Abstract
<p class="first" id="d5636951e166">In the six Southeast Asian countries that make
up the Greater Mekong Subregion, Plasmodium
falciparum has developed resistance to derivatives of artemisinin, the main component
of first-line treatments for malaria. Clinical resistance to artemisinin monotherapy
in other global regions, including Africa, would be problematic.
