title: [Effectiveness of radical treatment in infections with antochthonous strains of P. malariae].
abstract: The present paper reports on the results obtained in longitudinal serological investigations (indirect immunofluorescence and species homologous antigen) carried out with a review to evaluating the efficiency of the radical treatment in malaria caused by residual autochtonous P. malariae strains. In acute infections the treatment was followed by progressive decrease in the antibody level, tending towards zero in the course of a year; in the latent, asymptomatic infection, antibodies persisted at high levels for several years after the treatment, indicating persistence of the parasite and, hence, inefficiency of the treatment.
