1. Biting myself so I don’t bite the dust: prevalence and predictors of deliberate self-harm and suicide ideation in Azorean youths
Objective: To characterize non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) behaviors, methods, and functions as well as suicide ideation in the adolescent population of a Portuguese community in São Miguel Island, Azores. Increasing rates of NSSI behaviors among adolescents have been observed globally, while suicidal behavior has been pointed as a major cause of death dur

2. High malaria transmission in a forested malaria focus in French Guiana: How can exophagic Anopheles darlingi thwart vector control and prevention measures?
In French Guiana, malaria vector control and prevention relies on indoor residual spraying and distribution of long lasting insecticidal nets. These measures are based on solid epidemiological evidence but reveal a poor understanding of the vector. The current study investigated the behaviour of both vectors and humans in relation to the ongoing prevention s

3. Malaria entomological risk factors in relation to land cover in the Lower Caura River Basin, Venezuela
To explore the effects of deforestation and resulting differences in vegetation and land cover on entomological parameters, such as anopheline species composition, abundance, biting rate, parity and entomological inoculation rate (EIR), three villages were selected in the Lower Caura River Basin, state of Bolívar, Venezuela. All-night mosquito collections w

4. ESTUDO DA RECRIA DE NOVILHAS DE CORTE EM PASTAGENS CULTIVADAS DE VERÃO / STUDY OF BEEF HEIFERS REARING ON WARM-SEASON PASTURES
Heifers rearing is a determinant step of efficiency in beef cattle production systems on pastures. Several experiments have tested alternative uses for tropical grasses to heifers rearing. In order to summarize results and making not visible relationships evident in these individual experiments an analysis was performed in a set of data from six experiments

5. Potential impact of a presumed increase in the biting activity of dengue-virus-infected Aedes aegypti (Diptera: Culicidae) females on virus transmission dynamics
Recently, we showed that infection with dengue virus increases the locomotor activity of Aedes aegypti females. We speculate that the observed increased locomotor activity could potentially increase the chances of finding a suitable host and, as a consequence, the relative biting rate of infected mosquitoes. We used a mathematical model to investigate the im

6. Comportamento ingestivo de diferentes categorias de bovinos de corte em pastagens nativas e exóticas durante seca no Pantanal.
Este estudo objetivou avaliar o comportamento ingestivo de diferentes categorias de bovinos de corte (vacas, novilhas e bezerros desmamados) criados em pastagens cultivadas e nativas submetidas a diferentes estratégias de manejo, durante período de seca no Pantanal. A study was carried out to evaluate the ingestive behavior of beef cattle belonging to diff

7. Fatores entomológicos envolvidos na transmissão de malária em comunidades da área de abrangência da Hidrelétrica de Curuá-una, Santarém, Pará, Brasil
An entomological survey was conducted in the area of influence of Hydroelectric Curuá-una, Pará State, to study the occurrence and behavior of species of Anopheles. We analyzed the records of the 9th Regional Health Centre (9 CRS / SESPA) and the obtained data on the incidence, distribution and behavior of species of epidemiological importance, and on the

8. Malaria entomological inoculation rates in gold mining areas of Southern Venezuela
A longitudinal study of malaria vectors aiming to describe the intensity of transmission was carried out in five villages of Southern Venezuela between January 1999-April 2000. The man-biting, sporozoite and entomological inoculation rates (EIR) were calculated based on 121 all-night collections of anophelines landing on humans, CDC light traps and ultra vio

9. Anopheles darlingi bionomics and transmission of Plasmodium falciparum, Plasmodium vivax and Plasmodium malariae in Amerindian villages of the Upper-Maroni Amazonian forest, French Guiana
French Guiana is one of the areas in South America most affected by malaria and where the disease has become a serious public health problem. In spite of this situation, little recent entomological data are available from the main localities where the disease occurs, even though they are crucial for development of an effective vector control strategy. A long

10. Vector bionomics and malaria transmission in the Upper Orinoco River, Southern Venezuela
A longitudinal epidemiological and entomological study was carried out in Ocamo, Upper Orinoco River, between January 1994 and February 1995 to understand the dynamics of malaria transmission in this area. Malaria transmission occurs throughout the year with a peak in June at the beginning of the rainy season. The Annual Parasite Index was 1,279 per 1,000 po

11. Man biting rate seasonal variation of malaria vectors in Roraima, Brazil
Malaria control has been directed towards regional actions where more detailed knowledge of local determinants of transmission is of primary importance. This is a short report on range distribution and biting indices for Anopheles darlingi and An. albitarsis during the dry and rainy season that follows river level variation in a savanna/alluvial forest malar

12. Longitudinal evaluation of repellent activity of Ocimum gratissimum (Labiatae) volatile oil against Simulium damnosum
To determine the repellent activity of Ocimum gratissimum volatile oil against Simulium damnosum (blackflies), a 12 month (January-December 2003) field study was conducted in three onchocerciasis endemic communities (Idomido, Obio camp, and Ikot Adaha) in Ini Local Government Area of Akwa Ibom State, Nigeria. The result revealed that topical application of 2
