The nature of regulatory elements or their target genes in the P. falciparum genome remains elusive. Here, we found that this eukaryotic parasite uses an efficient way to maximally use genetic and epigenetic regulation to form regulatory units (RUs) during blood infections. Genes located in the same RU tend to have the same pattern of expression over time and are associated with open chromatin along regulatory elements. To precisely define and quantify these RUs, a novel hidden Markov model was developed to capture the regulatory structure in a genome-wide fashion by integrating expression and epigenetic evidence. We successfully identified thousands of RUs and cross-validated with previous findings. We found more genes involved in red blood cell (RBC) invasion located in the same RU as the PfAP2-I (AP2-I) transcription factor, demonstrating that AP2-I is responsible for regulating RBC invasion. Our study has provided a regulatory mechanism for a compact eukaryotic genome and offers new insights into the in vivo transcriptional regulation of the P. falciparum intraerythrocytic stage. Previous literature reported racial/ethnic disparities in the measure assessment of diabetes medication adherence in the Medicare Part D Star Ratings program. This study examined the likelihood of inclusion in measure calculation across racial/ethnic groups for adherence metrics in Part D Star Ratings among individuals with diabetes, hypertension, and/or hyperlipidemia. This was a retrospective cross sectional analysis of a 10% random sample of 2017 Medicare claims linked to Area Health Resources
