Emerging Vector-Borne Diseases – Incidence through Vectors [PDF]

Frontiers in Public Health, 2014
Vector-borne diseases use to be a major public health concern only in tropical and subtropical areas, but today they are an emerging threat for the continental and developed countries also. Nowadays, in intercontinental countries, there is a struggle with emerging diseases, which have found their way to appear through vectors.

Artemisinin-based combination therapy does not measurably reduce human infectiousness to vectors in a setting of intense malaria transmission [PDF]

, 2012
<p>Background: Artemisinin-based combination therapy (ACT) for treating malaria has activity against immature gametocytes. In theory, this property may complement the effect of terminating otherwise lengthy malaria infections and reducing the ...

Vector control for the Chikungunya disease

Mathematical Biosciences and Engineering, 2010
We previously proposed a compartmental model to explain the outbreak of Chikungunya disease in Reunion Island, a French territory in Indian Ocean, and other countries in 2005 and possible links with the explosive epidemic of 2006. In the present paper, we asked whether it would have been possible to contain or stop the epidemic of 2006 through ...
