Leishmaniases are a group of infectious diseases transmitted by phlebotomine sand flies, and their distribution depends on the presence vectors, parasites, reservoirs susceptible hosts in same environment. In last decades, visceral leishmaniasis (VL) has become urbanized reached economically important cities countries within transmission zone. Our study was conducted one those cities–Ipatinga–in state Minas Gerais, Brazil, where first autochthonous case VL dates back to 2011. Since no data...

Abstract Among neglected tropical diseases, visceral leishmaniasis (VL) shows great relevance in global terms and is a serious public health concern due to the possibility of severe lethal forms humans. In this study, we evaluate entomological factors such as diversity abundance phlebotomine sand flies (Diptera:Psychodidae) Leishmania species circulating these possible association with VL transmission Brazilian town Itaúna. The collections were performed during three consecutive nights,...

Increasing reports of high-resistant Triatominae populations concerns scientists and sanitarians as little is known about the factors behind occurrence such phenotype its real impact on vector control strategies. Moreover, utilization a large variety methodologies hinder comparison reported studies. This work aims to review laboratory bioassays, redefining assessed biological features (age, generation insecticide application area) technical procedures (mortality recording time ideal...

Visceral leishmaniasis (VL) is a neglected tropical disease, caused by Leishmania (Kinetoplastida, Trypanosomatidae) species. In Brazil, the transmission of this parasite essentially occurs through bite Lutzomyia longipalpis (Diptera: Psychodidae: Phlebotominae) previously infected with infantum. Aiming at preventing VL expansion over country, integrated control actions have been implemented Leishmaniasis Surveillance and Control Program (VLSCP). Among currently adopted program,...

INTRODUCTION: Canine visceral leishmaniasis (CVL) is an endemic disease in Brazil, and integrated control actions have been adopted by the Brazilian Ministry of Health to its spread. However, transmission profile unknown areas with recent CVL cases, including Itaúna, located state Minas Gerais, where present study was carried out. METHODS: A total 2,302 dogs from 12 neighborhoods were serologically tested for canine VL using current diagnostic protocol Health. Test positivity rate (TPR)...

Given the increase in cases of visceral leishmaniasis recent years, associated with socio-economic impact this disease, as well wide distribution Lutzomyia longipalpis Brazil and likelihood that vector may develop resistance to insecticides used for control, Ministry Health considers crucial creation a network order study monitor control.
