Developing a Progressive Control Pathway for African Animal Trypanosomosis [PDF]
Trends in Parasitology, 2017 Progressive control pathways (PCPs) are stepwise approaches for the reduction, elimination, and eradication of human and animal diseases. They provide systematic frameworks for planning and evaluating interventions. Here we outline a PCP for tsetse-transmitted animal trypanosomosis, the scourge of poor livestock keepers in tropical Africa.

Community- and Farmer-Based Management of Animal African Trypanosomosis in Cattle [PDF]
Trends in Parasitology, 2013 Tsetse eradication is impossible in many parts of Africa given environmental, political, and economic circumstances. Animal African trypanosomosis (AAT) control then relies on implementation of local, integrated control strategies by communities or farmers that must take into account the eco-epidemiological context and the cattle rearing system to be ...

What Is Needed to Achieve Effective and Sustainable Control of African Animal Trypanosomosis? [PDF]
Trends in ParasitologyA welcome resurgence in African animal trypanosomosis (AAT) research has resulted in advances in capabilities, foundational datasets, and understanding. Additionally, there is the prospect of the first new trypanocide in >60 years. However, it is vital to ensure that advances translate to improved and sustainable control in the field. A recent meeting,

The Continental Atlas of Tsetse and African Animal Trypanosomosis in Nigeria
Acta Tropica, 2020Tsetse-transmitted trypanosomosis remains a major animal health problem in Nigeria, in a context where changes in land cover, climate and control interventions are modifying its epidemiological patterns. Evidence-based decision making for the progressive control of the disease requires spatially-explicit information on its occurrence and prevalence, as

Methods for the Rapid Appraisal of African Animal Trypanosomosis in the Gambia
Preventive Veterinary Medicine, 1999A technique for the rapid field assessment of African animal trypanosomosis (AAT) was developed during studies in the Gambia. This involved gathering indigenous information from rapid-appraisal questionnaires addressed to local informants, the results of single tsetse surveys and evaluations of the prevalence of trypanosome infections in village cattle.

Introduction of African Animal Trypanosomosis (AAT)/Nagana
2021African animal trypanosomosis (AAT), a livestock disease, also known as Nagana, tsetse fly disease, or tsetse disease, is a widespread tsetse-borne disease complex caused by unicellular protozoan parasites belonging to the genus Trypanosoma. It is one of the major constraints to the expansion of livestock rearing and livestock-based industries in ...

Development of a Rapid Antibody Test for Point-of-Care Diagnosis of Animal African Trypanosomosis [PDF]
Veterinary Parasitology, 2017 Trypanosoma congolense and T. vivax are the main causative agents of animal African trypanosomosis (AAT), a disease which hinders livestock production throughout sub-Saharan Africa and in some parts of South America. Although two trypanocidal drugs are currently available, the level of treatment is low due to the difficulty in diagnosing the disease in

Agricultural Systems, 1999 Abstract This paper addresses issues surrounding measurement of the potential productivity gains from new livestock technologies and the returns to international livestock research. The approach, applicable to many livestock production constraints and technologies, uses geographic information systems (GIS) to spatially link a biophysical herd ...

Financial losses estimation of African animal trypanosomosis in Nigeria: field reality-based model
Tropical Animal Health and Production, 2021Theoretical and modelling approaches were undertaken on Nigerian livestock industry to estimate financial losses due to African animal trypanosomosis.Surveys were conducted between March 2018 and February 2019 to include focus group interactions, in-depth household engagements concerning livestock practices in relation to AAT.

Journal of Veterinary Medical Science, 2016 We screened cattle and goats from the districts of Chama, Monze and Mumbwa in Zambia for animal African trypanosomes, Babesia bigemina and Theileria parva using PCRs; 38.1% of the samples tested positive for at least one of the parasite species. The most common parasite was Trypanosoma vivax (19.8%). Its incidence was significantly higher in goats than
