Professionals and practitioners in global health often confront problems of planetary dimensions with comparatively meager resources. This imbalance is rarely more daunting than for those concerned with neglected tropical diseases (NTDs). By definition, NTDs do not receive the political and financial resources dedicated to the highest priorities in global health. Yet the death and disability at...

BACKGROUND Despite great achievements by insecticide-treated nets (ITNs) and indoor residual spraying (IRS) in reducing malaria transmission, it is unlikely these tools will be sufficient to eliminate malaria transmission on their own in many settings today. Fortunately, field experiments indicate that there are many promising vector control interventions that can be used to complement ITNs and...

Urban Malaria, as a specific problem in India, was first recognized in 1969, after an indepth review of the situation of malaria in India was done by Madhok Committee. However, main malaria vector in urban areas of India is An. stephensi, which was first recognized in early part of the 20 century. Many of the local bodies carrying out antilarval operations earlier failed to continue the same du...

BACKGROUND In view of the epidemiological expansion of dengue worldwide and the availability of new tools and strategies particularly for controlling the primary dengue vector Aedes aegypti, an intervention study was set up to test the efficacy, cost and feasibility of a combined approach of insecticide treated materials (ITMs) alone and in combination with appropriate targeted interventions of...

It took 10 years from the moment the last case of malaria was reported to the moment the United Arab Emirates (UAE) received certification earlier this year by the World Health Organization (WHO) that it was finally free of the debilitating disease. Eliminating malaria means stamping out endemic cases, or those due to local mosquito-borne transmission, and maintaining this situation for at leas...

BACKGROUND Malaria transmission is highly heterogeneous, generating malaria hotspots that can fuel malaria transmission across a wider area. Targeting hotspots may represent an efficacious strategy for reducing malaria transmission. We determined the impact of interventions targeted to serologically defined malaria hotspots on malaria transmission both inside hotspots and in surrounding communi...

Historical outbreaks of Rift Valley fever (RVF) since the early 1950s have been associated with cyclical patterns of the El Niño/Southern Oscillation (ENSO) phenomenon, which results in elevated and widespread rainfall over the RVF endemic areas of Africa. Using satellite measurements of global and regional elevated sea surface temperatures, elevated rainfall, and satellite derived-normalized d...
