DOI: 10.1002/tqem.22296
Abstract: Malaria has been with humans for thousands of years. It is caused by parasites of the genus Plasmodium that are transmitted by female Anopheles mosquitoes. The variation of global malaria distribution has recently been associated… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.actatropica.2017.08.014
Abstract: Although malaria morbidity and mortality are greatly reduced globally owing to great control efforts, the disease remains the main contributor. In Zambia, all provinces are malaria endemic. However, the transmission intensities vary mainly depending on… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.imu.2020.100508
Abstract: Abstract Malaria remains a serious obstacle to socio-economic development in Africa. It was estimated that about 90% of the deaths occurred in Africa, where various factors such as ecosystem and climate conditions are favorable to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41467-021-22896-5
Abstract: The scale-up of malaria control efforts has led to marked reductions in malaria burden over the past twenty years, but progress has slowed. Implementation of indoor residual spraying (IRS) of insecticide, a proven vector control… read more here.

Leveraging risk maps of malaria vector abundance to guide control efforts reduces malaria incidence in Eastern Province, Zambia

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-020-66968-w
Abstract: Although transmission of malaria and other mosquito-borne diseases is geographically heterogeneous, in sub-Saharan Africa risk maps are rarely used to determine which communities receive vector control interventions. We compared outcomes in areas receiving different indoor… read more here.

Malaria hotspots explained from the perspective of ecological theory underlying insect foraging
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2020 at "Scientific Reports"
DOI: 10.1038/s41598-020-78021-x
Abstract: Hotspots constitute the major reservoir for residual malaria transmission, with higher malaria incidence than neighbouring areas, and therefore, have the potential to form the cornerstone for successful intervention strategies. Detection of malaria hotspots is hampered… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-021-90997-8
Abstract: The current study aims to provide a fine-scale spatiotemporal estimate of malaria incidence among Cameroonian under-5, and to determine its associated environmental factors, to set up preventive interventions that are adapted to each health district… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-58287-1
Abstract: Malaria is a major health threat in sub-Sahara Africa, especially for children under five. However, there is considerable heterogeneity between areas in malaria risk reported, associated with environmental and climatic. We used data from Togo… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/21665095.2025.2481830
Abstract: ABSTRACT Despite the global, regional and country-specific efforts to combat malaria in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), it poses a significant health challenge in the region. Given the decreasing global funding for malaria control, it is essential… read more here.
