Households or hotspots? Defining intervention targets for malaria elimination in Ratanakiri Province, eastern Cambodia Instituut voor Tropische Geneeskunde Universiteit Hasselt Universiteit Antwerpen
Background: Malaria "hotspots" have been proposed as potential intervention units for targeted malaria elimination. Little is known about hotspot formation and stability in settings outside sub-Saharan Africa.
Methods: Clustering of Plasmodium infections at the household and hotspot level was assessed over 2 years in 3 villages in eastern Cambodia. Social and spatial autocorrelation statistics were calculated to assess clustering of ...
Visceral leishmaniasis: spatiotemporal heterogeneity and drivers underlying the hotspots in Muzaffarpur, Bihar, India Instituut voor Tropische Geneeskunde
BACKGROUND: Despite the overall decrease in visceral leishmaniasis (VL) incidence on the Indian subcontinent, there remain spatiotemporal clusters or 'hotspots' of new cases. The characteristics of these hotspots, underlying transmission dynamics, and their importance for shaping control strategies are not yet fully understood and are investigated in this study for a VL endemic area of ~100,000 inhabitants in Bihar, India between ...
