Epidemiological Insights and Duffy Binding Protein Evolution of <i>Plasmodium vivax</i> in Duffy-Negative Cameroonians

2025-05-29

Abstract excerpt

Malaria remains a major public health concern in sub-Saharan Africa, and P. vivax is emerging in regions with predominantly Duffy-negative populations. This study investigated P. vivax prevalence and genetic diversity across three ecological zones in Cameroon. P. vivax was detected in ∼11% of febrile patients and 5.5% of asymptomatic individuals, all are Duffy-negatives. Clinical infections exhibited higher parasi...
