High prevalence of <i>Plasmodium malariae</i> and <i>Plasmodium ovale</i> in co-infections with <i>Plasmodium falciparum</i> in asymptomatic malaria parasite carriers in Southwest Nigeria

2021-01-15

Abstract excerpt

Asymptomatic malaria parasite carriers do not seek anti-malarial treatment and may constitute a silent infectious reservoir. In order to assess the level of asymptomatic and symptomatic carriage amongst adolescents in a highly endemic area, and to identify the risk factors associated with such carriage, we conducted a cross sectional survey of 1032 adolescents (ages 10-19) from eight schools located in Ibadan, Sou...
