MALARIA Yuankai Wu The Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-Sen Universicty Department of infectious diseases Malaria • a vector-borne disease caused by single celled parasites, the Plasmodium protozoa, and transmitted by female Anopheles mosquitoes. • Characterized by malarial paroxysm of chills, fever and sweats. Still an enormous pubic health problem and one of the most common infectious diseases. History of malaria • Malaria has infected humans for over 50,000 years. • first recorded in 2700 BC in China. • originates from Medieval Italian: • mala aria — "bad air"; • was formerly called ague or marsh fever due to its association with swamps and marshland History of malaria • 1880, a French army doctor first observed parasites in patient’s RBC. the 1907 Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine. • 1898, Britain's Sir Ronald Ross finally proved that malaria is transmitted by mosquito.(received the 1902 Nobel Prize) Charles Louis Alphonse Laveran Malaria • • • • • • • • • 1.

Summary Etiology • Plasmodium protozoa – – – – P. falciparum (the deadliest); P. malariae ; P. ovale ; P. vivax (the most common); • Within each species there are variant strains. Life cycle • Sexual cycle in mosquito – Gametocyte, gamete, zygote, ookinete, oocyst, sporoblast, sporozoite • Asexual cycle in Human – Exoerythrocytic stage: sporozoite, tachysporozoite (12-20d), bradysporozoite (hypnozoite) (6-11m), merozoite, schizont, – Erythrocytic stage: ring form, trophozoite, schizont, gametocyte Ring form Trophozoite Schizonte Gametocyte Sporozoite Tachysporozoite Bradysporozoite Merozoite Release merozoites Release merozoites Fertilization 3-6 generations in RBCs Epidemiology • Source of infection – Patients – Asymptomatic carriers Epidemiology • Route of transmission – Bite by female anopheles mosquitoes. – Vertical transmission (placenta) – Blood transfusion Epidemiology • Susceptibility – All susceptible – Travelers and foreigner – Children, pregnant women – Short immunity, without cross immunity. Epidemiology • Epidemiological feature – Seasons: Summer and Autumn (temperature) – In china, P. vivax is predominant, P. falciparum second, P. malariae and P. ovale seldem. – Endemic areas: tropic or sub-tropic area. Endemic countries of malaria (2003) NOTE: In most of these countries malaria was limited to certain areas Death (/10,000) Year The mortality of malaria in china in 1952-1998 Pathogenesis Toxic mediators Inflammatory responses Chill, fever, sweat metabolic disturbances hypoglycaemia Anemia Hemolysis Phagocytosis Adhere to blood vessels Splenomegaly hepatomegaly renal failure Black water fever Cerebral malaria Tissue hypoxia Obstruct blood flow Pulmonary edema Impaired microcirculation DIC The severtity of clinical manifestations • Parasitemia – P. falciparum: 1,000,000/ mm3 – P. vivax and P. ovale: ≤25,000/mm3 – P. malariae: ≤10,000/mm3 • Infected RBC – P. falciparum: RBCs of any age. – P. vivax and P. ovale: younger RBCs. – P. malariae: older RBCs. • Multiply speed – P. falciparum: 36-48h – P. vivax and P. ovale: 48h – P. malariae: 72h Clinical manifestation • • • • • • • • • • • Incubation period: 7~30d (7~12, 13~15, 24~30) Malaria paroxysm: chills, fever and sweating. Periodicity: every 48h (P. vivax, P. ovale) every 72h (P. malariae) every 36-48h (P. falciparum) Between attacks: feel fine (P. vivax, ovale or malariae) or miserable (P. falciparum) Clinical manifestation —typical attack • Chilling stage: 20min~1h, feel cold and true shaking chills, accompanied with malaise, headache, vomiting or diarrhea. • Hot stage: 2~6h, T usually as high as 41℃, tachycardia, hypotension, cough, headache, backache, but normal consciousness. • Sweating stage: 30min~1h, T falls with diaphoresis, fatigue and weak. • Common signs: anemia, splenomegaly. Intermittent fever of P. vivax synchronization ℃ 40 39 38 37 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 Days Clinical manifestation severe attack • Cerebral malaria: – P. falciparum infection, T, antimalarial drugs. – Obstruction of vessels and hypoglycemia. – Severe headache, high fever. – Impairment of consciousness: confusion, obtundation, seizures and coma. – Neurologic sign: hyper-reflexion and bilateral Babinski’s sign. Focal neurologic finding occurs rarely. Recrudescence and Relapse • Recrudescence: – residual plasmodium in the bloodstream. – could be found in all the four species infection. – 1~4wk after relieved, or repeatedly. • Relapse: – hypnozoites in the hepatocytes. – only found in P. vivax and P. ovale. – usually 3~6mon after “cured”. Clinical manifestation special type • malaria in pregnancy: – main adult risk group. – 80% death of malaria in Africa. – more aggravated: anemia, fever, hypoglycemia, cerebral malaria, pulmonary edema, puerperal(afte labor) sepsis. – Low birth weight, prematurity. – Vertical transmission. Clinical manifestation special type • Malaria infected by blood transfusion: – Symptoms: the same as malaria transmited by mosquitoes. – Shorter Incubation stage: 7-10d. no exoerythrocytic stage – No hypnozoite, no relapse. • Malaria infected by vertical transmission: – Symptoms: the same – Incubation stage: about 1wk after birth. – No hypnozoite, no relapse. Complications • Hemolytic urinemic syndrome (black water fever) • Pulmonary edema. • Hyperreactive malarial splenomegaly. • Shock, hypotension. • Diarrhoea, jaundice, splenic rupture. • Anemia, hemorrhage, DIC. • Hypoglycaemia, metabolic acidosis. Complications • Hemolytic urinemic syndrome – More common in adults, rare in children. – More frequent in patients without immunity and with high parasitemia and G6PD deficiency after quinine or primaquine. – Intravascular hemolysis, hemoglobinuria. – Lumbago, dark urine(black water), jaundice, oliguria, renal failure. Complications • Hemolytic urinemia syndrome(black water fever). • Pulmonary edema. • Hyperreactive malarial splenomegaly. • Shock, hypotension. • Diarrhoea, jaundice, splenic rupture. • Anemia, hemorrhage, DIC. • Hypoglycaemia, metabolic acidosis.
