Systematic review and meta-analysis of diagnostic accuracy of loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) methods compared with microscopy, polymerase chain reaction and rapid diagnostic tests for malaria diagnosis

Background: Diagnosis is a challenging issue for eliminating malaria. Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) could be an alternative to conventional methods. This study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of LAMP for malaria compared with microscopy, polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and...
