    Extractions: Bitte beachten Sie in jedem Fall den untenstehenden Haftungsausschluss. " Malaria tropica " ist eine fieberhafte Tropenkrankheit, die durch Mücken übertragen wird und unbehandelt nicht selten zum Tode des Infizierten führt. Ca. sechs Tage nach dem Stich durch eine infizierte Mücke kann es zu ersten Symptomen kommen. Eine gute Impfvorsorge gibt es nicht. Mückenschutz ist die beste Vorsorge. Malariamedikamente als Prophylaxe sind zusätzlich in vielen Ländern für Reisende sehr sinnvoll. Welche Medikamente genommen werden sollen, legt der Tropenmediziner mit dem Reisenden bei der persönlichen Beratung fest. Eine frühzeitige Malariatherapie ist immer erfolgreich. Wird zu Beginn der Erkrankung Zeit verschenkt, d.h. die Therapie verzögert, so verselbständigt sich der Krankheitsverlauf häufig: die starke Vermehrung der Parasiten in den Blutgefäßen des Kranken und andere Mechanismen können zu lebensbedrohlichem Organversagen führen. Auch bei kurzen Reisen lohnt eine adäquate Malariaprophylaxe, ggf. auch mit Medikamenten. Dies schützt aber nicht in jedem Fall gegen eine Infektion. Zudem tarnt sich die "Malaria tropica" häufig als Grippe oder als Durchfallerkrankung, die erst nach Rückkehr in der Heimat auftreten kann. Sie wird häufig nicht ernst genommen und dem kundigen Tropenarzt zu spät vorgestellt: Dieser Zeitverlust entscheidet wesentlich mit über das Schicksal des Patienten.

Special Reports SERVICES Video E-Mail Services CNNtoGO SEARCH Web CNN.com Story Tools WASHINGTON (CNN) Military investigators have found no evidence that the anti-malarial drug Lariam was a contributing factor in the killings of four Army wives, allegedly by their husbands, U.S. Defense Department sources Wednesday told CNN. The Army plans to release next week results of an investigation of the circumstances surrounding the deaths of the women, whose husbands were based at Fort Bragg, North Carolina. In three of the deaths, the men accused had recently returned from Afghanistan. Questions had been raised about whether side effects of Lariam, which has been administered to the military for duty in Afghanistan, had contributed to violent behavior. The drug is known chemically as mefloquine hydrochloride. Roche Laboratories, the drug's manufacturer, acknowledges the substance may cause mental disturbances ranging from anxiety to psychotic behavior. A Web site medical brochure warns against the use of the drug by patients "with a recent history of depression, generalized anxiety disorder, psychosis, or schizophrenia or other major psychiatric disorders."

Pentagon officials said Tuesday the 10 were medically evacuated to the National Naval Medical Center in Bethesda, Maryland, on Monday. They include eight Marines and two Navy sailors.

All the affected Marines and sailors are with the 26th Marine Expeditionary Unit (MEU) aboard the USS Iwo Jima stationed off the coast of Liberia. The MEU is part of a 150-member Quick Reaction Force sent to the Liberian capital to assist in the peacekeeping mission in the war-torn country last month. The troops were ashore between August 15 and August 26 before they returned to the Iwo Jima.

Any returning traveler who develops a fever that lasts more than a few days requires prompt medical attention to screen for a malaria infection. While malaria medications such as chloroquine, doxycycline, or mefloquine (Lariam) can prevent symptoms of acute malaria from developing by suppressing the infection in the bloodstream, they do not prevent relapses of infection caused by certain strains of the parasite that have a persistent liver phase. Fortunately, the most common type of malaria is the

    Extractions: The development of resistance to familiar anti-malarials has created confusion both for Doctors and travellers as to what is the best and most effective anti-malarial to take and which areas of the World require special precautions. Further difficulties are created by the serious side-effects encountered on using the newer drugs. This review will endeavour to elucidate current areas of resistance and recommendations for prophylaxis and treatment. Great stress is given to the warning that no prophylaxis is foolproof and failures arise most commonly from not taking the drugs as prescribed. In particular they must be started 1 week before departure and continued for 4-6 weeks after leaving the malaria area. Any fever up to 12-18months after leaving a malaria area should arouse suspicion of malaria and be investigated accordingly. Appropriate advice must be sought prior to departure from a reputable travel advice centre. Antimalarial drugs
