Cross sectional study to determine chloroquine resistance among Plasmodium falciparum clinical isolates from Khartoum, Sudan

2018-02-20

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> Malaria continues to present a global health threat; the World Health Organization (WHO) reported 214 million cases of malaria by the year 2015 with a death rate of 438000. Sudan is endemic to malaria with over 95% of malaria cases due to Plasmodium falciparum . Chloroquine is a well-established drug in the treatment of P. falciparum malaria although its use has declined since its introduc...
