The number of reported malaria cases transmitted by Anopheles mosquitoes in the Republic of Korea (ROK) increased from 420 in 2022 to 746 in 2023, a 77.6% increase. Eight Anopheles species are currently reported in the ROK, including six species belonging to the Anopheles Hyrcanus Group and one species each belonging to the Barbirostris Group and Lindesayi Group.

Background: Hearing loss (HL) among older adults is a major global health concern. Hearing aids (HAs) offer an effective solution to manage HL and enhance the quality of life. However, the adoption and the consistent use of HAs remain low, making non-use a significant barrier to successful audiological rehabilitation.

Members of the Anopheles Hyrcanus Group, Culex pipiens complex, and Culex tritaeniorhynchus are prevalent vector species in the Republic of Korea (ROK), transmitting Plasmodium vivax and various arboviruses. Extensive use of insecticides to control these mosquitoes has led to insecticide resistance. In this study, we monitored 3 target site mutations associated with insecticide resistance (kdr for pyrethroid resistance, ace1 for organophosphate resistance, and rdl for phenylpyrazole resistance) in these mosquito groups over four consecutive years to understand the seasonal dynamics of resistance in different areas with distinct ecological characteristics.

Article Synopsis
- The outbreak of Monkeypox (Mpox), especially the clade 1b variant, has become a significant global health issue, particularly in Africa, which is experiencing ongoing epidemics that require urgent attention and study.
- This research analyzes data from the most affected African countries, using time series techniques to predict Mpox trends and assess the growth in new cases from August 2023 to August 2024.
- Results indicate a worrying upward trend in Mpox cases, with projections suggesting nearly 6,923 cumulative cases in about 65 weeks, highlighting the need for ongoing monitoring and tailored public health responses to manage the outbreak effectively.
