Experimental Study on Plasmodium berghei, Anopheles Stephensi, and BALB/c Mouse System: Implications for Malaria Transmission Blocking Assays.
Conclusion: This study helps to understand the biology of vertebrate-parasite and mosquito-malaria interactions that may aid in the development of a new generation of drug/vaccine and vector-based measures for malaria control. PMID: 30697308 [PubMed]

The Role of Molecular Techniques on Malaria Control and Elimination Programs in Iran: A Review Article.
Conclusion: The application of molecular methods may be of particular interest for malaria control/elimination programs, for monitoring progress towards malaria elimination, and for optimal orientation of program activities. PMID: 30069199 [PubMed]

Impact of malaria vector control interventions at the beginning of malaria elimination stage in a dominant area of An.anthropophagus,Hubei Province, China.
Abstract Three towns with similar socio-ecological characteristics, malaria morbidities, and populations were selected for this study to explore economic and effective malaria control measures. The sources of infection were controlled in each town. Impregnated mosquito nets with 2.5% deltamethrin (15 mg/m2) combined with residual spraying of 5% cypermethrin (25mg/m2) was implemented in cattle and pig pens, as well as in crowded sites in Chenji, whereas the mosquito nets were treated with 2.5% deltamethrin only in Guanqiao Town. All the control measures implemented in Fengling (control town) were the same as those ...

Tick-borne infections of animals and humans: a common ground.
Abstract A wide variety of pathogens is transmitted from ticks to vertebrates including viruses, bacteria, protozoa and helminths. of which most have a life cycle that requires passage through the vertebrate host. Tick-borne infections of humans, farm and companion animals are essentially associated with wildlife animal reservoirs. While some flying insect-borne diseases of humans such as malaria, filariasis and Kala Azar caused by Leishmania donovani target people as their main host, major tick-borne infections of humans, although potentially causing disease in large numbers of individuals, are typically an infri...
