Associations between ideational variables and bed net use in Madagascar, Mali, and Nigeria

open access: yesBMC Public Health, 2018
Background The use of insecticide-treated bed nets (ITNs) is crucial to the prevention, control, and elimination of malaria. Using household surveys conducted in 2014–2015 by the Health Communication Capacity Collaborative project in Madagascar, Mali ...

Effects of bioinsecticide exposure route on aphids and their natural enemies in oilseed rape

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 11, Page 10625-10636, November 2026.
Fatty acids, silicone polymers and surfactants reduced aphid numbers but caused natural enemy mortality under direct exposure, while minimal residual activity suggests potential for targeted, compatible use in integrated pest management. Abstract BACKGROUND Myzus persicae Sulzer and Brevicoryne brassicae L.

A trial of insecticide treated nets for malaria control in Yanomami communities in Amazonas, Venezuela [PDF]

open access: yes
A community randomized controlled trial was carried out in an area of moderate malaria transmission in the Amazon region, in South East Venezuela, where the indigenous Yanomami population live. The aim of the project was to

Do holes in long-lasting insecticidal nets compromise their efficacy against pyrethroid resistant Anopheles gambiae and Culex quinquefasciatus? : Results from a release-recapture study in experimental huts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Resistance of malaria vectors to pyrethroids threatens the effectiveness of long-lasting insecticidal nets (LLINs) as a tool for malaria control. Recent experimental hut and observational studies in Benin show that pyrethroid resistance reduces the ...

Application of optimal control to the epidemiology of malaria

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Differential Equations, 2012
Malaria is a deadly disease transmitted to humans through the bite of infected female mosquitoes. In this paper a deterministic system of differential equations is presented and studied for the transmission of malaria.

Seedling resistance and chemical defenses against Psylliodes chrysocephala: the roles of seed age and sinapinic acid in Sinapis alba and Brassica napus

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 11, Page 10727-10738, November 2026.
The cabbage stem flea beetle (Psylliodes chrysocephala) is a major pest of winter oilseed rape (Brassica napus). We tested B. napus and Sinapis alba seedlings for feeding resistance and underlying chemical defenses. S. alba was least damaged, while metabolite profiles revealed resistance‐linked compounds, highlighting breeding potential for insect ...

Experimental hut evaluation of bednets treated with an organophosphate (chlorpyrifos-methyl) or a pyrethroid (lambdacyhalothrin) alone and in combination against insecticide-resistant Anopheles gambiae and Culex quinquefasciatus mosquitoes. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
BACKGROUND: Pyrethroid resistant mosquitoes are becoming increasingly common in parts of Africa. It is important to identify alternative insecticides which, if necessary, could be used to replace or supplement the pyrethroids for use on treated nets ...

Developmental Toxicity Study for the Antimalarial Drug Combination Cabamiquine‐Pyronaridine Using a Translational Approach

open access: yesBirth Defects Research, Volume 118, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background The safety of pharmacological treatments during pregnancy is a significant concern, as many medications lack comprehensive reproductive safety data. This creates gaps in therapeutic options for pregnant women, particularly malaria, which poses serious risks to maternal and fetal health.
