Changing...

Abstract Background Rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs) play a key role in malaria case management. The most widely used RDT identifies Plasmodium falciparum based on immunochromatographic recognition of P. histidine-rich protein 2 (PfHRP2). Deletion the paralogous pfhrp2 and pfhrp3 genes leads to false-negative PfHRP2-based RDTs, has been reported infections from South America Africa. However, identification pfhrp2/pfhrp3 deletions usually only failure amplify these using PCR, without...
