RBM Vector Control Working Group Optimizing Evidence for Vector Control Interventions Work Stream
نویسندگان
چکیده
The main areas of work being covered by the Work Stream are: 1. Developing testing guidelines for new VC paradigms: • The Work Stream is working closely with (External Scientific Advisory Committee) ESAC3 of IVCC and WHO on issues related to the development of new vector control interventions, including draft testing guidelines. • The Work Stream aims to develop with IVCC a similar working relationship to that between the Continuous Distribution Work Stream and the NetWorks Project. • New paradigms include: (1) spatial and individual repellents, (2) indoor spatial repellents in Indonesia and (3) attractive toxic sugar baits.

The doubly-fed generators (DFIG) have clear superiority for the applications of large capacity and limited-range speed control case due to the partially rated inverter, lower cost and high reliability. These characteristics enable the doubly-fed wound rotor induction machine to have vast applications in wind-driven generation.In this paper Combined Vector and direct power control (CVDPC) strate...
متن کاملEvidence-based vector control? Improving the quality of vector control trials.
Vector-borne diseases (VBDs) such as malaria, dengue, and leishmaniasis cause a high level of morbidity and mortality. Although vector control tools can play a major role in controlling and eliminating these diseases, in many cases the evidence base for assessing the efficacy of vector control interventions is limited or not available. Studies assessing the efficacy of vector control interventi...
