To identify the critical vector density that potentiates dengue outbreaks in an endemic site
and to identify obstacles to anti-dengue activities, we correlated a series of dengue …

ABSTRACT OBJECTIVE: To detect the presence of dengue virus in larval forms of Aedes
aegypti and to associate vector presence with rainfall and incidence of disease. METHODS …

Dengue transmission in Venezuela has become perennial and a major public health
problem. The increase in frequency and magnitude of recent epidemics prompted a …

Aedes aegypti and Ae. albopictus are vectors of dengue viruses, which cause endemic
disease in the city of Manaus, capital of the state of Amazonas, Brazil. More than 53 …

Aedes aegypti has developed evolution-driven adaptations for surviving in the domestic
human habitat. Several trap models have been designed considering these strategies and …

Background Comprehensive, longitudinal field studies that monitor both disease and vector
populations for dengue viruses are urgently needed as a pre-requisite for developing locally …

Background & objectives: Dengue is currently one of the most important arthropod-borne
diseases and may be caused by four different dengue virus serotypes (DENV-1 to DENV-4) …

Dengue fever is the most common infectious disease transmitted by a mosquito and a major
economic and disease burden in endemic countries. The reported number of dengue cases …

The introduction of dengue virus serotype 3 in december, 2001 led to the largest and most
severe epidemic of the disease in Brazil, with more than 1.2 million cases reported in 2001 …
