	16.	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 \| Full text \| 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.

But, An. arabiensis has already developed resistance to the available insecticides, and alternative insecticides are needed.

Research *Humoral immune response to Plasmodium falciparum* vaccine candidate GMZ2 and its components in populations naturally exposed to seasonal malaria in Ethiopia** Hassen Mamo, Meral Esen, Anthony Ajua, Michael Theisen, Benjamin Mordmüller, Beyene Petros Malaria Journal 2013, 12:51 (5 February 2013) Abstract \| Full text \| PDF \| PubMed \| Editor’s summary The study was designed to investigate the nature of humoral immune response to malaria in two ethnic groups in two endemic localities. Detection of high-level antibody responses in non-febrile, smear-negative individuals may possibly be an indication of a low-grade, asymptomatic sub-microscopic infection in the induction and maintenance of high-level malaria immunity.
