Anopheles mosquito exposure is associated with age, gender and bed net use in areas in Uganda experiencing varying malaria transmission intensity

2024-12-13

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Objectives</h4> The number of Anopheles mosquito bites a person receives determines the risk of acquiring malaria and the likelihood of transmitting infections to mosquitoes. We assessed heterogeneity in Anopheles biting and associated factors in two settings in Uganda with different endemicity. <h4>Methods</h4> Plasmodium falciparum parasites in blood-fed indoor caught Anopheles mosquitoes were quantified usi...
