	1.	Research A dynamic model of some malaria-transmitting anopheline mosquitoes of the Afrotropical region. II. Validation of species distribution and seasonal variations Torleif M Lunde, Meshesha Balkew, Diriba Korecha, Teshome Gebre-Michael, Fekadu Massebo, Asgeir Sorteberg, Bernt Lindtjørn Malaria Journal 2013, 12:78 (25 February 2013) Abstract \| Provisional PDF \| PubMed \| Editor’s summary Validation of a mathematical model described earlier. Overall, the model gives a realistic representation of seasonal and year-to-year variability in mosquito densities and it can accurately predict the distribution of An. gambiae s.s. and An. arabiensis in sub-Saharan Africa. It may be used for seasonal and long-term predictions of changes in the burden of malaria.
	2.	Research Blood meal origins and insecticide susceptibility of Anopheles arabiensis from Chano in South-West Ethiopia Fekadu Massebo, Meshesha Balkew, Teshome Gebre-Michael, Bernt Lindtjørn Parasites & Vectors 2013, 6:44 (22 February 2013) Abstract \| Provisional PDF \| PubMed \| Editor’s summary The greater tendency of An. arabiensis to feed on cattle justifies the application of insecticides on cattle to provide a significant protection from malaria infection. But, An. arabiensis has already developed resistance to the available insecticides, and alternative insecticides are needed.

	3.	Research article Chronic fatigue syndrome 5 years after giardiasis: differential diagnoses, characteristics and natural course Kristine Mørch, Kurt Hanevik, Ann C Rivenes, Jørn E Bødtker, Halvor Næss, Bjarte Stubhaug, Knut-Arne Wensaas, Guri Rortveit, Geir E Eide, Trygve Hausken, Nina Langeland BMC Gastroenterology 2013, 13:28 (12 February 2013) Abstract \| Provisional PDF \| PubMed

	6.	Research Enhanced cognitive function and antidepressant-like effects after krill oil supplementation in rats Karin Wibrand, Kjetil Berge, Michaël Messaoudi, Anaïs Duffaud, Debabrata Panja, Clive R Bramham, Lena Burri Lipids in Health and Disease 2013, 12:6 (25 January 2013) Abstract \| Provisional PDF \| PubMed
	7.	Research A dynamic model of some malaria-transmitting anopheline mosquitoes of the Afrotropical region. I. Model description and sensitivity analysis Torleif Markussen Lunde, Diriba Korecha, Eskindir Loha, Asgeir Sorteberg, Bernt Lindtjørn Malaria Journal 2013, 12:28 (23 January 2013) Abstract \| Provisional PDF \| PubMed \| Editor’s summary This study highlights some of the assumptions commonly used when constructing mosquito-malaria models and presents a realistic model of Anopheles gambiae s.s. and Anopheles arabiensis, and their interaction. The authors make a case that this new mosquito model, OMaWa, may improve the understanding of vector dynamics, which in turn can be used to better understand the dynamics of malaria.
	8.	Research article A population based validation study of self-reported pensions and benefits: the Nord-Trøndelag health study (HUNT) Solbjørg Makalani Myrtveit, Anja M S Ariansen, Ingvard Wilhelmsen, Steinar Krokstad, Arnstein Mykletun BMC Research Notes 2013, 6:27 (23 January 2013) Abstract \| Full text \| PDF \| PubMed
	9.	Methodology A novel, single-amplification PCR targeting mitochondrial genome highly sensitive and specific in diagnosing malaria among returned travellers in Bergen, Norway Christel G Haanshuus, Stein C Mohn, Kristine Mørch, Nina Langeland, Bjørn Blomberg, Kurt Hanevik Malaria Journal 2013, 12:26 (22 January 2013) Abstract \| Full text \| PDF \| PubMed \| Editor’s summary The paper details a side by side comparison of three PCR primer sets and the quanitification of their limits of detection with a defined set of samples. A good example of how such tests should be carried out, given a lack of critical evaluations of such procedures in the literature base.
	10.	Research Freely distributed bed-net use among Chano Mille residents, south Ethiopia: a longitudinal study Eskindir Loha, Kebede Tefera, Bernt Lindtjørn Malaria Journal 2013, 12:23 (18 January 2013) Abstract \| Full text \| PDF \| PubMed \| Editor’s summary The objective of this study was to characterize the pattern related to ITN use in one village in south Ethiopia. A huge discrepancy was reported between ownership versus utilization of insecticide-treated bed nets (ITNs). To acquire the benefits of ITNs, households need to use and not merely own them.
	11.	Research How malaria models relate temperature to malaria transmission Torleif Markussen Lunde, Mohamed Nabie Bayoh, Bernt Lindtjørn Parasites & Vectors 2013, 6:20 (18 January 2013) Abstract \| Provisional PDF \| PubMed \| Editor’s summary With global warming a reality, we show how the projected changes in malaria transmission will depend on which Anopheles mortality model is used to make such predictions.
