Asymptomatic Plasmodium falciparum (Pf) infections debilitate the health of affected population while representing a hidden source of parasite transmission that can compromise elimination efforts. The lack of consensus on the best strategy to deal with this asymptomatic reservoir is partly due to
In late 2019, an unidentified viral pneumonia was detected in Wuhan, China. Later, it was declared that it was pneumonia due to a new coronavirus. The World Health Organization (WHO) officially called it COVID-19 disease (Xie and Chen 2020).
Ivermectin is a broad-spectrum antiparasitic agent,
Rationale of the Study Currently no specific treatment is available against COVID-19 infection. Supportive treatment along with concentrated oxygen is the only mean of treatment. Researchers have already opened over 180 clinical trials of potential COVID-19 treatments for recruitment, and nearly 150

Novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 was first identified during the outbreak in Wuhan, China in December 2019 with the now resulting pandemic. Aggressive supportive care is the mainstay of treatment currently and rescue with lung protective mechanical ventilation is essential for survival in patients with
This study followed WHO recommendations for in vivo antimalarial efficacy trials.
The study population comprised children aged 6 to 59 months with microscopically confirmed acute uncomplicated malaria. Other inclusion criteria included body weight ≥5kg, the presence of fever (≥37.5°C axillary) or a
2.1 Study Rationale.
This Phase 1 study will be conducted to explore the dose regimen in humans and to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and toxicological effects of meplazumab in healthy subjects, thus providing a new macromolecule antibody drug for
Background
Febrile illnesses are amongst the most common reasons that parents seek non-routine healthcare for their children and a proportion progress to severe disease with substantial risk of mortality. Sepsis, defined as acute life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated host
General objective:
To assess the causes of acute undifferentiated febrile illness and evaluation of biomarkers for differentiation of bacterial and viral infections among outpatients at University of Gondar (UOG) Hospital, Northwest Ethiopia
Specific objectives
1. To determine the number of malaria
The goal of this project is to improve child survival in areas with high mortality rate.
The specific objectives are:
Primary:
1. To assess the effect on all-cause mortality up to 18 months of age of AZi administration at 6 weeks and 9 months of age alongside routine EPI immunisations
2. To
This is a randomized controlled trial to evaluate an experimental serological diagnostic technique intended to identify people at high risk of having dormant malaria parasites in their liver. The study is designed to show a superiority of SSAT vs. routine care for the prevention of recurrent P.
