Concentrations of Chloroquine and Malaria Parasites in Blood in Nigerian Children
Mockenhaupt, Frank P., May, Jürgen, Bergqvist, Yngve, Ademowo, Olusegun G., Olumese, Peter E., Falusi, Adeyinka G., ...
Consumption of chloroquine (CQ) and subtherapeutic drug levels in blood are considered to be widespread in areas where malaria is endemic. A cross-sectional study was performed with 405 Nigerian...

The quality parameters for the detection of microsporidia in identical sets of 50 stool samples were determined for six laboratories where technicians used light microscopy and for six laboratories...
Marks, Florian, Meyer, Christian G., Sievertsen, Jürgen, Timmann, Christian, Evans, Jennifer, Horstmann, Rolf D., ...
Increasing resistance, recrudescences, and treatment failure have led to the replacement of chloroquine with the combination of pyrimethamine (PYR) and sulfadoxine (SDX) as the first-line...
