Behavior and abundance of Anopheles darlingi in communities living in the Colombian Amazon riverside
(2019)
In the past few years, relative frequencies of malaria parasite species in communities living in the Colombian Amazon riverside have changed, being Plasmodium vivax (61.4%) and Plasmodium malariae (43.8%) the most frequent. ...
Sexual forms obtained in a continuous in vitro cultured Colombian strain of Plasmodium falciparum (FCB2)
(2020)
Background: The epidemiological control of malaria has been hampered by the appearance of parasite resistance to anti-malarial drugs and by the resistance of mosquito vectors to control measures. This has also been associated ...
Global, regional, and national levels of maternal mortality, 1990–2015: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2015
(2016)
Background Established in 2000, Millennium Development Goal 4 (MDG4) catalysed extraordinary political, financial, and social commitments to reduce under-5 mortality by two-thirds between 1990 and 2015. At the country ...
Plasmodium vivax Pv12 B-cell epitopes and HLA-DRβ1-dependent T-cell epitopes in vitro antigenicity
(2018)
Malaria is an infectious disease caused by parasites from the genus Plasmodium (P. falciparum and P. vivax are responsible for 90% of all clinical cases); it is widely distributed throughout the world’s tropical and ...
Plasmodium vivax in vitro continuous culture: The spoke in the wheel
(2018)
Understanding the life cycle of Plasmodium vivax is fundamental for developing strategies aimed at controlling and eliminating this parasitic species. Although advances in omic sciences and high-throughput techniques in ...
The in vitro antigenicity of Plasmodium vivax rhoptry neck protein 2 (PvRON2) B- and T-epitopes selected by HLA-DRB1 binding profile
(2018)
Malaria caused by Plasmodium vivax is a neglected disease which is responsible for the highest morbidity in both Americas and Asia. Despite continuous public health efforts to prevent malarial infection, an effective ...
The role of pi-interactions and hydrogen bonds in fully protective synthetic malaria vaccine development
(2017)
Analysis of ourPlasmodium falciparummalaria parasite peptides'1H-NMR database in the search for H-bonds andp-interactions led us to correlate their presence or absence with a peptide's particularimmunological behavior. It ...
Preliminary Evaluation of the Safety and Immunogenicity of an Antimalarial Vaccine Candidate Modified Peptide (IMPIPS) Mixture in a Murine Model
(2019)
Malaria continues being a high-impact disease regarding public health worldwide; the WHO report for malaria in 2018 estimated that 219 million cases occurred in 2017, mostly caused by the parasite Plasmodium falciparum. ...
Use of the industrial property system for new creations in Colombia: A departmental analysis (2000–2016)
(2018)
The purpose of this paper is to establish what was the spatial distribution in Colombia of the request and granting of new creations between 2000 and 2016? For this, the spatial autocorrelation is calculated up to order 7 ...
Global, regional, national, and selected subnational levels of stillbirths, neonatal, infant, and under-5 mortality, 1980–2015: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2015
(2016)
Background Established in 2000, Millennium Development Goal 4 (MDG4) catalysed extraordinary political, financial, and social commitments to reduce under-5 mortality by two-thirds between 1990 and 2015. At the country ...
