Distribution of falciparum and non-falciparum malaria among symptomatic malaria patients in Dschang, West Region of Cameroon

2026Open accessUniversité de Dschang

Abstract

While falciparum remains the dominant malaria parasite species among acute febrile illness cases, non-falciparum malaria is also commonly found in Dschang, both as a co-infection with P. falciparum and as mono-infections. Both subspecies of P. ovale are present in the region. Continued monitoring of non-falciparum species is needed for understanding malaria burden in West Cameroon.
