Genetic profile of P. falciparum strains in villages around Soum irrigation Dam, Burkina Faso: insights from targeted sequencing of drug resistance markers in Pfkelch13, Pfubp1, Pfcoronin, Pfcrt, Pfmdr1, Pfdhps and Pfdhfr genes

Abstract Hydro-agricultural settings may sustain high and prolonged malaria transmission and increase antimalarial drug use, potentially intensifying selection pressure on P. falciparum strains. Molecular surveillance in these settings is essential to detect changes in markers as...

Participant attrition in a multi-regional population-based study in Africa: insights from the AWI-Gen study

Attrition in longitudinal studies, defined as the loss of participants over time, may threaten the validity of study results. This study examined patterns, magnitude, and risk factors for attrition in the AWI-Gen cohort. The study included 12,032 participants from six African sit...
