Integrated Aedes management for the control of Aedes-borne diseases

PLOS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2018
Background Diseases caused by Aedes-borne viruses, such as dengue, Zika, chikungunya, and yellow fever, are emerging and reemerging globally. The causes are multifactorial and include global trade, international travel, urbanisation, water storage ...

Aedes Mosquitoes and Aedes-Borne Arboviruses in Africa: Current and Future Threats [PDF]

International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2018
The Zika crisis drew attention to the long-overlooked problem of arboviruses transmitted by Aedes mosquitoes in Africa. Yellow fever, dengue, chikungunya and Zika are poorly controlled in Africa and often go unrecognized.

New methods for robust continuous wave T1ρ relaxation preparation

NMR in Biomedicine, Volume 36, Issue 2, February 2023., 2023
New and existing state‐of‐the‐art CW‐T1ρ schemes were compared theoretically, numerically, and experimentally at 9.4 T. Of the CW‐T1ρ methods using hard pulses, the proposed triple‐focus and earlier single‐refocus methods were highly robust, while the scheme using adiabatic excitation and double refocusing with BIR‐4 was the most robust. Measurement of

Releasing incompatible males drives strong suppression across populations of wild and Wolbachia-carrying Aedes aegypti in Australia

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2021
Significance With over 40% of humans at risk from mosquito-borne diseases such as dengue, yellow fever, chikungunya, and Zika, the development of environmentally friendly mosquito-control tools is critical. The release of reproductively incompatible male

Weather extremes associated with increased Ross River virus and Barmah Forest virus notifications in NSW: learnings for public health response

Australian and New Zealand Journal of Public Health, Volume 46, Issue 6, Page 842-849, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Objective: To examine the sequence of environmental and entomological events prior to a substantial increase in Ross River virus (RRV) and Barmah Forest virus (BFV) notifications with a view to informing future public health response. Methods: Rainfall, tidal, mosquito and human arboviral notification data were analysed to determine the ...

The Global Expansion of Dengue: How Aedes aegypti Mosquitoes Enabled the First Pandemic Arbovirus.

Annual Review of Entomology, 2020
Dengue is an emerging viral disease principally transmitted by the Aedes (Stegomyia) aegypti mosquito. It is one of the fastest-growing global infectious diseases, with 100-400 million new infections a year, and is now entrenched in a growing number of ...

Optical recognition of the eggs of four Aedine mosquito species (Aedes albopictus, Aedes geniculatus, Aedes japonicus, and Aedes koreicus)

PLOS ONE, 2023
The continuous expansion of exotic Aedine mosquito species potential vectors of pathogens into new areas is a public health concern. In continental Europe, the surveillance of these mosquitoes is hindered by the simultaneous presence of three main invasive species (i.e.,Aedes albopictus,Ae.japonicus, andAe.koreicus).
