   The use of insecticide-treated nets for reducing malaria morbidity among children aged 6-59 months, in an area of high malaria transmission in central Côte d'Ivoire

   Relevance:

   ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: Long-lasting insecticidal nets (LLINs) are an important tool for controlling malaria. Much attention has been devoted to determine both the effect of LLINs on the reduction of Pl

   Bottlenecks and the maintenance of minor genotypes during the life cycle of <em>Trypanosoma brucei</em>

   Relevance:

   African trypanosomes are digenetic parasites that undergo part of their developmental cycle in mammals and part in tsetse flies. We established a novel technique to monitor the population dynamics of

   A virosomal malaria peptide vaccine elicits a long-lasting sporozoite-inhibitory antibody response in a phase 1a clinical trial

   Relevance:

   OBJECTIVES: Peptides delivered on the surface of influenza virosomes have been shown to induce solid humoral immune responses in experimental animals. High titers of peptide-specific antibodies were a

   Prevalence and risk factors of helminths and intestinal protozoa infections among children from primary schools in western Tajikistan

   Relevance:

   ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: Intestinal parasitic infections represent a public health problem in Tajikistan, but epidemiological evidence is scarce. The present study aimed at assessing the extent of helmin
