Malaria burden and case management in the Republic of Congo: limited use and application of rapid diagnostic tests results

BACKGROUND: There have been few investigations evaluating the burden of malaria disease at district level in the Republic of Congo since the introduction of artemisinin-based combination therapies (ACTs). The main objective of this study was to document laboratory-confirmed cases of malaria using mi...
