 Climate change is rapidly altering the global landscape in several ways. Its effects on public health are one of these, and it wouldn’t be a big exaggeration to say that, sometimes, it’s a matter of life or death. Malaria, as a leading cause of morbidity and mortality among children under five years of age, particularly […]

 Malaria still impacts greatly on childhood morbidity and mortality in endemic areas of the world. Effective antimalarial treatments form the mainstay of interventions against the disease but nutritional support also plays a vital role in the recovery of paediatric patients. Optimal nutrition augments the effectiveness of the immune system against the disease, enhances the efficacy

 Malaria continues to be one of the major infections that leads to morbidity and mortality in young children. This is especially true in sub-Saharan Africa and parts of South Asia where there is endemic malaria transmission. Timely diagnosis and treatment of malaria is crucial in the effective management of pediatric malaria and in limiting severe

 Mobile health technology, or mHealth, is revolutionizing healthcare delivery and disease management, particularly in remote regions and underserved populations. By providing access to vital health information and services via mobile devices, mHealth improves communication, facilitates timely interventions, and enhances overall health outcomes in areas that may lack traditional healthcare infrastructure. Mobile health technology is an

Pediatric malaria remains a significant global health challenge, affecting millions of children each year. While the acute impact of the disease can be devastating for both children and their families, malaria also leads to numerous long-term developmental effects that are harder to quantify. These lasting consequences can hinder a child’s growth, education, and overall well-being,

 Children bear the brunt of malaria globally and are disproportionately affected by the disease in malaria-endemic areas, where it is responsible for many child deaths. Pediatric malaria continues to be a grave problem despite the introduction of new control and treatment strategies. Pediatric malaria needs a voice. Otherwise, the disease and its complications will continue

 No matter how many times we eliminate malaria, it always comes back A parasitic disease transmitted from Anopheles mosquitoes, malaria causes substantial global morbidity and mortality, particularly among under-fives in sub-Saharan Africa. By reviewing what we know, what we still need to learn about, and how we learn it, specifically about the longer-term developmental and

 A pediatric malaria child in CameroonThe fight against malaria for children has become an essential public health approach. Eliminating malaria will require special attention to the problem of malaria in children, particularly in low- and middle-income countries where socio-economic conditions play a major role in not only the prevalence but also the impact of malaria.

 In a general context, malaria is a major public health concern worldwide. The risk for malaria is greater when facing the compounded vulnerability of severe distress in the refugee capes. And when it comes to children the moment a pregnant woman enters the camp the risk of malaria transmission from birth rises exponentially, when confronted

In child health, few issues are as interconnected as malnutrition and infectious diseases. Childhood is the period when these health problems are most closely linked. Like facets of a diamond, malnutrition and infectious disease align to braid a vulnerability that can intertwine growth and development in permanent ways if left unchecked. Mastering this link holds
