Baseline characterization of entomological drivers of malaria transmission in Namibia: a targeted operational entomological surveillance strategy. [PDF]

Parasit Vectors, 2023
AbstractBackgroundNamibia’s focus on the elimination of malaria requires an evidence-based strategy directed at understanding and targeting the entomological drivers of malaria transmission. In 2018 and 2019, the Namibia National Vector-borne Diseases Control Program (NVDCP) implemented baseline entomological surveillance based on a question-based ...

TriatoScore: an entomological-risk score for Chagas disease vector control-surveillance [PDF]

Parasites & Vectors, 2021
Background Triatomine bugs transmit Chagas disease across Latin America, where vector control-surveillance is increasingly decentralized. Locally run systems often deal with highly diverse native-vector faunas—plus, in some areas, domestic populations of

Entomological Surveillance as a Cornerstone of Malaria Elimination: A Critical Appraisal

, 2018
Global capacity for developing new insecticides and vector control products, as well as mathematical models to evaluate their likely impact upon malaria transmission has greatly improved in recent years. Given that a range of new vector control products are now emerging that target a greater diversity of adult mosquito behaviours, it should soon be ...

Emergence of Blue Tongue in the Mediterranean Basin and Entomological Surveillance in France [PDF]

Revue d’Elevage et de Médecine Vétérinaire des Pays Tropicaux, 2005
Bluetongue (BT) is an arboviral disease transmitted by biting midges (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae), which emerged in the Mediterranean in 1998 as a result of the northern spread of its main vector Culicoides imicola Kieffer 1913. In France, C. imicola was detected in the south of Corsica Island in October 2000, a few days before BT serotype 2 outbreaks ...

An entomological surveillance system based on open spatial information for participative dengue control [PDF]

Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2009
Aedes aegypti is a very efficient disseminator of human pathogens. This condition is the result of evolutionary adaptations to frequent haematophagy, as well as to the colonization of countless types of habitats associated with environmental and cultural factors that favor the proliferation of this mosquito in urban ecosystems.

Evaluation of the Entomological Adaptive Surveillance Framework for malaria vector monitoring: a comparative field trial with routine surveillance in Ghana and Mozambique

BMJ Public Health
Introduction Accurate mosquito surveillance is essential for guiding targeted interventions. To capture the spatial and temporal heterogeneity of mosquito populations, surveillance designs would ideally be flexible and evidence-based, that is, informed ...

Entomological Surveillance in Former Malaria-endemic Areas of Southern Italy. [PDF]

Pathogens, 2021
Malaria still represents a potential public health issue in Italy, and the presence of former Anopheles vectors and cases imported annually merit continuous surveillance. In areas no longer endemic, the concurrent presence of gametocyte carriers and competent vectors makes re-emergence of local transmission possible, as recently reported in Greece.

Entomological surveillance of invasive Aedes mosquitoes in Mazandaran Province, northern Iran from 2014 to 2020. [PDF]

Sci Rep, 2023
Mosquitoes are the most important vectors of serious infectious diseases in the world. Dengue, Zika, chikungunya and yellow fever are emerging and re-emerging infectious diseases, associated with the distribution of two key vectors i.e. Aedes aegypti and
