对托姆和普林西比民主共和国（DRSTP）免疫居民中传播的疟疾寄生虫种类和从该国返回的非免疫旅行者获得的疟疾寄生虫种类进行了比较。使用敏感的检测和物种鉴定的PCR，疟原虫寄生虫被发现在16的43名旅行者，谁在1995年的前8个月期间报告的临床诊断实验室在里斯本的血液。其中4例（25%）发现间日疟原虫，10例（63%）发现卵形疟原虫。在1995/1996年期间，这两个物种在DRSTP感染患者中的观察流行率<2%。(C)1998 Elsevier Science B. V.保留所有权利。
Malaria parasite species circulating in immune inhabitants of the Democratic Republic of Sao Tome e Principe (DRSTP) and those acquired by non-immune travellers returning from this country have been compared. Using sensitive detection and species identification by PCR, Plasmodium parasites were found in the blood of 16 of the 43 travellers, who reported during the first 8 months of 1995 to a clinical diagnosis laboratory in Lisbon. Plasmodium vivax was found in four (25%) and Plasmodium ovale in ten (63%) of these patients. The observed prevalence of these two species in infected patients of DRSTP during 1995/1996 was < 2%.
