Anopheles gambiae s.s. resistance to pyrethroids and DDT in semi-urban and rural areas of the Moyen-Ogooué Province, Gabon.

Background: Pyrethroids are the main insecticides used in vector control for malaria. However, their extensive use in the impregnation of long-lasting insecticidal nets (LLINs) and indoor residual spraying has led to the development of resistance, threatening its success as a tool for malaria control. Baseline data prior to large scale distribution of LLINs are important for the implementation of efficient strategies.

A new approach for CW-TSCPC to improve its safety and efficacy in glaucoma treatment.

Purpose: The goal of our study was to compare the outcomes of transscleral diode cyclophotocoagulation using a new protocol with new settings. In fact, we targeted the ciliary body guided by transillumination, reduced the energy applied at each spot, and enlarged the treatment area posteriorly from the pars plicata to the pars plana.

Patients And Methods: Data were collected retrospectively from two groups of glaucoma patients.
