ATTRACTION OF LUTZOMYIA LONGIPALPIS TO SYNTHETIC SEX-AGGREGATION PHEROMONE: EFFECT OF RELEASE RATE AND PROXIMITY OF ADJACENT PHEROMONE SOURCES.

Attraction of Lutzomyia longipalpis to synthetic sex-aggregation pheromone: Effect of release rate and proximity of adjacent pheromone sources.

In South America, the Protist parasite that causes visceral leishmaniasis, a potentially fatal human disease, is transmitted by blood-feeding female Lutzomyia longipalpis sand flies.A synthetic copy of the male produced sex-aggregation pheromone offers new opportunities for vector control applications.We have previously shown that the pheromone pla

Reproducibility, reliability and validity of population-based administrative health data for the assessment of cancer non-related comorbidities.

BACKGROUND:Patients with comorbidities do not receive optimal treatment for their cancer, leading to lower cancer survival.Information on individual comorbidities is not straightforward to derive from population-based administrative health datasets.We described the development of a reproducible algorithm to extract the individual Charlson index com
