Sentences with word «endemicity»

Field observations from West Africa and Ethiopia have indeed established a strong correlation between absence or low endemicity of P. vivax malaria and the high prevalence of the Duffy negative allele [20, 21].

«Given the wide variation in the transmission of the disease — endemic areas, areas of low endemicity, hyperendemic areas, and sometimes these strata all occurring in the same country — we prefer to look at each country separately without aggregates over the entire continent,» Buj says.

Second, the proposed future effects of rising temperatures on endemicity are at least one order of magnitude smaller than changes observed since about 1900 and up to two orders of magnitude smaller than those that can be achieved by the effective scale - up of key control measures.

The unusual living habits and high degree of endemicity makes this spider a rare and remarkable species.

A probability map of areas exceeding 1 % prevalence (the threshold used to define podoconiosis endemicity) was also developed (Deribe et al., 2015d).

The full scientific paper introducing the new map, World Malaria Map: Plasmodium falciparum Endemicity in 2007, is available here, on PlosMedicine.

... the proposed future effects of rising temperatures on endemicity are at least one order of magnitude smaller than changes observed since about 1900 and up to two orders of magnitude smaller than those that can be achieved by the effective scale - up of key control measures.

Predictions of an intensification of malaria in a warmer world, based on extrapolated empirical relationships or biological mechanisms, must be set against a context of a century of warming that has seen marked global declines in the disease and a substantial weakening of the global correlation between malaria endemicity and climate.

The research reported in PLoS Pathogens suggests that the endemicity of any microbe, caused by genetic specialization, could be a marker for future extinction.

That sort of interface between heartworm and endemicity, like the southeast and other regions of the country, is spreading northward and increasing northward.

Certainly, in certain parts of this country ticks are more important vectors than mosquitoes, but with heartworm considered and its endemicity in the southeast, you would probably have to say that heartworm and the risk of exposure to mosquitoes is probably more important than ticks.

First, widespread claims that rising mean temperatures have already led to increases in worldwide malaria morbidity and mortality are largely at odds with observed decreasing global trends in both its endemicity and geographic extent.
