Rising reports of exophagic malaria vectors make even more pressing the need for alternatives to traditional, mesh, long-lasting insecticidal nets (LLINs) designed for indoor sleeping and often inadequate in the protection of outdoor-sleeping populations. This study tests and evaluates the retention, utilization, and durability of novel, non-mesh nets designed for outdoor use. Longitudinal, cro...

Cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) remains an important public health problem in Morocco. A cluster-randomized trial was conducted with the following three study arms: 1) long-lasting insecticide-treated nets (LLINs) plus standard of care environmental management (SoC-EM), 2) indoor residual spraying (IRS) with -cypermethrin plus SoC-EM, and 3) SoC-EM alone. Incidence of new CL cases by passive and ...

Insecticide resistance might reduce the efficacy of malaria vector control. In 2013 and 2014, malaria vectors from 50 villages, of varying pyrethroid resistance, in western Kenya were assayed for resistance to deltamethrin. Long-lasting insecticide-treated nets (LLIN) were distributed to households at universal coverage. Children were recruited into 2 cohorts, cleared of malaria-causing parasit...

28 Malaria transmission is dependent on the propensity of Anopheles mosquitoes to bite 29 humans (anthropophily) instead of other dead end hosts. Recent increases in the usage 30 of Long Lasting Insecticide Treated Nets (LLINs) in Africa have been associated with 31 reductions in highly anthropophilic vectors such as Anopheles gambiae s.s., leaving 32 less anthropophilic species such as Anophel...

Recent reductions in malaria disease burden have coincided with the massive scale-up of malaria prevention measures, of which vector control has constituted a sizeable component particularly in sub-Saharan Africa (1). In this region the proportion of households owning at least one insecticide treated net (ITN) increased from 3% in 2000 to 56% in 2012, with the estimated proportion of the popula...

Malaria is considered to be the most prevalent vectorborne disease worldwide. For its prevention, it is necessary to have an appropriate and timely care program for patients and successful integrated and selective control of the vector species (Rafinejad et al. 2008). This control in highly endemic countries relies largely on one of two main methods: insecticide-treated (mosquito) nets (ITNs) a...
