    Sammanfattning : Background: Great strides have been made in combating malaria, however, the indicators in sub Saharan Africa still do not show promise for elimination in the near future as malaria infections still result in high morbidity and mortality among children. The abundance of the malaria-transmitting mosquito vectors in these regions are driven by climate suitability. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Background Surgery has traditionally been considered more expensive than many other health care interventions and with little impact on the burden of disease in a global perspective. One of the reasons behind this misconception is that the effects of surgical conditions and their treatment have not been factored into the equation. LÄS MER

  7. 10. The influence of urban livestock-keeping on the epidemiology of mosquito-borne zoonotic flaviviruses in Hanoi city of Vietnam

    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; urban livestock-keeping; mosquito borne zoonotic flaviviruses; knowledge and practices; vector abundance; risk factors; Hanoi; Vietnam;

    Sammanfattning : In rapid urbanizing cities, the high density of livestock populations in close vicinity to humans, and high mosquito vector abundance have provided suitable conditions for transmission of mosquito-borne zoonotic flaviviruses, that cause several million cases of human disease annually. This thesis explores the urban livestock-keeping in Hanoi and its potential influence on the epidemiology of flavivirus infections. LÄS MER
