2 Figure 1 Artemisinin Resistance in the Greater Mekong Subregion. The upper panel shows the proportion of treatment failures after antimalarial therapy with artesunate–mefloquine (MAS3), or dihydroartemisinin–piperaquine (DP). The lower panel shows a current map of artemisinin resistance in Plasmodium falciparum malaria, here defined by persistent parasitaemia 3 days after start of artemisinin combination therapy (ACT).
