Background Approaches in malaria risk mapping continue to advance in scope with the
advent of geostatistical techniques spanning both the spatial and temporal domains. A …

During the last decade, scale-up of vector control tools such as long-lasting insecticidal nets
(LLINs) and indoor residual spraying (IRS) contributed to the reduction of malaria morbidity …

Background As global progress to reduce malaria transmission continues, it is increasingly
important to track changes in malaria incidence rather than prevalence. Risk estimates for …

Background The rapid and unplanned urbanization of African cities is considered to
increase the risk of urban malaria transmission. The present study objective was to assess …

Despite the deployment of several effective control interventions in central-western Senegal,
residual malaria transmission is still occurring in some hotspots. To better tailor targeted …

Background Reactive malaria strategies are predicated on the assumption that individuals
infected with malaria are clustered within households or neighbourhoods. Despite the …

Abstract Background Because clustering of Plasmodium falciparum infection had been
noted previously, the clustering of infection was examined at four field sites in West Africa …

Background Evidence of insecticide resistance has been documented in different malaria
endemic areas. Surveillance studies to allow prompt investigation of associated factors to …

Background This study aimed to assess the spatial distribution of Anopheles mosquito larval
habitats and the environmental factors associated with them, as a prerequisite for the …

Molecular surveillance of antimalarial drug resistance markers has become an important
part of resistance detection and containment. In the current climate of multidrug resistance …
