Changes in Phlebotomine Sand Fly Species Composition Following Insecticide Thermal Fogging in a Rural Setting of Western Panamá
(PLOS ONE, 2013-01-09)
American Cutaneous Leishmaniasis, ACL, is a zoonotic disease with a large richness of co-occurring vector species in transmission foci. Here, we describe changes in patterns of phlebotomine sand fly (Diptera: Psychodidae: ...
Leishmaniasis sand fly vector density reduction is less marked in destitute housing after insecticide thermal fogging
(BioMed Central, 2013)
Background: Insecticide thermal fogging (ITF) is a tool to control vector borne diseases. Insecticide application
success for vector control has been associated with housing materials and architecture. Vector abundance ...
Macroecological patterns of American Cutaneous Leishmaniasis transmission across the health areas of Panamá (1980–2012)
(Elsevier B.V, 2016-03-18)
American Cutaneous Leishmaniasis (ACL) is a neglected vector-borne zoonosis that persists despite increasing socio-economic development and urbanization in Panamá. Here, we investigate the association between environmental ...
