We analyzed the geographic distribution using ecological niche modeling of three species of
triatomines distributed in the Mexican state of Puebla. Punctual records were gathered for a …

Ecological niche modeling of Triatominae bugs allow us to establish the local risk of
transmission of the parasite Trypanosoma cruzi, which causes Chagas disease. This …

Identifying morphologically similar triatomine species is key to Chagas' disease vector
control and surveillance, but remains challenging when only qualitative phenotypic data are …

Chagas disease is a serious public health problem in Ecuador, where nearly 230,000
individuals show Trypanosoma cruzi infection. Sylvatic T. cruzi transmission is a threat to …

One of the most daunting challenges for Chagas disease surveillance and control in Mexico
is the lack of community level data on vector distributions. Although many states now have …

We analyzed the possible effects of global climate change on the potential geographic
distribution in Venezuela of five species of triatomines (Eratyrus mucronatus (Stal, 1859) …

Background Chagas disease is caused by the protozoan Trypanosoma cruzi, which is
transmitted to mammal hosts by triatomine insect vectors. The goal of this study was to …

Chagas disease, a major public health problem in Latin America, is caused by the protozoan
parasite Trypanosoma cruzi and transmitted by hematophageous insects from the …

Chagas disease is one of the most important yet neglected parasitic diseases in Mexico and
is transmitted by Triatominae. Nineteen of the 31 Mexican triatomine species have been …

Chagas disease represents a significant public health problem in Mexico. In the state of
Hidalgo, studies on the presence of triatomines are scarce and restricted to a few locations …
