Attractive targeted sugar baits for malaria control in western Kenya (ATSB-Kenya) - Effect of ATSBs on epidemiologic and entomologic indicators: A Phase III, open-label, cluster-randomised, controlled trial. [PDF]

PLOS Glob Public Health
AbstractAttractive targeted sugar baits (ATSBs) are a novel malaria control tool designed to target mosquitoes outdoors. We conducted a cluster-randomised trial to evaluate the impact of ATSBs on malaria indicators in Kenya. Seventy clusters (>100 households/cluster) in Siaya county were randomly assigned (1:1) to intervention or control. Pyrethroid-

Maximizing the Potential of Attractive Targeted Sugar Baits (ATSBs) for Integrated Vector Management

Insects, 2023
Due to the limitations of the human therapeutics and vaccines available to treat and prevent mosquito-borne diseases, the primary strategy for disease mitigation is through vector control. However, the current tools and approaches used for mosquito control have proven insufficient to prevent malaria and arboviral infections, such as dengue, Zika, and ...

Systematic review and meta-analysis of the effect of exercise training on asprosin in randomized controlled trials. [PDF]

Physiol Rep
Abstract Asprosin, a protein that enhances insulin resistance by stimulating hepatic glucose secretion, is linked to obesity, metabolic disorders, and cardiovascular diseases. This systematic review and meta‐analysis investigate the influence of exercise training (ET) on circulating concentrations of asprosin.

Aviation Safety Enhancement via NLP & Deep Learning: Classifying Flight Phases in ATSB Safety Reports

2023 Global Conference on Information Technologies and Communications (GCITC), 2023
Aviation safety is paramount, demanding precise analysis of safety occurrences during different flight phases. This study employs Natural Language Processing (NLP) and Deep Learning models, including LSTM, CNN, Bidirectional LSTM (BLSTM), and simple Recurrent Neural Networks (sRNN), to classify flight phases in safety reports from the Australian ...

Adult spawners: A critical period for subarctic Chinook salmon in a changing climate

Global Change Biology, Volume 29, Issue 7, Page 1759-1773, April 2023., 2023
Chinook salmon are profoundly important to the economies, cultural heritage, and food security for people across their distribution, and they are vitally important to marine and freshwater ecosystems. However, widespread and sustained, poor abundance has been particularly devastating in the northernmost Chinook salmon populations.
