Treated nets vs house spraying.
Editor – In a recent letter (1) Dr Christian Lengeler dismisses as invalid our comparisons (2) of recent trials with pyrethroid-treated nets versus trials 20–40 years ago with house spraying of non-pyrethroid insecticides. One of his reasons is that the initial intensities of malaria transmission were different in the trials compared. Lengeler may postulate that the lower intensity of transmiss...
متن کاملTrends in the selection of insecticide resistance in Anopheles gambiae s.l. mosquitoes in northwest Tanzania during a community randomized trial of longlasting insecticidal nets and indoor residual spraying
Anopheles gambiae s.l. (Diptera: Culicidae) in Muleba, Tanzania has developed high levels of resistance to most insecticides currently advocated for malaria control. The kdr mutation has almost reached fixation in An. gambiae s.s. in Muleba. This change has the potential to jeopardize malaria control interventions carried out in the region. Trends in insecticide resistance were monitored in two...

متن کاملThe Economic Value of Long-Lasting Insecticidal Nets and Indoor Residual Spraying Implementation in Mozambique
AbstractMalaria-endemic countries have to decide how much of their limited resources for vector control to allocate toward implementing long-lasting insecticidal nets (LLINs) versus indoor residual spraying (IRS). To help the Mozambique Ministry of Health use an evidence-based approach to determine funding allocation toward various malaria control strategies, the Global Fund convened the Mozamb...
