原始摘要（英文原文）· Original abstract
The WHO World Malaria Report 2025 highlights growing artemisinin resistance, with Nigeria bearing the world's highest malaria burden at risk. Although no validated resistance markers were found, non-canonical mutations correlate with delayed parasite clearance. The report urges Nigeria to implement multiple first-line therapies, expand surveillance, and diversify policy urgently.
