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.

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

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.

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.

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 ...

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.

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.

Antibody acquisition models: a new tool for serological surveillance of malaria transmission intensity [PDF]
, 2016 Serology has become an increasingly important tool for the surveillance of a wide range of infectious diseases. It has been particularly useful to monitor malaria transmission in elimination settings where existing metrics such as parasite prevalence and
