Background: Triatomines are responsible for the vector transmission of the protozoan parasite Trypanosoma cruzi, which causes Chagas disease. Triatoma brasiliensis is the main vector of the parasite in Brazil, and dogs are an important reservoir of the parasite. The aim of this study was to evaluate the ...

Background:
The sustainable elimination of Triatoma infestans in the Gran Chaco region represents an enduring challenge. Following the limited effects of a routine pyrethroid insecticide spraying campaign conducted over 2011–2013 (first period) in Avia Terai, an endemic municipality with approximately ...
Abstract
Background: Triatomine control campaigns have traditionally consisted of spraying the inside of houses with
pyrethroid insecticides. However, exposure to sublethal insecticide doses after the initial application is a common
occurrence and may have phenotypic consequences for survivors. Here, usi...
In the last 15 years, different types of Triatominae resistance to different insecticides have been reported; thus, resistance may be more widespread than known, requiring better characterization and delimitation, which was the aim of this review. This review was structured on a literature search of all ...
Introduction: Triatoma recurva is a Trypanosoma cruzi vector whose distribution and biological development are determined by factors that may influence the transmission of trypanosomiasis to humans. Objective: To identify the potential spatial distribution of Triatoma recurve, as well as social factors d...
Abstract The Triatomini tribe consists of ten genera and is regarded as one of the most important tribes from epidemiological point of view. The genus Dipetalogaster Usinger, 1939 is composed only by the species Dipetalogaster maxima Uhler, 1894. This triatomine is exclusive of the Mexico and is a potent...
Esta revisão integrativa tem como objetivo analisar as publicações científicas nos últimos doze anos sobre triatomíneos encontrados no Estado do Ceará. Para tal, nos bancos de dados da Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde (BVS) foi realizada uma busca com associação dos descritores “Doença de Chagas...
Objetivo: identificar potenciais vetores da doença de Chagas na região do Maciço de Baturité, Ceará. Métodos: no período de2014 a 2018, foi realizado estudo parasitológico em fezes de triatomíneos para Trypanosoma cruzi, em oito municípios da região do maciço de Baturité. Os triatomíneos fo...

Abstract INTRODUCTION Triatomine bugs are hematophagous insects that are extremely important in public health because they are natural vectors of Trypanosoma cruzi, the causative agent of Chagas disease. In this study, we aimed to assess the occurrence of triatomine species and the natural T. cruzi inf...
Abstract INTRODUCTION: Triatomine bugs are vectors of Trypanosoma cruzi, the etiological agent of Chagas disease. METHODS: Triatomine bugs were collected and identified following established protocols. In addition, infection with T. cruzi was detected by microscopic and molecular analysis. RESULTS: We...
