They are particularly important in the assessment of artemisinin resistance. The slope of the log-linear segment in the middle of the parasite clearance curve has the least inter-individual variance and is the focus of therapeutic assessment. The factors affecting parasite clearance are reviewed. Methods of presentation and the approaches to analysis are discussed. © 2011 White; licensee BioMed Central Ltd.Mahidol UniversityImmunology and MicrobiologyMedicineThe parasite clearance curveArticleSCOPUS10.1186/1475-2875-10-278
