Distribution and Seasonal Variation of Phlebotomus and Sergentomyia Sand Fly Populations in Bhutan
Am J Trop Med Hyg. 2024 Apr 9:tpmd230125. doi: 10.4269/ajtmh.23-0125. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTLeishmaniasis is considered one of the neglected tropical diseases in the world. Although Bhutan is a member of the visceral leishmaniasis elimination consortium in South Asia, not much attention has been accorded to the disease because of its low incidence. The vector that transmits Leishmania remains poorly understood. In this backdrop, sand-fly surveys were regularly conducted at multiple sites where leishmaniasis cases have been reported in Bhutan. Collections were made using CDC light traps and cattle-baited net traps i...

Leveraging seasonal influenza health worker vaccination programmes for COVID-19 vaccine Introduction: A global qualitative analysis
CONCLUSIONS: Our findings suggest a strong justification for enhanced investment in vaccination of health workers, particularly against seasonal influenza, through country-wide programmes as a foundation for pandemic preparedness and response.PMID:38531724 | DOI:10.1016/j.vaccine.2023.12.044 (Source: Vaccine)

The role of place and manner of articulation in Kurt öp tonogenesis: refining the model
This study examines the role that sonority and place of articulation have in the spread of tone from voicing contrasts on preceding consonants in Kurtöp. First, we find that tone is more likely to be produced following fricatives than when following stops. Second, we see that within the stops, tone phonologises more readily following some places of articulation over others. Taken as a whole, this shows us that tone is moving through Kurtöp, following the most sonorous segments first and moving to the least sonorous segments. These findings thus help us refine our theory of tonogenesis and show that functional pressures h...
