Modelling malaria elimination on the internet [PDF]

Malaria Journal, 2011
Se están realizando esfuerzos sin precedentes para eliminar la malaria. La modelización matemática puede ayudar a determinar las estrategias óptimas para la eliminación de la malaria en diferentes entornos epidemiológicos. Esto es necesario, ya que hay un margen limitado para estudios de campo costosos y que consumen mucho tiempo, y es probable que el ...

Malaria Trigram: improving the visualization of recurrence data for malaria elimination [PDF]

Malaria Journal, 2021
Abstract Background Although considerable success in reducing the incidence of malaria has been achieved in Brazil in recent years, an increase in the proportion of cases caused by the harder-to-eliminate Plasmodium vivax parasite can be noted. Recurrences in P. vivax malaria cases are due to new mosquito-bite infections,

How effective is integrated vector management against malaria and lymphatic filariasis where the diseases are transmitted by the same vector? [PDF]

, 2014
The opportunity to integrate vector management across multiple vector-borne diseases is particularly plausible for malaria and lymphatic filariasis (LF) control where both diseases are transmitted by the same vector.
