“…Aedes-transmitted diseases, especially dengue, are increasing throughout the world and the main preventive methods include vector control and the avoidance of mosquito bites. A simple Premise Condition Index (PCI) categorizing shade, house, and yard conditions was previously developed to help prioritize households or geographical areas where resources are limited. …”

“…LAY ABSTRACT: Cutaneous leishmaniasis is a disease caused by single-cell parasites in the genus Leishmania which results in painful skin ulcers and is spread by insect bites. Drugs containing antimony are the mainstay therapy for cutaneous leishmaniasis, but if and how the amount of these compounds in the cells can affect the success of the treatment, remains unknown. …”
