Modeling within-host effects of drugs on Plasmodium falciparum transmission and prospects for malaria elimination.
Achieving a theoretical foundation for malaria elimination will require a detailed understanding of the quantitative relationships between patient treatment-seeking behavior, treatment coverage, and the effects of curative therapies that also block Plasmodium parasite transmission to mosquito vector...
