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 ...

Vector-borne diseases in pregnancy [PDF]

Therapeutic Advances in Infectious Disease, 2020
Vector-borne infections cause a significant proportion of world-wide morbidity and mortality and many are increasing in incidence. This is due to a combination of factors, primarily environmental change, encroachment of human habitats from urban to peri-urban areas and rural to previously uninhabited areas, persistence of poverty, malnutrition and ...

A set of ontologies to drive tools for the control of vector-borne diseases [PDF]

, 2009
We are developing a set of ontologies that deal with vector-borne diseases and the arthropod vectors that transmit them. For practical reasons (application priorities), we initiated this project with an ontology of insecticide resistance followed by a ...

Genetic diversity and spatiotemporal population structure of Anopheles sinensis in the Republic of Korea based on the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) marker [PDF]

Osong Public Health and Research Perspectives
Objectives Anopheles sinensis is a predominant malaria vector found throughout the Republic of Korea (ROK). Population genetic analysis can provide insights into the origins and migration patterns of malaria vectors by assessing genetic variation and ...

Vector-Borne Viral Diseases [PDF]

BioMed Research International, 2015
In this special issue, we have solicited review articles on West Nile virus epidemiology and research articles on dengue diseases. N. J. Samanta et al. report the occurrence of West Nile virus antibodies in wild birds, horses, and humans serum samples collected between 2010 and 2014 from different areas of Poland.

Progress in the use of adeno-associated viral vectors for gene therapy [PDF]

, 2004
The development of safe and efficient gene transfer vectors is crucial for the success of gene therapy trials. A viral vector system promising to meet these requirements is based on the apathogenic adeno-associated virus (AAV-2), a member of the ...
