- W2084702486 abstract "Vanuatu is located at the southeast margin of the malarious band extending from southeast Asia to eastern Melanesia. We analysed the malaria situation on different islands of Vanuatu, using passive case detection and malariometric survey data from 1985 to 1992, i.e. after the DDT residual programme ceased and before the impregnated bed-nets programme started on a larger scale. Malaria was mainly hypo-mesoendemic but with hyperendemic spots in certain years and on some islands. The transmission was generally more intense in the northern islands than in the south. In the late 1980s, annual parasite incidence per one thousand population (API) was around 180. The overall parasite rate was 11.9% with Plasmodium falciparum, P. vivax and P. malariae rate of 5.2, 6.7, and 0.1%, respectively. There was a seasonal fluctuation of P. falciparum incidence, whereas the P. vivax incidence was rather stable. Vivax malaria was confined to children less than 10 years old, while the intense in the northern islands than in the south. In the late 1980s, annual parasite incidence per one thousand population (API) was around 180. The overall parasite rate was 11.9% with Plasmodium falciparum, P. vivax and P. malariae rate of 5.2, 6.7, and 0.1%, respectively. There was a seasonal fluctuation of P. falciparum incidence, whereas the P. vivax incidence prevalence of P. falciparum only changed moderately with age. The mean rate of glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency among male subjects was in 7.4% but with a wide variation of 0-14.3% on different islands. A positive rank-order correlation was found between malaria incidence and G6PD deficiency rate on the different islands. A reasonable hypothesis is that malaria was introduced to the islands with the first human settlement 4000 years ago, with a geographical malaria distribution similar to the present situation. Different malaria endemicities possibly then selected different prevalences of G6PD deficiency over many generations." @default.
