Vectors and Vector‐Borne Diseases: Biology, Epidemiology and Integrated Control Strategies
Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 150, Issue 7, Page 990-1015, August 2026.ABSTRACT Vector‐Borne Diseases (VBDs), transmitted by arthropods such as mosquitoes, ticks, fleas and sandflies, represent a significant threat to global health. These diseases can be caused by a variety of pathogens, including bacteria, viruses, protozoa, and helminths.

Comparison of novel sandfly control interventions: a pilot study in Bangladesh
, 2021 In this pilot comparative study, we investigated and compared the effects of existing vector control tools on sandfly densities and mortality to inform and support the National Kala-azar Elimination Program (NKEP). The interventions included insecticidal

Tropical Medicine &International Health, Volume 31, Issue 8, Page 1057-1065, August 2026.ABSTRACT Visceral leishmaniasis (VL) is a human neglected tropical disease in which dogs participate as reservoirs of the etiological agent Leishmania chagasi. The identification of infected dogs is important to the control of VL, and recombinant proteins are strong antigen candidates for canine visceral leishmaniasis (CVL) serodiagnosis. In this work,

Applied Organometallic Chemistry, Volume 40, Issue 7, July 2026.1,2‐Disubstituted ferrocene analogues bearing hydantoin or rhodanine synthons were synthesised and assessed for antitrypanosomatid activity. An antileishmanial early lead, analogue 23, acting through ROS generation and hence oxidative stress, was uncovered.

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 4, July 2026.This study investigated the epidemiology, risk factors and spatial distribution of cutaneous leishmaniasis in District Bajaur, Pakistan. Higher prevalence was observed among young males during summer, with lesions mainly on exposed body parts. Spatial analysis identified Khar, Loe Mamund and Salarzai as hotspots, highlighting the need for targeted ...

The effects of host-vector relationships and density dependence on the epidemiology of visceral leishmaniasis [PDF]
In Latin America, visceral leishmaniasis (VL) is caused by infection with Leishmania infantum, an endemic but lethal parasite transmitted by Lutzomyia longipalpis sandflies.

Thymus and Leishmania at the Crossroads: Autoimmunity and Cancer
Immunology, Volume 178, Issue 3, Page 377-386, July 2026.Conceptual ‘Crossroads Model’ linking Leishmania, thymic infection and immune dysregulation: an integrative model is proposed in which Leishmania infection disrupts thymic architecture and stromal–thymocyte interactions. These alterations converge to promote defective tolerance, increased autoimmune risk and a microenvironment permissive to malignant ...
