Anopheles metabolic proteins in malaria transmission, prevention and control: a review

Parasites & Vectors, 2020
The increasing resistance to currently available insecticides in the malaria vector, Anopheles mosquitoes, hampers their use as an effective vector control strategy for the prevention of malaria transmission. Therefore, there is need for new insecticides

Combined Epidemiologic and Entomologic Survey to Detect Urban Malaria Transmission, Guinea, 2018

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2021
Malaria incidence is generally lower in cities than rural areas. However, reported urban malaria incidence may not accurately reflect the level of ongoing transmission, which has potentially large implications for prevention efforts.

ANALYSIS OF FRACTAL–FRACTIONAL MALARIA TRANSMISSION MODEL

, 2020
In this paper, the malaria transmission (MT) model under control strategies is considered using the Liouville–Caputo fractional order (FO) derivatives with exponential decay law and power-law.

Relationship Between Child Survival and Malaria Transmission: An Analysis of the Malaria Transmission Intensity and Mortality Burden Across Africa (MTIMBA) Project Data in Rufiji Demographic Surveillance System, Tanzania. [PDF]

, 2014
The precise nature of the relationship between malaria mortality and levels of transmission is unclear. Due to methodological limitations, earlier efforts to assess the linkage have lead to inconclusive results.

Implication of agricultural practices in the micro-geographic heterogeneity of malaria transmission in Bouna, Côte d’Ivoire

Malaria Journal, 2023
Background Wetlands and irrigated agricultural crops create potential breeding sites for Anopheles mosquitoes, leading to a heterogeneity in malaria transmission.

Amazon deforestation drives malaria transmission, and malaria burden reduces forest clearing

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2019
Significance Widespread human impacts on the environment are expected to harm human health, which may in turn alter our interactions with the environment.

Biologically meaningful coverage indicators for eliminating malaria transmission. [PDF]

, 2012
Mosquitoes, which evade contact with long-lasting insecticidal nets and indoor residual sprays, by feeding outdoors or upon animals, are primary malaria vectors in many tropical countries.

Mosquito feeding behavior and how it influences residual malaria transmission across Africa

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2019
Significance Malaria transmission persists even when mosquito control is used effectively. This “residual transmission” measures all forms of transmission that are beyond the reach of standard insecticidal nets and indoor residual spraying of ...

Ecology: a prerequisite for malaria elimination and eradication [PDF]

, 2010
* Existing front-line vector control measures, such as insecticide-treated nets and residual sprays, cannot break the transmission cycle of Plasmodium falciparum in the most intensely endemic parts of Africa and the Pacific * The goal of malaria ...

Mining the Human Host Metabolome Toward an Improved Understanding of Malaria Transmission

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
The big data movement has led to major advances in our ability to assess vast and complex datasets related to the host and parasite during malaria infection.
