Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: At present, the main risk of transfusion-transmitted malaria (TTM) in nonendemic countries is chronic, asymptomatic immigrants from malaria-endemic areas. Semi-immune donors may carry undetected parasitemia. This study examines Plasmodium infection in at-risk blood donors in Northern Italy. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS: Plasma samples from 97 candidate donors and 80 controls were tested for malarial...
