Molecular surveillance of Falciparum malaria in Rwanda: Shifts in parasite prevalence and risk factors between the 2014–15 and 2019–20 Rwanda Demographics and Health Surveys

2026-04-03

Abstract excerpt

Rwanda is a malaria endemic country and a focal point for emerging Plasmodium falciparum artemisinin partial resistance (ART-R). While Demographic and Health Surveys (DHS) provide both national and province-level representative data, malaria testing in Rwandan DHS (RDHS) studies has been limited to a subset of adult women and children under 5 years using RDT and/or microscopy. Recent work using ultra-sensitive qu...
