Modeling the spatial distribution of Chagas disease vectors using environmental variables and people´s knowledge
BACKGROUND: Chagas disease is caused by the protozoan Trypanosoma cruzi, which is transmitted to mammal hosts by triatomine insect vectors. The goal of this study was to model the spatial distribution of triatomine species in an endemic area. METHODS: Vector’s locations were obtained with a rural ho...
