Factors influencing the pattern of imported malaria (Publications)
imported malaria in industrialized areas are known to be incomplete because of underreporting and lack of homogeneity. These facts and the complexity of factors influencing the transmission of malaria render [...] duration of stay on the latency of malaria attacks. African origin and repeated stays were confounders with regard to adherence to chemoprophylaxis. The local situation of malaria transmission and the development [...] to influence the evolution of malaria rates. These factors must be...
Exploring the contributions of bed nets, cattle, insecticides and excitorepellency to malaria control: a deterministic model of mosquito host-seeking... (Publications)
Domestic and personal protection measures against malaria exposure either divert host-seeking vectors to other hosts or kill those attempting to feed. Here, we explicitly model mosquito host-seeking processes [...] technology and distribution systems for insecticide-treated nets improve, massive reductions in malaria transmission could be realised
Eradication of<em> Anopheles gambiae</em> from Brazil: lessons for malaria control in Africa? (Publications)
Current malaria-control strategies emphasise domestic protection against adult mosquitoes with insecticides, and improved access to medical services. Malaria prevention by killing adult mosquitoes is generally [...] suppressed malaria for over 20 years around a Zambian copper mine. These affordable approaches were neglected after the advent of dichlorodiphenyl trichloroethane (DDT) and global malaria-control policy [...] be re-prioritised for research, development, and implementation as an...
Monitoring of malaria parasite resistance to chloroquine and sulphadoxine-pyrimethamine in the Solomon Islands by DNA microarray technology (Publications)
the SI in 2004. Patients presenting at a local clinic with microscopically confirmed P. falciparum malaria were recruited and treated with CQ+SP. Rates of treatment failure were estimated during a 28-day
