Seasonal intermittent preventive treatment with artesunate and sulfadoxine-pyrimethamine for prevention of malaria in Senegalese children: a randomised, placebo-controlled, double-blind trial

• Badara Cissé, C Sokhna, +13 authors Jean-François Trape
• The Lancet
• 2006

BACKGROUND In the Sahel and sub-Sahelian regions of Africa, malaria transmission is highly seasonal. During a short period of high malaria transmission, mortality and morbidity are high in children… (More)

Effective control of dengue vectors with curtains and water container covers treated with insecticide in Mexico and Venezuela: cluster randomised trials.

• Axel Kroeger, Audrey Lenhart, +4 authors Philip J McCall
• BMJ
• 2006

OBJECTIVES To measure the impact on the dengue vector population (Aedes aegypti) and disease transmission of window curtains and water container covers treated with insecticide. DESIGN Cluster… (More)

Reduction of Malaria Transmission to Anopheles Mosquitoes with a Six-Dose Regimen of Co-Artemether

• Colin J. Sutherland, Rosalynn Ord, +7 authors Geoffrey A. T. Targett
• PLoS medicine
• 2005

BACKGROUND Resistance of malaria parasites to chloroquine (CQ) and sulphadoxine-pyrimethamine (SP) is increasing in prevalence in Africa. Combination therapy can both improve treatment and provide… (More)

Role of flies and provision of latrines in trachoma control: cluster-randomised controlled trial

• Paul M Emerson, Steve W Lindsay, +8 authors Robin L. Bailey
• The Lancet
• 2004

BACKGROUND Eye-seeking flies have received much attention as possible trachoma vectors, but this remains unproved. We aimed to assess the role of eye-seeking flies as vectors of trachoma and to test… (More)

Social Contact Patterns in Vietnam and Implications for the Control of Infectious Diseases

• Peter Horby, Pham Quang Thai, +10 authors Nguyen Tran Hien
• PloS one
• 2011

BACKGROUND The spread of infectious diseases from person to person is determined by the frequency and nature of contacts between infected and susceptible members of the population. Although there is… (More)

Combination therapy counteracts the enhanced transmission of drug-resistant malaria parasites to mosquitoes.

• Rachel L. Hallett, Colin J. Sutherland, +7 authors Ali Alloueche
• Antimicrobial agents and chemotherapy
• 2004

Malaria parasites carrying genes conferring resistance to antimalarials are thought to have a selective advantage which leads to higher rates of transmissibility from the drug-treated host. This is a… (More)

Ovalocytosis and cerebral malaria

• Blaise Genton, Fadwa AI-Yaman, +4 authors David Mokela
• Nature

Seasonal carriage of pfcrt and pfmdr1 alleles in Gambian Plasmodium falciparum imply reduced fitness of chloroquine-resistant parasites.

• Rosalynn Ord, Neâl Alexander, +5 authors Colin J. Sutherland
• The Journal of infectious diseases
• 2007

BACKGROUND Observations in natural Plasmodium falciparum populations after removal of failing drugs suggest that there is a fitness cost of drug resistance. METHODS To examine the effect of… (More)

Incidence and risk factors of paediatric rotavirus diarrhoea in northern Ghana.

• Fred Newton Binka, Francis Anto, +11 authors Miren Iturriza-Gómara
• Tropical medicine & international health : TM…
• 2003

We measured the type-specific incidence of paediatric rotavirus diarrhoea in an area of northern Ghana. Over 1 year, diarrhoea 1717 episodes were identified, of which 677 (39%) were positive for… (More)

Insecticide-treated bednets for the prevention of Plasmodium falciparum malaria in Cambodia: a cluster-randomized trial.

• Tho Sochantha, Sean E Hewitt, +6 authors Doung 7 Socheat
• Tropical medicine & international health : TM…
• 2006

OBJECTIVES To validate and quantify the impact of insecticide-treated bednets (ITN) on malaria morbidity and mortality in Cambodia. METHODS A paired, cluster-randomized trial of ITN was conducted… (More)
