Intermittent treatment for malaria and anaemia control at time of routine vaccinations in Tanzania infants: a randomised, placebo-controlled trial (Publications)
BACKGROUND: Clinical malaria and severe anaemia are major causes of paediatric hospital admission and death in many malaria-endemic settings. In the absence of an effective and affordable vaccine, control [...] were not affected by the intervention. INTERPRETATION: This new approach to malaria control reduced the rate of clinical malaria and severe anaemia by delivering an available and affordable drug through [...] assess the efficacy and safety of intermittent sulphadoxine-pyrimethamine...
Towards a comprehensive simulation model of malaria epidemiology and control (Publications)
SUMMARYPlanning of the control of Plasmodium falciparum malaria leads to a need for models of malaria epidemiology that provide realistic quantitative prediction of likely epidemiological outcomes of a [...] dynamics, limit the applicability of conventional deterministic malaria models. We use individual-based stochastic simulations of malaria epidemiology to predict the impacts of interventions on infection
