Description
Ruimin Zhou and co-authors track drug resistance marks in malaria parasites from West Africa in a 2024 study. A drug pair used to shield people from malaria is losing force as parasite genes change. Samples came from cases imported to Henan Province, China, over a decade.
More than five hundred parasite samples were checked at two resistance genes. Mutant forms were near universal, with a few key changes at high rates in every country sampled. One strong resistance mark stayed rare overall but ran high in Liberia. A partly resistant pattern dominated, while the fully resistant pattern stayed uncommon.
