Abstract

Pregnant women are the adult age group with the highest risk of contracting malaria. The purpose of this study was to determine the risk factors for the incidence of malaria in pregnant women. This type of research is observational using a case control study design. The population was 522 pregnant women who were positive for malaria and negative for malaria recorded in the health center register in 2013. The sample was 80 pregnant women consisting of 40 pregnant women positive for malaria and 40 pregnant women negative.The results showed that there was no relationship between the habit of going outside at 18.00 - 20.00 with the prevalence of malaria (p value 0.154), there was no relationship between the habit of wearing long clothes outside the home and the prevalence of malaria (p value 1000), there was no relationship between the habit of wearing clothes every day. mosquito repellent while sleeping with malaria prevalence (p value 1000), there is no relationship between the habit of using mosquito nets while sleeping with malaria prevalence (p value 0.115), there is no relationship between the habit of opening windows at night at 18.00 – 20.00 with the prevalence of malaria (p value 0.115). value 0.431), there is a relationship between the presence of wire gauze on ventilation with malaria prevalence (p value 0.000).This study concluded that the variable associated with malaria prevalence was the presence of gauze on ventilation.

Abstract

Malaria remains a serious health problem in Keerom District, Papua Province, with an Annual Parasite Incidence (API) of 368 per 1000 population in 2018. This community service activity aims to improve the knowledge of malaria cadres about vector bionomics and skills in making insecticide-treated bed nets in Jaifuri Village. The method used is counselling with flipchart media and a demonstration of making insecticide-treated bed nets. The activity was carried out on July 4, 2024, involving 12 malaria cadres and related stakeholders. The pre-test and post-test results showed a significant increase in knowledge; whereas before counselling, 80.66% of participants had low knowledge, but after counselling, 100% reached the good knowledge category. This activity also improved cadres' skills in making insecticide-treated bed nets, which are essential to malaria prevention. It can be concluded that this community service activity effectively increases the capacity of malaria cadres as the frontline in malaria control efforts at the community level.

Abstract

Introduction: Malaria vaccines show significant potential for disease control but face challenges, including declining efficacy over time and resistance to drugs and insecticides. Despite the initial success of vaccines like RTS,S/AS01, an integrated approach is still needed to address malaria’s complex transmission dynamics across endemic regions. This review examines the current status, challenges, and future prospects of malaria vaccine development, focusing on the impact of combining pre-erythrocytic vaccines and transmission-blocking drugs using mathematical modeling to enhance their effectiveness in reducing transmission. Methods: A systematic literature review was conducted using the PICO framework to evaluate the effectiveness of malaria vaccines in reducing disease transmission. The review included studies involving vulnerable populations, particularly children in African countries. It compared the effectiveness of malaria vaccines with other control strategies, such as insecticide-treated bed nets and antimalarial drugs. Five relevant primary journals were analyzed using databases like PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar. Results: Findings reveal that newly developed malaria vaccines have significant potential to reduce malaria cases. However, large-scale implementation and regular vaccination strategies are required for sustained effectiveness. Genetic studies highlight the emergence of resistance, emphasizing the need for adaptable vaccines and strategies. Conclusion: Malaria vaccines, while promising, face obstacles such as waning efficacy and resistance. A combined strategy involving vaccines and transmission-blocking treatments is essential for global malaria elimination. Further research and strategic implementation are needed to optimize vaccine effectiveness and overcome these challenges.
