High prevalence of asymptomatic and sub-patent<i>Plasmodium falciparum</i>infections in Urban Bouaké, Côte d’Ivoire, but no<i>hrp2</i>deletions: Implications for Malaria Control

2023-11-09

Abstract excerpt

Asymptomatic Plasmodium falciparum infections are common in endemic settings, yet diagnosing these infections remains challenging because they are often below the limit of detection of conventional light microscopy (LM) or rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs). Deletions of the hrp2 / 3 gene, encoding the protein detected by the most sensitive class of RDTs, present a further threat. In this study, the prevalence of asymp...
