Recommendations for malaria prevention in moderate to low risk areas : travellers' choice and risk perception [PDF]
The considerable malaria decline in several countries challenges the strategy of chemoprophylaxis for travellers visiting moderate- to low-risk areas. An international consensus on the best strategy is lacking.

Using customs data to understand overlooked trade in non‐CITES birds between Africa and Asia
Abstract The international trade in live birds poses risks to animals, people, and biodiversity. To effectively mitigate these risks, decision‐makers require information on the volume, dynamics, and direction of trade. Despite Africa once being the largest exporter of birds by region, very little data exist on recent trade in live birds not listed on ...

Haemosporidian parasites are widely recognised as important drivers of avian physiology, with potential effects on oxygen transport and energy balance. These parasites infect red blood cells and consume host haemoglobin, reducing oxygen‐carrying capacity.

Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) for point-of-care detection of asymptomatic low-density malaria parasite carriers in Zanzibar. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Asymptomatic, low parasite density malaria infections are difficult to detect with currently available point-of-care diagnostics. This study piloted a loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) kit for field-friendly, high-throughput ...

CD8+ Tissue‐Resident Memory T Cells in Health and Disease
CD8+ TRM cells are at the center of immunity, mediating potent local innate and adaptive immune responses. While TRM cells mediate protective immunity against infections and tumors, they also contribute to pathological inflammation in autoimmune conditions.

Disentangling Environmental and Within‐Host Drivers of Parasite Dynamics in Natural Populations
ABSTRACT Understanding how parasite communities assemble and persist in the wild requires integrating both spatial and temporal dynamics, especially in systems involving multiple co‐circulating lineages. Using a unique 28‐year dataset of individually monitored great tits (Parus major) from five sites in western Switzerland, we investigated the eco ...
