Climate change is considered to be the most pervasive and truly global of all issues affecting humanity. It poses a serious threat to the environment, as well as to economies and societies. Whilst it is clear that the impacts of climate change are varied, scientists have agreed that its effects w...


Climate change has the potential to impact on global, regional, and national disease burdens both directly and indirectly. Projecting and valuing these health impacts is important not only in terms of assessing the overall impact of climate change on various parts of the world, but also of ensuri...


Climate change affects the fundamental bases of good human health, which are clean air, safe drinking water, sufficient food, and secure shelter. Climate change is known to impact health through three climate dimensions: extreme heat, natural disasters, and infections and diseases. The temporal a...


Clarke, ChristineGomes, CharmaineAlleyne, DillonPhillips, WillardAn assessment of the economic and social impacts of climate change on the health sector in the Caribbean

Mientras que los países desarrollados presentan un 2% de su población infectada con parásitos o enfermedades infecciosas, los países en desarrollo alcanzan el 40%. Esto está asociado a las diferencias socioeconómicas reflejadas en la nutrición, sanidad, calidad de viviendas, condiciones de trabaj...


Carbajo, Aníbal E.Evaluación de los impactos del cambio climático sobre la salud: economía del cambio climático en la Argentina

Background The emergence of Anopheles populations capable of withstanding lethal doses of insecticides has weakened the efficacy of most insecticide based strategies of vector control and, has highlighted the need for further studies on the mechanisms of insecticide resistance and the various fa...


Djouaka, R.F.Bakare, A.A.Bankole, H.S.Doannio, J.M.C.Coulibaly, O.N.Kossou, H.Tamo, M.Basene, H.I.Popoola, K..K.Akogbeto, M.C.[Does the spillage of petroleum products in Anopheles breeding sites have an impact on the pyrethroid resistance?]Does the spillage of petroleum products in Anopheles breeding sites have an impact on the pyrethroid resistance?

Background Although vector control strategies, such as insecticide-treated bed nets (ITNs) and indoor residual spraying (IRS) have been effective in Kenya the transmission of malaria continues to afflict western Kenya. This residual transmission is driven in part by Anopheles arabiensis, known fo...


Lozano-Fuentes, SaulKading, R.C.Hartman, D.A.Okoth, Edward A.Githaka, Naftaly W.Nene, VishvanathPoche, R.M.[Evaluation of a topical formulation of eprinomectin against Anopheles arabiensis when administered to Zebu cattle (Bos indicus) under field conditions]Evaluation of a topical formulation of eprinomectin against Anopheles arabiensis when administered to Zebu cattle (Bos indicus) under field conditions

Background: Knowledge on the spread and distribution of insecticide resistance in major malaria vectors such as Anopheles funestus is key to implement successful resistance management strategies across Africa. Here, by assessing the susceptibility status of an inland population of An. funestus Gi...
