Collateral benefits of restricted insecticide application for control of African trypanosomiasis on Theileria parva in cattle: a randomized controlled trial [PDF]
Tick and tsetse-borne diseases (TTBDs) constrain livestock production in tropical and subtropical regions of the world. Of this community of endemic diseases, East coast fever (T.parva) is the most important tick-borne disease (TBD) accounting for 70% of

Natural History of Chronic Kidney Disease in Sickle Cell Disease
ABSTRACT Kidney complications, referred to as nephropathy, develop early in sickle cell disease (SCD). In addition to its known morbidity, abundant data show that chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with an increased mortality risk in SCD. Increasing evidence suggests that the natural history of SCD nephropathy is progressive. Initial glomerular

Biological and pharmacological investigations of novel diamidines in animal models of human African trypanosomiasis [PDF]
"African sleeping sickness, also called human African trypanosomiasis (HAT), results from the infection of humans with either of two protozoan parasites, Trypanosoma brucei gambiense and T. b. rhodesiense. HAT is transmitted by tsetse flies (Glossina spp)

Evaluating paratransgenesis as a potential control strategy for African trypanosomiasis. [PDF]
Genetic-modification strategies are currently being developed to reduce the transmission of vector-borne diseases, including African trypanosomiasis. For tsetse, the vector of African trypanosomiasis, a paratransgenic strategy is being considered: this ...
