Mechanistic within-host models of the asexual <i>Plasmodium falciparum</i> infection: a review and analytical assessment

2021-03-05

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Malaria blood-stage infection length and intensity are important drivers of disease and transmission; however, the underlying mechanisms of parasite growth and the host’s immune response during infection remain largely unknown. Over the last 30 years, several mechanistic mathematical models of malaria parasite within-host dynamics have been published and used in malaria transmission models. <h...
