Is Indoor Residual Spraying broken and what should be fixed?

open access: yes, 2015
Indoor residual spraying (IRS) has been and is still a very successful method to controlmalaria. We are concerned that not enough research attention is given to improvingIRS and that most funding goes towards modern but seemingly still ineffectualmethods.

Addressing Behavioural Determinants of Cutaneous Leishmaniasis Through Community Dialogue in Kalu District, Ethiopia: A Mixed‐Methods Study

open access: yesTropical Medicine &International Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) is a major public health challenge in Ethiopia, with 20–30,000 new cases annually. Limited awareness and misconceptions contribute to delayed care seeking, stigma, prolonged healing, and reduced uptake of preventive measures in CL‐endemic communities.

The Comparative Effectiveness of Vector Control Approaches for Dengue: A Systematic Review and Multilevel Network Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesTropical Medicine &International Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Dengue vector control plays an important role in reducing the burden of dengue infection. Conventional meta‐analysis can only include interventions that can be directly compared. Hence, this study aimed to compare the effectiveness of all interventions for dengue vector control directly and indirectly through a multilevel Bayesian ...

Advances in Floating Solar Desalination Systems

open access: yesWater and Environment Journal, EarlyView.
This review critically classifies floating solar desalination systems into five main categories and compares their thermal performance, productivity and technological limitations. Membrane‐based and multieffect systems showed the highest efficiencies, while traditional designs remain limited by heat losses and scaling.

Post‐exercise ketone supplementation improves endurance performance and mitochondrial adaptations during an 8‐week endurance training intervention

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Twenty‐eight trained males completed 8 weeks of supervised indoor cycling training, receiving post‐exercise and pre‐sleep ketone monoester (KE, n = 14) or isocaloric placebo (CON, n = 14). Both groups improved 30 min time‐trial performance with training, but KE achieved a 4% higher power output than CON at the end of the training

A systematic color correction pipeline for controlled‐environment imaging

open access: yesThe Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.
ABSTRACT We present a stepwise color correction (CC) pipeline for controlled imaging environments. The workflow integrates flat‐field correction (FFC), gamma correction, and white‐balance correction, followed by a color‐mapping (CM) stage using machine‐learning regression—linear, partial least squares, and neural networks (NNs)—to deliver reliable CC ...

Household predictors of malaria episode in northern Uganda: its implication for future malaria control

open access: yesBMC Public Health
Background Uses of indoor residual spraying (IRS), long-lasting insecticidal nets (LLINS) and treatment with artemisinin-based combination therapy (ACT) are greatly promoted in the northern part of Uganda as mitigating strategies for malaria episodes ...
