Abstract

The development of an effective malaria vaccine depends upon identification of antigens that are targets of protective immune responses. An immunoepidemiologic approach has been used to investigate the relationship between antibody responses to a defined region of the major merozoite surface protein of Plasmodium falciparum (PfMSP-1 19) and resistance to clinical malaria in 2 populations of children from West Africa. After allowing for the confounding effects of age, antibodies to PfMSP-1 19 were shown the provide 40% protection against clinical malaria in children in Sierra Leone. In Gambian children, antibodies to one of the epidermal growth factor-like motifs of PfMSP-1 19 were strongly associated with resistance to both clinical malaria and high levels of parasitemia.

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.
