What is Malaria?What is Malaria?
• Vector-borne infectious disease caused by single-celled protozoan parasites of the genus Plasmodium.
• Transmit by bite from an infective female Anopheles mosquito.
• Widespread in tropical and subtropical regions.
• Probably one of the oldest diseases known to mankind that has had profound impact on our history.

Alternative names: oQuartan malariaoFalciparum malariaoBlackwater feveroTertian malaria
At risk for malaria: 40% of the world’s population40% of the world’s population
Female Anopheles are:Anthropophilic : from humans Zoophilic : from animals Endophagic : prefer to bite indoors Exophagic : prefer outdoor biting

What causes Malaria?What causes Malaria?
• Malaria is caused by an infection by one of four single celled Plasmodia species, they are: falciparum, vivax, malariae, and ovale.
The most dangerous of the four is P.falciparum• In the human body, the parasites multiply in the liver, and
then infect red blood cells. • Transmission of Malaria do not occur <160C and >330C.• Malaria is fourth leading cause of death• In Pakistan majorly infectious species of plasmodium are:
P. vivax 70% P. falciparum 30%

AN ANCIENT DISEASE – AN ANCIENT DISEASE – The History Of MalariaThe History Of Malaria
Malaria parasites have been with us since the dawn of time. They probably originated in Africa (along with mankind), and fossils of mosquitoes up to 30 million years old, show that the malaria vector, the malaria mosquito, was present well before the earliest history.

o Pregnant women have increased susceptibility to P. falciparum malaria; in malaria-endemic countries, P. falciparum contributes to 8-14% of low birth weight, which in turn decreases the chance of a baby’s survival.
o Malarial parasite found mostly in warmer climates, malaria breeds where there is an abundance of humidity and rain.
o Biologic characteristics and behavioral traits can influence an individual's risk of developing malaria and, on a larger scale, the intensity of transmission in a population.
o An experienced laboratory technician or pathologist can distinguish between P. falciparum, P. vivax, P. malariae and P. ovale based on the appearance of the parasites and infected blood cells. Under the microscope, P. knowlesi can resemble either P. falciparum or P. malariae. Increasingly reference diagnostic tools like PCR are employed to confirm malaria infection and to determine definitively which species are involved.

Appearance of Common Symtoms..
The common first symptoms – fever, headache, chills and vomiting – usually appear 10 to 15 days after a person is infected. If not treated promptly with
effective medicines, malaria can cause severe illness and is often fatal.Clinical eventsClinical events
The symptoms often associated with malaria are due to bursting red blood cells and clogged capillaries of major organs. Infection occurs when an infected
anopheles mosquito feeds on an individual releasing sporozites into the blood stream. Mosquitos can carry more than one species and thus can infect peoples
with more than one species.Periodicity CluesPeriodicity Clues
Periodicity can be clue in Diagnosis and species relation:¤Malaria tertiana: 48h between fevers (P. vivax and ovale)
¤Malaria quartana: 72h between fevers (P. malariae) ¤Malaria tropica: Irregular high fever (P. falciparum)

ANTIMALARIAL DRUGSANTIMALARIAL DRUGS
• Antimalarial drugs are used for the treatment and prevention of malaria infection.
• Most antimalarial drugs target the erythrocytic stage of malaria infection, which is the phase of infection that causes symptomatic illness.
• Treatment of the acute blood stage infection is necessary for malaria caused by all malaria species.
• For infection due to Plasmodium ovale or P. vivax, terminal prophylaxis is required with a drug active against hypnozoites (which can remain dormant in the liver for months -- and occasionally years -- after the initial infection.

• Include chloroquine, amodiaquine, quinine, quinidine, mefloquine, primaquine, lumefantrine and halofantrine. • These drugs have activity against the
erythrocytic stage of infection; primaquine also kills intrahepatic forms and gametocytes. • The drugs act by accumulating in the parasite
food vacuole and forming a complex with heme that prevents crystallization in the plasmodium food vacuole. • Heme polymerase activity is inhibited, resulting
in accumulation of cytotoxic free heme.

8-aminoquinolines
• Primaquine: Primaquine: is the only 8-aminoquinoline in clinical use. • Largely used to prevent relapse of P. ovale and P. vivax
malaria by eliminating dormant hypnozoites, and it also has activity against the pre-erythrocytic stage and gametocytes of P. falciparum.
• Mechanism Of Action : Mechanism Of Action : Eliminates the primary tissue exoerythrocytic forms of P. falciparum; disrupts mitochondria and binds to DNA.

Dosing: Dosing: ADULTS
The CDC recommends screening for G6PD deficiency prior to initiating treatment with primaquine. (15 mg)
• It can cause hemolytic anemia in those with glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency. Therefore, patients should receive primaquine only if G6PD deficiency has been excluded.

Sulfadoxine and pyrimethamineSulfadoxine and pyrimethamine
•Mechanism Of Action : Mechanism Of Action : Sulfadoxine interferes with bacterial folic acid synthesis and growth via competitive inhibition of para-aminiobenzoic acid; pyrimethamine inhibits microbial dihydrofolate reductase, resulting in inhibition of tetrahydrofolic acid synthesis
•Use: Use: Treatment of Plasmodium falciparum malaria in patients in whom chloroquine resistance is suspected.

• Dose:Dose:• Adults - Adults - Treatment of acute malaria attacks: Oral: A single dose of
the following number of Fansidar® tablets is used in sequence with quinine or alone: 3 tablets
• Malaria prophylaxis: Malaria prophylaxis: A single dose should be carried for self-treatment in the event of febrile illness when medical attention is not immediately available: Oral: 3 tablets
• Adverse Effects:Adverse Effects:• Mild adverse effects include gastrointestinal upset and headache.
Mild bone marrow suppression may occur, and sulfadoxine can precipitate hemolysis in patients with G6PD deficiency.

• Tetracycline, doxycycline, and clindamycin target prokaryotic protein synthesis. • In malaria parasites, these drugs appear to
target the apicoplast, an organelle derived from prokaryotic ancestors. • They have relatively slow antimalarial activity
because they exert their toxic effects in the subsequent cycle of cell division. • They are typically paired with fast-acting
antimalarials (usually quinine). • Doxycycline has a longer half life than
tetracycline so is used more commonly.

• Adverse effects Adverse effects are common with the tetracyclines • Gastrointestinal discomfort and candidiasis are
the most frequent complaints. • Doxycycline therapy also poses a risk of
esophageal ulceration.

• The artemisinins are derived from the leaves of the Chinese sweet wormwood plant, Artemisia annua. • They have been used in China for the treatment
of malaria for over 2000 years and came to attention outside of China in the 1970s and 1980s.

• Mechanism of Action: Mechanism of Action: Artemisinins act by binding iron, breaking down peroxide bridges leading to the generation of free radicals that damage parasite proteins.
• They act rapidly, killing blood stages of all Plasmodium species and reducing the parasite biomass.
• Artemisinins have the fastest parasite clearance times of any antimalarial.
• Artemisinins are active against gametocytes, the parasite form that is infectious to mosquitoes.
• Intravenous artesunate is used for the treatment of severe malaria.

• Dosing: Dosing: If used alone (via the parenteral, rectal or oral route), artesunate must be administered for 5-7 days.
• Artemisinins are generally well tolerated.
• Type 1 hypersensitivity to the artemisinin compounds has been reported.
• Adverse Effects Adverse Effects of orally-administered artemisinins demonstrated transient neurological abnormalities( nystagmus and disturbances in balance)

• No vaccine or drugs are available for the prevention of dengue
• Preventive measure should be taken to avoid the bite of the mosquito– Well screen accommodations or air conditioning– Use of insecticide indoors– Apply insect repellent to skin and clothing. The most effective
are the ones with DEET– Empty , clean or cover any standing water that can be a
mosquito-breeding site
Preventive measure for traveler

• The times of higher risk of being bitten by the female mosquito is 2 to 3 hours after daybreak and 3 to 4 hours before nightfall
• The mosquito can feed indoors as well as outdoors
