  • Assessing malaria transmission in a low endemicity area of north-western Peru 
    Rosas-Aguirre, Angel; Llanos Cuentas, Elmer Alejandro; Speybroeck, Niko; Cook, Jackie; Contreras-Mancilla, Juan; Soto, Veronica; Gamboa Vilela, Dionicia Baziliza; Pozo, Edwar; Ponce, Oscar J.; Pereira, Mayne O.; Soares, Irene S.; Theisen, Michael; D'Alessandro, Umberto; Erhart, Annette (BioMed Central, 2013)
    Background: Where malaria endemicity is low, control programmes need increasingly sensitive tools for monitoring malaria transmission intensity (MTI) and to better define health priorities. A cross-sectional survey was ...
  • Modelling the potential of focal screening and treatment as elimination strategy for Plasmodium falciparum malaria in the Peruvian Amazon Region 
    Rosas-Aguirre, Angel; Erhart, Annette; Llanos Cuentas, Elmer Alejandro; Branch, Oralee; Berkvens, Dirk; Abatih, Emmanuel; Lambert, Philippe; Frasso, Gianluca; Rodriguez, Hugo; Gamboa Vilela, Dionicia Baziliza; Sihuincha, Moises; Rosanas-Urgell, Anna; D'Alessandro, Umberto; Speybroeck, Niko (BioMed Central, 2015)
    BACKGROUND: Focal screening and treatment (FSAT) of malaria infections has recently been introduced in Peru to overcome the inherent limitations of passive case detection (PCD) and further decrease the malaria burden. ...
  • Patterns of selection on Plasmodium falciparum erythrocyte-binding antigens after the colonization of the New World 
    Yalcindag, Erhan; Rougeron, Virginie; Elguero, Eric; Arnathau, Céline; Durand, Patrick; Brisse, Sylvain; Diancourt, Laure; Aubouy, Agnes; Becquart, Pierre; D'Alessandro, Umberto; Fontenille, Didier; Gamboa Vilela, Dionicia Baziliza; Maestre, Amanda; Ménard, Didier; Musset, Lisie; Noya, Oscar; Veron, Vincent; Wide, Albina; Carme, Bernard; Legrand, Eric; Chevillon, Christine; Ayala, Francisco J.; Renaud, Francois; Prugnolle, Franck (Wiley, 2014)
    Pathogens, which have recently colonized a new host species or new populations of the same host, are interesting models for understanding how populations may evolve in response to novel environments. During its colonization ...
  • Population Genetics of Plasmodium vivax in the Peruvian Amazon 
    Delgado Ratto, Christopher; Gamboa Vilela, Dionicia Baziliza; Soto-Calle, Veronica-E.; Van-den-Eede, Peter; Torres, Eliana; Sanchez-Martinez, Luis; Contreras-Mancilla, Juan; Rosanas-Urgell, Anna; Rodriguez-Ferrucci, Hugo; Llanos Cuentas, Elmer Alejandro; Erhart, Annette; Van-Geertruyden, Jean-Pierre; D'Alessandro, Umberto (Public Library of Science, 2016)
    BACKGROUND: Characterizing the parasite dynamics and population structure provides useful information to understand the dynamic of transmission and to better target control interventions. Despite considerable efforts for ...
  • Population structure and spatio-temporal transmission dynamics of Plasmodium vivax after radical cure treatment in a rural village of the Peruvian Amazon 
    Delgado Ratto, Christopher; Soto-Calle, Veronica E.; Van Den Eede, Peter; Gamboa Vilela, Dionicia Baziliza; Rosas, Angel; Abatih, Emmanuel N.; Rodriguez Ferrucci, Hugo; Llanos Cuentas, Elmer Alejandro; Van Geertruyden, Jean-Pierre; Erhart, Annette; D'Alessandro, Umberto (BioMed Central, 2014)
    Background: Despite the large burden of Plasmodium vivax, little is known about its transmission dynamics. This study explored the population structure and spatio-temporal dynamics of P. vivax recurrent infections after ...
  • Traditional Nets Interfere with the Uptake of Long-Lasting Insecticidal Nets in the Peruvian Amazon: The Relevance of Net Preference for Achieving High Coverage and Use 
    Grietens, Koen P.; Muela Ribera, Joan; Soto, Veronica; Tenorio, Alex; Hoibak, Sarah; Aguirre, Angel Rosas; Toomer, Elizabeth; Rodriguez, Hugo; Llanos Cuentas, Elmer Alejandro; D'Alessandro, Umberto; Gamboa Vilela, Dionicia Baziliza; Erhart, Anette (Public Library of Science, 2013)
    While coverage of long-lasting insecticide-treated nets (LLIN) has steadily increased, a growing number of studies report gaps between net ownership and use. We conducted a mixed-Methods: social science study assessing the ...
