Incidental diagnosis of subcutaneous filariasis with an unusual presentation in a non-endemic area—Need to worry? [PDF]
Journal of Family Medicine and Primary CareWe report an interesting case of Bancroftian filariasis diagnosed on fine needle aspiration cytology in a young female hailing from a non-endemic hilly area of India, who presented with a subcutaneous swelling on the left forearm.

MSbB in the treatment of bancroftian filariasis [PDF]
Transactions of the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1962 Abstract 1. 1) MSbB given by mouth to 10 patients for approximately 1 week had a significant filaricidal effect on W. bancrofti . 2. 2) The tolerance towards the test dosage of 8–19 mg./kg. daily and 49–138 mg./kg. for the total dose, was satisfactory.

Larvicidal Activity of Cassia occidentalis (Linn.) against the Larvae of Bancroftian Filariasis Vector Mosquito Culex quinquefasciatus. [PDF]
J Parasitol Res, 2014 Background & Objectives. The plan of this work was to study the larvicidal activity of Cassia occidentalis (Linn.) against the larvae of Culex quinquefasciatus. These larvae are the most significant vectors. They transmit the parasites and pathogens which cause a deadly disease like filariasis, dengue, yellow fever, malaria, Japanese encephalitis ...

Characterization of a novel microfilarial antigen for diagnosis of Wuchereria bancrofti infections.
PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2022 BackgroundLymphatic filariasis (LF) is a neglected tropical disease caused by the filarial nematodes Wuchereria bancrofti, Brugia malayi and Brugia timori. The Global Program to Eliminate LF uses mass drug administration (MDA) of anti-filarial drugs that

Psyche: A Journal of Entomology, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022 Rapid development of resistance in vector mosquitoes to synthetic insecticides is a major challenge for malaria control. The use of plant‐derived essential oils (EOs) is an attractive strategy in controlling mosquito populations because they are environmentally safe and may have a lower chance of developing resistance.
