  "summary": "Background Malaria remains a major public health challenge in Cameroon, with sustained transmission particularly in forest-savannah transition zones. Although Plasmodium falciparum is the predominant malaria parasite, non-falciparum species such as P. malariae also contribute to the human infectious reservoir and to onward transmission. Parasite genetic diversity and multiplicity of infection…",
