  • Understanding malaria dynamics in Benin through time series, and environmental correlation

    Open AccessSena V Alohoutade, Sena Alohoutade et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2026

    Malaria remains a significant public health concern and the leading cause of death in children under five in Benin. A comprehensive understanding of malaria's transmission patterns is essential for guiding targeted and effective interventions, such as seasonal malaria chemoprevention (SMC) and the RTS,S/AS01 vaccine toward sustainable control and elimination efforts. This study explores the temporal, spatial, and demographic patterns of malaria t…

  • Estimating the impact of the RTS,S/AS01 malaria vaccine in Benin

    Open AccessSena V Alohoutade, Sena Alohoutade et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2026

    Malaria constitutes a major public health burden in sub-Saharan Africa. It remains a key health concern and the leading cause of death in children under five in Benin. Since October 2021, the World Health Organization has recommended the use of malaria vaccines for the prevention of Plasmodium falciparum malaria in children living in malaria endemic areas, prioritizing areas of moderate and high transmission in sub-Saharan Africa. However, with t…

  • Supporting evidence-based decisions about the geographic and demographic extensions of seasonal malaria chemoprevention in Benin

    Open AccessJeanne Lemant, Clara Champagne et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2025

    Seasonal malaria chemoprevention (SMC) has been implemented yearly in northern Benin since 2019 to reduce the malaria burden in children under 5 years of age. Its geographic scope was progressively extended until in 2022 two different extensions of SMC were considered: either demographic - children aged 5–10 in the currently targeted departments would also receive SMC, or geographic to children under 5 in new eligible departments to the south. As…

  • Introducing field digital data collection systems into seasonal malaria chemoprevention campaigns

    Open AccessKanda Balla, Kezia Malm et al.ARTICLEBMJ Global Health2022

    Seasonal malaria chemoprevention (SMC) is a World Health Organization-recommended intervention to protect children under the age of 5 in Africa’s Sahel region. While SMC remains highly effective in decreasing malaria cases, implementing countries face several challenges regarding collecting quality data; monitoring coverage and compliance and overcoming delays in campaigns due to late payment to field distributors. To address these challenges, th…

  • Evidence of man-vector contact in torn long-lasting insecticide-treated nets

    Open AccessVirgile Gnanguenon, Roseric Azondékon et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2013

    At a pHI of 276, man-vector contact was observed in torn LLINs. The insecticide at the surface of LLINs could only reduce the number of vectors. Resistant mosquitoes have opportunity to enter both non-insecticidal (control) nets and LLINs to bite
