Prospective Assessment of a New Polymerase Chain Reaction Target (STEVOR) for Imported Plasmodium falciparum Malaria
Abstract
The diagnostic value of a polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based method for amplifying a new target of repeated genes (STEVOR) in Plasmodium falciparum was prospectively assessed on samples from 210 febrile patients returning from areas endemic for malaria. This method is capable of detecting 0.01 parasites in one microliter of blood. Plasmodium falciparum STEVOR PCR confirmed the results of the thin- and thick-film direct examination method but identified Plasmodium falciparum in four patients in whom direct examination was inconclusive at the species level. Moreover, PCR was positive in two patients with a negative direct examination. Thus, Plasmodium falciparum STEVOR PCR had 100% sensitivity and specificity and could be used in selected parasitology laboratories when expert advice is required.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
