Wavelet Analysis of Dengue Incidence and its Correlation with Weather and Vegetation Variables in Costa Rica [PDF]
Dengue represents a serious public health problem in tropical and subtropical regions worldwide. The number of dengue cases and its geographical expansion has increased in recent decades, driven mostly after by social and environmental factors. In Costa Rica, it has been endemic since it was first introduced in 1993.

Effect of active case finding on dengue control: Implications from a mathematical model [PDF]
Dengue control in India is a challenging task due to complex healthcare settings. In yesteryears, an amplification of dengue infections in India posed the need for introspection of existing dengue control policies. Prior understanding of the impacts of control interventions is necessary for their future implementation.

Dengue transmission dynamics in age-structured human populations in the presence of Wolbachia [PDF]
According to the World Health Organization the global incidence rate of dengue infections have risen drastically in recent years. It is estimated that globally the number of new infections is in the range of $100$ to $400$ million per annum. At the same time a number of recent studies reported the existence of Wolbachia strains, which inhibit dengue ...
