Optimal insecticide-treated bed-net coverage and malaria treatment in a malaria-HIV co-infection model

Journal of Biological Dynamics, 2017
We propose and study a mathematical model for malaria-HIV co-infection transmission and control, in which malaria treatment and insecticide-treated nets are incorporated.

Effectiveness of insecticide‐treated and untreated nets to prevent malaria in India [PDF]

Tropical Medicine & International Health, 2015
AbstractObjectivesIndia is the most malaria‐endemic country in South‐East Asia, resulting in a high socio‐economic burden. Insecticide‐treated or untreated nets are effective interventions to prevent malaria. As part of an Indian first‐aid guideline project, we aimed to investigate the magnitude of this effect in India.MethodsWe searchedMEDLINE, Embase

Equity and coverage of insecticide-treated bed nets in an area of intense transmission of Plasmodium falciparum in Tanzania. [PDF]

, 2009
BACKGROUND: There is no clear consensus on the most sustainable and effective distribution strategy for insecticide treated bed nets (ITNs). Tanzania has been a leader in social marketing but it is still not clear if this can result in high and equitable

Influence of pyrethroïd-treated bed net on host seeking behavior of Anopheles gambiae s.s. carrying the kdr allele. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2017
The use of long lasting insecticide nets (LLINs) treated with pyrethroïd is known for its major contribution in malaria control. However, LLINs are suspected to induce behavioral changes in malaria vectors, which may in turn drastically affect their ...

Optimal control analysis of a malaria transmission model with applications to Democratic Republic of Congo

Nonlinear Analysis, 2023
In this paper, a dynamical model of malaria transmission with vector-bias and timedependent controls is investigated. The controls include the RTS,S malaria vaccine, using insecticide-treated mosquito net, treatment of infectious human, and indoor ...

Understanding the gap between access and use: a qualitative study on barriers and facilitators to insecticide-treated net use in Ghana

Malaria Journal, 2019
Background Mass and continuous distribution channels have significantly increased access to insecticide-treated nets (ITNs) in Ghana since 2000. Despite these gains, a large gap remains between ITN access and use. Methods A qualitative research study was
