Current malaria-control strategies emphasise domestic protection against adult mosquitoes
with insecticides, and improved access to medical services. Malaria prevention by killing …

Background The aim of this field trial was to evaluate the efficacy of attractive toxic sugar
baits (ATSB) in Mali, where sustained malaria transmission occurs despite the use of long …

As malaria declines in parts of Africa and elsewhere, and as more countries move towards
elimination, it is necessary to robustly evaluate the effect of interventions and control …

Background Based on highly successful demonstrations in Israel that attractive toxic sugar

Insecticide-treated nets (ITNs) and indoor residual spraying (IRS) are currently the preferred
methods of malaria vector control. In many cases, these methods are used together in the …

Knowledge of the baseline malaria transmission in a given environment is important to
guide malaria control interventions. However, in Uganda, recent information on malaria …

Background Although malaria is a leading cause of child deaths, few well-documented
