The Impact of Memory Effects on Lymphatic Filariasis Transmission Using Incidence Data From Ghana
Engineering Reports, Volume 7, Issue 7, July 2025.Modeling Lymphatic Filariasis by incorporating disease awareness through fractional derivative operators. ABSTRACT Lymphatic filariasis is a neglected tropical disease caused by a parasitic worm transmitted to humans by a mosquito bite. In this study, a mathematical model is developed using the Caputo fractional operator.

Journal of Parasitology Research, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.Aim. Onchocerciasis is an endemic parasitic disease in sub‐Saharan Africa that significantly impacts animal and human health. In Northern Cameroon, medicinal plants from the Combretum genus are used for onchocerciasis traditional treatment although there is no scientific evidence of their antifilarial potential. This study evaluates the in vitro macro‐
