A systematic literature review of schistosomiasis in urban and peri-urban settings (Publications)
BACKGROUND: Schistosomiasis is a parasitic disease caused by trematode worms of the genus Schistosoma and belongs to the neglected tropical diseases. The disease has been reported in 78 countries, with
Accelerating towards <em>P. vivax</em> elimination with a novel serological test-and-treat strategy: a modelling case study in Brazil (Publications)
INTERPRETATION: Modelling predicts that mass campaigns with PvSeroTAT are predicted to reduce P. vivax parasite prevalence across a range of transmission settings and require fewer resources than MDA. In combination
Incidence of <em>Plasmodium falciparum</em> malaria infection in 6-month to 45-year-olds on selected areas of Bioko Island, Equatorial Guinea (Publications)
measures have been implemented on Bioko Island, Equatorial Guinea over the past 16 years, reducing parasite prevalence and malaria-related morbidity and mortality, but without achieving elimination. Malaria
Less is more: repellent-treated fabric strips as a substitute for full screening of open eave gaps for indoor and outdoor protection from malaria... (Publications)
Providing protection from malaria vector bites, both indoors and outdoors, is crucial to curbing malaria parasite transmission. Screening of house entry points, especially with incorporated insecticides, confers
Transmission and diversity of <em>Schistosoma haematobium</em> and <em>S. bovis </em>and their freshwater intermediate snail hosts <em>Bulinus... (Publications)
Schistosoma species present on the Zanzibar Archipelago until the sympatric transmission of S. bovis, a parasite of ruminants, was recently identified. Here we re-assess the epidemiology of schistosomiasis on
The effect of dose on the antimalarial efficacy of artemether-lumefantrine: a systematic review and pooled analysis of individual patient data (Publications)
falciparum recurrence by day 42, PCR-unadjusted risk of P falciparum recurrence by day 42, early parasite clearance, and gametocyte carriage. Risk factors for PCR-adjusted recrudescence were identified

Performance of a real-time PCR approach for diagnosing <em>Schistosoma haematobium</em> infections of different intensity in urine samples from... (Publications)
BACKGROUND: Efforts to control and eliminate schistosomiasis have accelerated over the past decade. As parasite burden, associated morbidity and egg excretion decrease, diagnosis with standard parasitological
