  • Disparities in dietary intake and physical activity patterns across the urbanization divide in the Peruvian Andes 
    McCloskey, Morgan L.; Tarazona-Meza, Carla E.; Jones-Smith, Jessica C.; Miele, Catherine H.; Gilman, Robert Hugh; Bernabé Ortiz, Antonio; Miranda, J. Jaime; Checkley, William (BioMed Central, 2017)
    BACKGROUND: Diet and activity are thought to worsen with urbanization, thereby increasing risk of obesity and chronic diseases. A better understanding of dietary and activity patterns across the urbanization divide may ...
  • Genetic diversity of Nyssorhynchus (Anopheles) darlingi related to biting behavior in western Amazon 
    Campos, M.; Alonso, D.P.; Conn, J.E.; Vinetz, Joseph Michael; Emerson, K.J.; Ribolla, P.E.M. (BioMed Central, 2019)
    BACKGROUND: In the Amazon Basin, Nyssorhynchus (Anopheles) darlingi is the most aggressive and effective malaria vector. In endemic areas, behavioral aspects of anopheline vectors such as host preference, biting time and ...
  • Global and regional effects of potentially modifiable risk factors associated with acute stroke in 32 countries (INTERSTROKE): a case-control study 
    O'Donnell, Martin-J.; Chin, Siu-Lim; Rangarajan, Sumathy; Xavier, Denis; Liu, Lisheng; Zhang, Hongye; Rao-Melacini, Purnima; Zhang, Xiaohe; Pais, Prem; Agapay, Steven; Lopez-Jaramillo, Patricio; Damasceno, Albertino; Langhorne, Peter; McQueen, Matthew-J.; Rosengren, Annika; Dehghan, Mahshid; Hankey, Graeme-J.; Dans, Antonio-L.; Elsayed, Ahmed; Avezum, Alvaro; Mondo, Charles; Diener, Hans-Christoph; Ryglewicz, Danuta; Czlonkowska, Anna; Pogosova, Nana; Weimar, Christian; Iqbal, Romaina; Diaz, Rafael; Yusoff, Khalid; Yusufali, Afzalhussein; Oguz, Aytekin; Wang, Xingyu; Penaherrera, Ernesto; Lanas, Fernando; Ogah, Okechukwu-S.; Ogunniyi, Adesola; Iversen, Helle-K.; Málaga Rodríguez, Germán Javier; Rumboldt, Zvonko; Oveisgharan, Shahram; Al-Hussain, Fawaz; Magazi, Daliwonga; Nilanont, Yongchai; Ferguson, John; Pare, Guillaume; Yusuf, Salim (Elsevier, 2016)
    BACKGROUND: Stroke is a leading cause of death and disability, especially in low-income and middle-income countries. We sought to quantify the importance of potentially modifiable risk factors for stroke in different regions ...
  • Identification of Blood Meals from Potential Arbovirus Mosquito Vectors in the Peruvian Amazon Basin 
    Palermo, Pedro-M.; Aguilar, Patricia-V.; Sanchez, Juan-F.; Zorrilla, Victor; Flores-Mendoza, Carmen; Huayanay, Anibal; Guevara, Carolina; Lescano Guevara, Andres Guillermo; Halsey, Eric-S. (American Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2016)
    The transmission dynamics of many arboviruses in the Amazon Basin region have not been fully elucidated, including the vectors and natural reservoir hosts. Identification of blood meal sources in field-caught mosquitoes ...
  • Identification of bloodmeal sources of Lutzomyia spp. in Peru 
    Ogusuku, E.; Perez, Jorge; Paz, Lourdes; Nieto, Elizabteh; Monje, Julio; Guerra, Humberto (Taylor and Francis, 1994)
    Bloodmeal sources of Lutzomyia spp. were determined, using the bloodmeal analysis precipitin test, in Chaute, Lima, Peru, an area endemic for cutaneous leishmaniasis (uta). From April 1990 to May 1991, sandflies were ...
  • Intensive trapping of blood-fed Anopheles darlingi in Amazonian Peru reveals unexpectedly high proportions of avian blood-meals 
    Moreno, Marta; Saavedra Romero, Marlon Pierino; Bickersmith, Sara A.; Prussing, Catharine; Michalski, Adrian; Tong Rios, Carlos; Vinetz, Joseph Michael; Conn, Jan E. (Public Library of Science, 2017)
    Anopheles darlingi, the main malaria vector in the Neotropics, has been considered to be highly anthropophilic. However, many behavioral aspects of this species remain unknown, such as the range of blood-meal sources. ...
  • Ontogenetic Changes in the Diet and Head Morphology of an Omnivorous Tropidurid Lizard (Microlophus thoracicus) 
    Toyama, Ken S.; Junes, Karina; Ruiz, Jorge; Mendoza, Alejandro; Pérez Zuñiga, Jose Miguel (Elsevier, 2018)
    Ontogenetic shifts from an insectivorous diet towards an herbivorous one are well known in lizards. Energetic, behavioral and morphological factors have been linked to this pattern, but the latter have received less ...
  • Quantifying the childhood and adolescent overnutrition attributable to specific risk factors: The Young Lives Study in Peru. 
    Bernabé Ortiz, Antonio; Mendoza Quispe, Daniel Enrique; Jimenez, M Michelle; Ugaz, Maria Elena; Rojas-Dávila, Carlos E (Wiley, 2023)
    OBJECTIVE: Launching priority actions demand a comprehensive appraisal of the size effect that risk factors have on the burden of overweight and obesity. This study aimed to estimate the incidence of overweight and obesity ...
  • Taste, Salt Consumption, and Local Explanations around Hypertension in a Rural Population in Northern Peru 
    Pesantes Villa, María Amalia; Diez-Canseco Montero, Francisco; Bernabé Ortiz, Antonio; Ponce-Lucero, Vilarmina; Miranda, J. Jaime (MDPI, 2017)
    Interventions to promote behaviors to reduce sodium intake require messages tailored to local understandings of the relationship between what we eat and our health. We studied local explanations about hypertension, the ...
  • Temporal differences in blood meal detection from the midguts of Triatoma infestans 
    Pinto, J.; Roellig, D.M.; Gilman, Robert Hugh; Calderón Sánchez, Maritza Mercedes; Bartra, C.; Salazar Sánchez, Renzo Sadath; Bern, C.; Ancca-Juárez, J.; Levy, M.; Naquira Velarde, Cesar Gabriel; Cama, V. (Instituto de Medicina Tropical de São Paulo, 2012)
    We used genus/species specific PCRs to determine the temporal persistence of host DNA in Triatoma infestans experimentally fed on blood from six common vertebrate species: humans, domestic dogs, guinea pigs, chickens, mice, ...
