Changes in susceptibility of Plasmodium falciparum to antimalarial drugs in Uganda over time: 2019–2024

Changes in susceptibility of Plasmodium falciparum to antimalarial drugs in Uganda over time: 2019–2024

Abstract The treatment and control of malaria in Africa is challenged by drug resistance. We characterized ex vivo susceptibilities to nine drugs of isolates collected from individuals presenting with uncomplicated falciparum malaria in eastern (2019-2024) and northern (2021-2024) Uganda and perform...
