Sentence examples for measures of vector from inspiring English sources

Some measures of vector control include: A yeast trap can be used for monitoring infestations of certain species of triatomine bugs (Triatoma sordida, Triatoma brasiliensis, Triatoma pseudomaculata, and Panstrongylus megistus).

During the year (2008) in which abundance data was methodically collected and WNV prevalence was high, measures of Vector Index and MLE values were highly correlated (Adj. R2 = 0.69, p = 1.3×10−8).

In addition, the overlap in prediction areas based on our MLE estimates and the human cases reported in our study area (see Results, Figures 2, S5) suggests that our measures of vector prevalence are successfully capturing the risk of WNV infections to secondary hosts.

Measures of vector elimination and control by draining mosquito breeding pools, application of insecticides, and bed nets have not been sufficiently effective in many cases.

RAD-based markers therefore have the great potential to advance our understanding of mosquito ecology and assist in developing appropriate measures of vector control at local and regional scales.

In terms of public health response, the sanitary military authorities decided upon a reinforcement of collective and individual measures of vector control, based on the results provided by the automated analysis of syndromic surveillance.

Satellite data are weighted by spatial density and by two different noise estimators: (a) by standard deviation along segments of the satellite track and (b) a larger-scale noise estimator defined in terms of a measure of vector activity at the geographically closest magnetic observatories to the sample point.

The parameter σ is a measure of vector preference for cattle compared to sheep: if σ<1, vectors feed preferentially on cattle, while if σ>1, they feed preferentially on sheep.

Since infection and dissemination, but not transmission were evaluated in this study, the product of these two values alone was used as a measure of vector competence (b, Table  4).

A local index based on entomological measures (abundance of vector mosquitoes and infection prevalence) would be a much more desirable indicator of transmission intensity.

Robust order-statistic concepts and statistical measure of vectors' deviation are used in conjunction with different distance measures among multichannel inputs to determine an efficient switching rule between filter output and no filtering (identity operation).
