| simian malaria | Plasmodial infection of monkeys and apes, as with human malaria, transmitted chiefly by anopheline mosquitoes; a number of Plasmodium species are responsible, with Southeast Asia and Africa being the apparent centres of evolution; among the 20 plasmodial agents described from nonhuman primates, some resemble and induce a malarial infection similar to those caused by the four species of Plasmodium from humans, from which the agents of human malaria appear to be derived. Synonym: monkey malaria. (05 Mar 2000) |

| nonan malaria | A malarial fever with paroxysms that occur every ninth day, i.e., every eighth day following the preceding paroxysm, the day of each paroxysm being included in the computation. Ovale malaria Ovale tertian malaria, malaria caused by Plasmodium ovale. (05 Mar 2000) |

| quartan malaria | A malarial fever with paroxysms that recur every 72 hours or every fourth day, reckoning the day of the paroxysm as the first; due to the schizogony and release of merozoites from infected cells, with invasion of new red blood corpuscles by Plasmodium malariae. Synonym: quartan fever, quartan malaria. (05 Mar 2000) |
| quotidian malaria | Malaria in which the paroxysms occur daily; usually a double tertian malaria, in which there is an infection by two distinct groups of Plasmodium vivax parasites sporulating alternately every 48 hours, but also may be an infection by the pernicious form of malarial parasite, P. Falciparum, combined with P. Vivax, or infection by two distinct P. Falciparum generations, which mature on different days; also may develop from infection with P. Knowlesi. Synonym: quotidian fever. (05 Mar 2000) |
| tertian malaria | <disease, microbiology> A type of malaria caused by the protozoan Plasmodium vivax, it isthe most common form of the disease, is rarely fatal but is the most difficult to cure, and is characterised by fevers that typically occur every other day. (11 Nov 1997) |
| therapeutic malaria | Intentionally induced malaria, formerly used against neurosyphilis and certain other paralytic diseases; the mechanism is thought to be immunological, with Plasmodium antibodies cross-reacting against the spirochetes or other agents. (05 Mar 2000) |
| falciparum malaria | <infectious disease> A tropical parasitic disease caused by one of the genus Plasmodium and carried by infected mosquitoes of the genus Anopheles. This parasite uses red blood cells to complete its reproductive cycle. Common symptoms of an attack include high fever, chills, sweats and body aches. (27 Sep 1997) |
