| Summary, etc. | Abstract:<br/><br/>Background: The incidence, distribution, and dynamics of malaria parasite species was examined in this study. The goal of the study was to precisely identify the prevalence and Plasmodium species and determine the circulating malaria species in Mwanza using PCR. <br/><br/>Method: This was a cross-sectional approach to look into the distribution and prevalence of different malaria species at Igombe. Sampling entailed identifying the species by PCR-based molecular techniques on individuals who exhibited symptoms of malaria. Blood sample was collected from consenting study participants. Data on demographics was collected using a well-structured questionnaire. Data was then entered in Microsoft excel and analysed using STATA version 15.0.<br/><br/>Results: The prevalence of malaria at was 24.49% and all the malaria species were of Plasmodium falciparum. Other Plasmodium species such as Plasmodium vivax, Plasmodium malariae, Plasmodium ovale, were not detected by conventional PCR.<br/><br/>Conclusion and recommendation: The prevalence of Malaria is 24.49% and there the predominant species is Plasmodium falciparum. A more comprehensive study with a bigger sample size should be done to delineate the circulating species. <br/> |
