Antimalarial drug resistance, artemisinin-based combination therapy, and the contribution of modeling to elucidating policy choices.
Increasing resistance of Plasmodium falciparum malaria to antimalarial drugs is posing a major threat to the global effort to "Roll Back Malaria". Chloroquine and sulfadoxine-pyrimethamine (SP) are being rendered increasingly ineffective, resulting in increasing morbidity, mortality, and e...
