The importance of vector control for the control and elimination of vector-borne diseases [PDF]
PLOS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2020 Vector-borne diseases (VBDs) such as malaria, dengue, and leishmaniasis exert a huge burden of morbidity and mortality worldwide, particularly affecting the poorest of the poor. The principal method by which these diseases are controlled is through vector control, which has a long and distinguished history.

Biotechnology as applied to vectors and vector control [PDF]
Annales de Parasitologie Humaine et Comparée, 1990 Vector borne diseases remain some of the major public health problems in the developing world. In this review some of the current applications of biotechnology to vectors and vector control and some of the possible future applications are discussed.

Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Medicine, 2017 The rapid spread of mosquito resistance to currently available insecticides, and the current lack of an efficacious malaria vaccine are among many challenges that affect large-scale efforts for malaria control. As goals of malaria elimination and eradication are put forth, new vector-control paradigms and tools and/or further optimization of current ...

A research agenda for malaria eradication: vector control.
PLoS Medicine, 2011 Different challenges are presented by the variety of malaria transmission environments present in the world today. In each setting, improved control for reduction of morbidity is a necessary first step towards the long-range goal of malaria eradication ...

Computer-Aided Design, 2015 AbstractTraditionally, modelling using spline curves and surfaces is facilitated by control points. We propose to enhance the modelling process by the use of control vectors. This improves upon existing spline representations by providing such facilities as modelling with local (semi-sharp) creases, vanishing and diagonal features, and hierarchical ...

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.
