Risk and protective factors of Leishmaniasis in the rural area of the western border region of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil

Gabriela Dowich Pradella et al.

Summary: The study evaluated the risk and protective factors of leishmaniasis in the rural areas of the western border region of Rio Grande do Sul state, Brazil by detecting Leishmania spp. protozoa molecularly and serologically in equine and canine blood samples. The results showed 16.81% of positive samples, with good hygiene and location factors being identified as key in preventing Leishmania infection.

Space-time risk cluster of visceral leishmaniasis in Brazilian endemic region with high social vulnerability: An ecological time series study

Caique J. N. Ribeiro et al.

Summary: This study analyzed the spatiotemporal dynamics of visceral leishmaniasis (VL) cases and its association with social vulnerability in the Brazilian Northeast region. The results showed that VL continues to spread heterogeneously, with space-time high-risk clusters in the most socially vulnerable areas. Increasing trends of new cases were observed among male subjects >= 40 years of age and urban residents. This findings could contribute to better understanding of disease distribution and prioritization of municipalities with higher vulnerability for VL prevention, surveillance, and control.

Environmental and socioeconomic risk factors for visceral and cutaneous leishmaniasis in Sao Paulo, Brazil

Nerida Nadia H. Valero et al.

Summary: Leishmaniasis, a vector-borne disease caused by Leishmania spp., is influenced by various factors such as vegetation cover, climate, and socioeconomic factors. Studies have shown that high vegetation cover, economic inequality, precipitation, and other factors are associated with the probability of leishmaniasis occurrence, highlighting the need for effective public health policies and interventions based on these risk factors.

Inequalities of visceral leishmaniasis case-fatality in Brazil: A multilevel modeling considering space, time, individual and contextual factors

Glaucia Cota et al.

Summary: This study in Brazil investigated the factors associated with visceral leishmaniasis (VL) case-fatality, revealing a linear increasing temporal trend in VL case-fatality rates from 2007 to 2017. In addition to known individual risk factors, factors like low education level, lack of emergency beds and health professionals, and delayed treatment initiation were identified as possibly related to VL death risk. The study also found that lower VL incidence was associated with higher VL case-fatality, suggesting the impact of unfamiliarity with the disease on medical management.
