Human landing catches provide a useful measure of protective efficacy for the evaluation of volatile pyrethroid spatial repellents

Mgeni Mohamed Tambwe et al.

Summary: This study compared the efficacy of a volatile pyrethroid spatial repellent (VPSR) using a landing method and a biting method, and found that the landing method underestimated the feeding inhibition of mosquitoes. However, the protective efficacy calculated by both methods was similar.

Reflections on the 2021 World Malaria Report and the future of malaria control

April Monroe et al.

Summary: The World Malaria Report 2021 highlights the unique challenges faced by the global malaria community, revealing the underestimation of disease burden and the severity of the malaria crisis in Africa. The disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic exposed the weaknesses of health systems and inadequate financing, limiting the capacity of African countries to address malaria.

Evaluation of the protective efficacy of a spatial repellent to reduce malaria incidence in children in western Kenya compared to placebo: study protocol for a cluster-randomized double-blinded control trial (the AEGIS program)

Eric O. Ochomo et al.

Summary: This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a spatial repellent in reducing malaria incidence in a high transmission area in western Kenya. The study will be conducted as a cluster-randomized, placebo-controlled trial and will assess the efficacy of Mosquito Shield (TM) in reducing malaria transmission. The results of this study will be important for informing malaria control programs in sub-Saharan Africa.

The Centres for Disease Control light trap (CDC-LT) and the human decoy trap (HDT) compared to the human landing catch (HLC) for measuring Anopheles biting in rural Tanzania

Isaac Haggai Namango et al.

Summary: This study compared the CDC-LT and HDT against HLC for measuring Anopheles biting in rural Tanzania and assessed their suitability as HLC proxies. The study found that CDC-LT caught fewer Anopheles mosquitoes than HLC, both indoors and outdoors. The HDT was not suitable for use in large-scale entomological surveys. The use of HLC remains important for estimating human exposure to mosquitoes.

A statistical calibration tool for methods used to sample outdoor-biting mosquitoes

Halfan S. Ngowo et al.

Summary: Improved methods for sampling outdoor-biting mosquitoes are crucial for monitoring vector-borne diseases. This study developed a statistical framework for predicting human-biting rates from different exposure-free alternatives and established a valuable framework for estimating human exposures based on trap catches.

Predicting the impact of outdoor vector control interventions on malaria transmission intensity from semi-field studies

Adrian Denz et al.

Summary: Semi-field experiments with HLC as the outcome are crucial for evaluating novel vector control interventions against outdoor malaria transmission. A new stochastic model was presented to estimate the effects of products inhibiting outdoor biting, based on time-stratified HLC data. The analysis of recent semi-field studies in Kenya and Tanzania suggests that transfluthrin-treated eave ribbons provide promising community-level protection against Anopheles arabiensis.

Semi-field evaluation of the exposure-free mosquito electrocuting trap and BG-Sentinel trap as an alternative to the human landing catch for measuring the efficacy of transfluthrin emanators against Aedes aegypti

Mgeni M. Tambwe et al.

Summary: The study compared the efficacy of human landing catch, mosquito electrocuting trap, and BG-Sentinel trap in evaluating the protection effect of transfluthrin emanator against Aedes aegypti. It was found that the protective efficacy was similar among the three methods in no-choice tests but varied in choice tests with the presence of competitors, suggesting that the presence of human hosts can affect the performance of certain trap methods.
