商品描述

This volume provides cutting-edge research from malaria parasitology and records the success story of disease control in China. The country, which was certified malaria-free by the World Health Organization in 2021, looks back on 70 years of effort and fruitful combat history.

Expert authors supply insights from Plasmodium morphology to the clinical picture of malaria, molecular and immunodiagnosis, as well as current treatment and resistance issues, making this book a valuable blueprint for further success stories. The present work makes a significant contribution to the Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 3, Good Health and Well-Being, with the aim to end malaria epidemics by 2030. Practical details of malaria elimination tools and strategies are completed by chapters on artificial intelligence in diagnosis and also traditional Chinese medicines for therapy.

All researchers involved in malaria control and elimination around the globe will benefit from the knowledge presented, including students, scientists, policy makers at various levels, and professionals in healthcare and antiparasitic drug discovery.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書提供了來自瘧疾寄生蟲學的前沿研究,並記錄了中國在疾病控制方面的成功故事。該國於2021年獲得世界衛生組織的瘧疾清除認證,回顧了70年的努力和豐碩的抗擊歷史。

專家作者提供了從< i>Plasmodium< /i>形態學到瘧疾臨床表現、分子和免疫診斷,以及當前治療和抗藥性問題的見解,使本書成為未來成功故事的寶貴藍圖。本書對可持續發展目標(SDG)3,即良好健康與福祉,做出了重要貢獻,旨在於2030年前結束瘧疾流行。關於瘧疾消除工具和策略的實用細節,還包括有關人工智慧在診斷中的應用以及傳統中藥療法的章節。

全球所有參與瘧疾控制和消除的研究人員,包括學生、科學家、各級政策制定者以及醫療保健和抗寄生蟲藥物發現的專業人士,都將從中受益。

作者簡介

​Prof. Dr. Heinz Mehlhorn has retired from Düsseldorf University and was President of the German and World Societies of Parasitology and Protozoology. He has published 80 parasitology books and is currently chairman of a German company, which has developed products against parasites.

Prof. Dr. Jian Li, PhD, is Professor and Master supervisor. His research interests encompass the epidemiology of antimalarial drug resistance, multi-omics (genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, immunomics, metabolomics, and the microbiome), the study of Plasmodium parasite- and schistosome parasitology, as well as rapid diagnosis using high throughput immunoscreening platforms and PCR-based tools and test strips.
Assoc. Prof. Kai Wu, Associate Professor, has been engaged in malaria control for approximately 20 years and has extensive experience in this respect in Wuhan City. He has handled nearly a thousand cases of malaria, is expert in microscopic examination of Plasmodium, malaria epidemiology including at molecular level, epidemic situation disposal, and antimalarial treatment plans. He has established a specimen bank of Plasmodium since 2010 including four human malaria parasites from more than 600 cases which provide rich morphological pictures. He has edited two medical monographs and published more than 20 papers related to malaria.
