Fèvre, Eric M.Woolhouse, Mark E.J.Davila, J.Grace, DeliaKang'ethe, Erastus K.Kariuki, S.Kyobutungi, C.Robinson, Timothy P.Rushton, JonathanTacoli, C.[Epidemiology, ecology and socio-economics of disease emergence in Nairobi]Epidemiology, ecology and socio-economics of disease emergence in Nairobi

Geographic information systems (GIS) and remote sensing were used to identify villages at high risk for sleeping sickness, as defined by reported incidence. Landsat Enhanced Thematic Mapper (ETM) satellite data were classified to obtain a map of land cover, and the Normalised Difference Vegetatio...


Odiit, M.Bessell, P.R.Fèvre, Eric M.Robinson, Timothy P.Kinoti, J.Coleman, P.G.Welburn, S.C.McDermott, John J.Woolhouse, Mark E.J.[Using remote sensing and geographic information systems to identify villages at high risk for rhodesiense sleeping sickness in Uganda]Using remote sensing and geographic information systems to identify villages at high risk for rhodesiense sleeping sickness in Uganda

The Kenyan East African zebu cattle are valuable and widely used genetic resources. Previous studies using microsatellite loci revealed the complex history of these populations with the presence of taurine and zebu genetic backgrounds. Here, we estimate at genome-wide level the genetic compositio...


Mbole-Kariuki, Mary N.Sonstegard, T.S.Orth, AlanThumbi, S.M.Bronsvoort, B.M. de C.Kiara, Henry K.Toye, Philip G.Conradie, I.Jennings, A.Coetzer, K.Woolhouse, Mark E.J.Hanotte, Olivier H.Tapio, M.[Genome-wide analysis reveals the ancient and recent admixture history of East African Shorthorn Zebu from Western Kenya]Genome-wide analysis reveals the ancient and recent admixture history of East African Shorthorn Zebu from Western Kenya

Endemic stability is an epidemiological state of a population, in which clinical disease is scarce despite high level of infection. The notion was developed to describe patterns of tick-borne disease in cattle. However, we propose a general, nodes of endemic stability that is applicable to a broa...

Kiara, Henry K.Bronsvoort, B.M. de C.Hanotte, Olivier H.Coetzer, J.A.W.Toye, Philip G.Woolhouse, Mark E.J.[The Infectious Diseases of East Africa Livestock (IDEAL)]The Infectious Diseases of East Africa Livestock (IDEAL)

To formally quantify the level of under-detection of Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense sleeping sickness (SS) during an epidemic in Uganda, a decision tree (under-detection) model was developed; concurrently, to quantify the subset of undetected cases that sought health care but were not diagnosed, ...

In natural populations, individuals may be infected with multiple distinct pathogens at a time. These pathogens may act independently or interact with each other and the host through various mechanisms, with resultant varying outcomes on host health and survival. To study effects of pathogens and...

The presence of bluetongue virus (BTV) and Epizootic Haemorrhagic Disease virus (EHDV) in indigenous calves in western Kenya was investigated. Serum was analysed for BTV and EHDV antibodies. The population seroprevalences for BTV and EHDV for calves at 51 weeks of age were estimated to be 0.942 (...
