Background: National Malaria Control Programmes (NMCPs) currently make limited use of parasite genetic data. We have developed GenRe-Mekong, a platform for genetic surveillance of malaria in the Greater Mekong Subregion (GMS) that enables NMCPs to implement large-scale surveillance projects by integ...

Background: Health improvements realized through sanitation are likely achieved through high levels of facilities utilization by all household members. However, measurements of sanitation often rely on either the presence of latrines, which does not guarantee use, or respondent-reported utilization ...

Abstract Artemisinin resistant Plasmodium falciparum is advancing across Southeast Asia in a soft selective sweep involving at least 20 independent kelch13 mutations. In a large global survey, we find that kelch13 mutations which cause resistance in Southeast Asia are present at low frequency in Afr...

BACKGROUND: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a global public health concern, particularly prevalent in low- and middle-income countries like India. Glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) is the gold-standard marker for assessing long-term glycemic control. Red cell distribution width (RDW), an index routinel...
