Results of this study are promising. Larger studies are needed to assess whether RDTs using urine could serve as a practical, reliable method for the detection of P. falciparum in a non-invasive manner where invasive blood taking is less feasible.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
