Abstract:
The integration of community ecology into the understanding and management of vectors and vector-borne diseases has largely occurred only recently. This compendium examines a variety of community interactions that can affect vector or vector-borne disease dynamics. They include: the importance of risk of predation, risk of ectoparasatism, competition, interactions of competition with transgenic control, apparent competition mediated through vectors, indirect effects of pesticides, vector diversity, and parasite diversity within a vector. In this paper, we summarize these studies and introduce several additional important questions in need of further exploration.

Abstract:
In recent years the incidence of many vector borne-diseases has increased worldwide. We investigate the epidemiology and evolution of vector-borne disease, focussing on the neglected tropical disease leishmaniasis to determine suitable strategies for control and prevention. We develop a compartmental mathematical model for leishmaniasis, and examine the dependence of disease spread on model parameters. We perform an elasticity analysis to establish the relative impact of disease parameters and pathways on infection spread and prevalence. We then use optimal control theory to determine optimal vaccination and spraying strategies for leishmaniasis, and assess the dependence of control on disease relapse. We investigate the evolution of virulence in vector-borne disease using adaptive dynamics and both non-spatial and metapopulation models for disease spread. Using our metapopulation model we also determine the impact of land-use change such as urbanisation and deforestation on disease spread and prevalence. We find that in the absence of evolution, control techniques which directly reduce the rate of vector transmission lead to the greatest reduction in potential disease spread. Although the spraying of insecticide can reduce the basic reproductive number $R_{0}$, we find that vaccination is more effective. Disease relapse is the driving force behind infection at endemic equilibrium and greatly increases the level of control required to prevent a disease epidemic. When a trade-off is in place between transmission and virulence we find that control techniques which reduce the duration of transmission lead to the fixation of pathogen strains with heightened virulence. Control techniques such as spraying can therefore be counterproductive, as increasing virulence increases human infection prevalence. This holds true when virulence is in either the host or vector and suggests that virulence within the vector should not be ignored. Urbanisation and deforestation can also lead to increases in both transmission and virulence, as reducing the distance between urban settlements and the vector natural habitat alters disease incidence.

Abstract:
Recently researchers have recognized the potential effects of climate variability and climate change on infectious disease ecology. Mosquito-borne diseases are of considerable concern due to their reliance on temperature to regulate vector reproduction, survival, and vector and agent development. Precipitation is also influential because it helps maintain habitat for immature mosquitoes. The interactions between climate, vector, and agent are complex, however, and thus assessing the overall impact of climate on disease occurrence is difficult. Discerning the influence of climate on mosquito-borne diseases requires an interdisciplinary synthesis of knowledge about the relationships between components of the disease system and analysis techniques that account for the individual and interacting roles that each element contributes to the ecology of the disease. In this dissertation, climate and climate change influences on dengue fever and West Nile virus are identified through process based modeling to simulate changes in vector and viral transmission dynamics. Analysis of the literature pertaining to climate influences on dengue virus ecology reveals that climate variables often interact interdependently to influence dengue virus transmission. Statistical techniques correlating or modeling climate-dengue relationships are often inconsistent and location specific. Process based modeling has been employed to better simulate the intricacies and non-linear dynamics involved, but most models focus only on vector populations. Therefore, models should incorporate viral development and transmission components to better simulate dengue virus ecology. A model of West Nile virus vector dynamics across the southern United States reveals that impacts from climate change are very location and context-specific. While temperatures generally increase the season length of vector activity, changes in precipitation and evapotranspiration dynamics often lead to lower summer mosquito populations and limited population development in water-stressed areas. A simulation of dengue fever cases in San Juan County, Puerto Rico with a coupled vector-epidemiological model showed strong agreement when compared with reported case data (Willmott's d = 0.90 and r2 = 0.71). The model indicates that certain climate variables became disease limiting during specific times of the year. Temperature limits virus transmission during the winter by slowing viral development while lower precipitation limits spring transmission by suppressing vector populations.

Abstract:
Vector-borne diseases (VBDs) cause significant harm to humans, plants, and animals worldwide. For instance, VBDs are very difficult to manage, as they are governed by complex interactions. VBD transmission depends on the pathogen itself, vector-host movement, and environmental conditions. Mosquito-borne diseases are a perfect example of how all these factors contribute to changes in VBD dynamics. Although vectors are highly sensitive to climate, modeling studies tend to ignore climate effects. Here, I am interested in the arthropod small vectors that are sensitive to climate factors such as temperature, precipitation, and drought. In particular, I am looking at the effect of temperature on vector traits for two VBDs, namely, dengue, caused by a virus that infects humans and bluetongue disease, caused by a virus that infects ruminants. First, I collect data on mosquito traits' response to temperature changes, this includes adult traits as well as juvenile traits. Next, I use these traits to model mosquito density, and then I incorporate the density into our mathematical models to investigate the effect it has on the basic reproductive ratio R0, a measure of how contagious the disease is. I use R0 to determine disease risk. For dengue, my results show that using mosquito life stage traits response to temperature improves our vector density approximation and disease risk estimates. For bluetongue, I use midge traits response to temperature to show that the suitable temperature for bluetongue risk is between 21.5 �C and 30.7 �C. These results can inform future control and prevention strategies.

Dissertação de Mestrado Integrado em Medicina Veterinária
This dissertation aimed to identify and molecularly characterize vector-borne pathogens from several parasite families, all possessing stages found in peripheral blood, from a wide variety of free-ranging carnivores living in Namibia, in the southern part of Africa. Blood samples collected from 9 bat-eared foxes (Otocyon megalotis), 17 brown hyenas (Parahyaena brunnea), 19 spotted hyenas (Crocuta crocuta) and 85 cheetahs (Acinonyx jubatus) were screened by Polymerase Chain Reactions (PCRs) and tested for pathogens of the Onchocercidae family, the order Piroplasmida, bacteria from the Anaplasmataceae and the Rickettsiaceae families and, lastly, the Hepatozoidae family. The PCRs targeted both the ITS-2 and 12S, 18S, 16S, 18S and 18S rRNA genes respectively and were followed by nucleotide sequencing. In total, sampled animals showed a 43.1% rate of Onchocercidae infection, 67.7% of Piroplasmida, 60% of them were positive for Anaplasmataceae, 10% for Rickettsiaceae and Hepatozoidae were detected in 47.7% of them. Obtained filaroid sequences showed high homologies with both Acanthocheilonema reconditum and Acanthocheilonema dracunculoides and further phylogenetic analysis were performed in both brown and spotted hyenas, with the construction of a phylogenetic tree. Piroplasmida results were not studied any further. For Anaplasmataceae, subsequent sequencing results indicated high similarity with both Anaplasma phagocytophilum and Anaplasma platys and varied PCR protocols were conducted in order to differentiate between these organisms, but no conclusions were reached. The Rickettsiaceae found displayed high homologies with Rickettsia raoultii. And finally, the Hepatozoidae infection showed to be a mixed one with both Hepatozoon canis and Hepatozoon felis. These results are important not only on a conservation level for the infected host species, but are also relevant for domestic animals coexisting in the surrounding areas, as well as humans, especially since a few of the parasites found may have zoonotic potential. Future studies should focus on understanding vectors, transmission routes, infection dynamics and host specificity in order to better evaluate the possible danger these infections may withhold.
RESUMO - Agentes patogénicos transmitidos por vetores presentes em carnívoros na Namíbia - Esta dissertação teve como principal objetivo identificar e caracterizar molecularmente agentes patogénicos transmitidos por vetores de várias famílias parasitárias, com o aspeto em comum de todas possuírem fases do desenvolvimento encontradas no sangue, de espécies variadas de carnívoros selvagens que habitam na Namíbia, no Sul de África. Foram testadas amostras sanguíneas de 9 raposas-orelhas-de-morcego (Otocyon megalotis), 17 hienas-castanhas (Parahyaena brunnea), 19 hienas-malhadas (Crocuta crocuta) e 85 chitas (Acinonyx jubatus) por PCR e analisadas para pesquisa de parasitas da família Onchocercidae, da ordem Piroplasmida, bactérias das famílias Anaplasmataceae e Rickettsiaceae e, finalmente, da família Hepatozoidae. Os PCRs foram direcionados aos genes do rRNA ITS-2 e 12S, 18S, 16S, 18S e 18S respetivamente e foram seguidos de sequenciação de nucleótidos. Na totalidade, os animais testados mostraram uma taxa de infeção de 43.1% por Onchocercidae, de 67.7% de Piroplasmida, 60% deles tiveram resultados positivos para Anaplasmataceae, 10% para Rickettsiaceae e Hepatozoidae foram detetados em 47.7% da população. As sequências obtidas de filarídeos, mostraram possuir elevadas homologias com Acanthocheilonema reconditum e Acanthocheilonema dracunculoides, e estudos filogenéticos mais intensivos foram realizados, nomeadamente uma árvore filogenética que inclui ambas as espécies de hienas. Os resultados relativos a Piroplasmida não foram aprofundados. Para as Anaplasmataceae, as sequenciações subsequentes indicaram elevada similaridade com Anaplasma phagocytophilum e Anaplasma platys e múltiplos protocolos de PCRs foram efetuados, com o intuito de diferenciar entre estas duas espécies, mas não foram retiradas quaisquer conclusões. As Rickettsiaceae presentes evidenciaram fortes semelhanças com Rickettsia raoultii. E finalmente, as infeções por Hepatozoidae mostraram ser uma infeção mista por ambos Hepatozoon canis e Hepatozoon felis. A importância destes resultados não se limita apenas à conservação das espécies animais em causa, mas são também relevantes em termos dos animais domésticos coabitantes na mesma região, assim como humanos, especialmente tendo em conta o possível potencial zoonótico de algumas espécies parasitárias. Estudos futuros devem ter como principais objetivos o estudo dos vetores respetivos, tipo de transmissão, dinâmica da infeção e especificidade parasitária, para melhor avaliar os possíveis perigos que podem advir da presença destes parasitas.

Abstract:
Institutions involved in vector-borne diseases research, epidemiological studies as well as vaccine development require reliable and sensitive assays to support the development of vaccine products and new drugs for treatment. These diagnostic assays also aid in identifying disease control target populations, and to monitor infection during trials for assessing the efficacy of preventive or curative drug. Molecular techniques such as the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification have been used in detecting parasites of several species, sub-species and types and are favoured over microscopic examination of blood or the immunological methods because of their superior sensitivity and higher throughput. Two of the most commonly used diagnostic methods, microscopy and molecular techniques for pathogen detection and species characterization, were evaluated for their sensitivity and specificity and subsequently used in screening cattle for parasites in the blood of cattle kept under traditional mixed farming management system. Molecular methods revealed higher VBD prevalence in the cattle from the villages of Tororo and Busia districts of SE Uganda. The prevalence of trypanosome species pathogenic to livestock was found to be higher than previously documented in this area. Based on the data obtained by PCR amplification the effect of prophylactic drug intervention against trypanosomiasis was assessed over a period of six months. While isometamidium chloride treatment of cattle appeared to control trypanosomiasis in areas with low prevalence, the drug had no effect in controlling the disease in high prevalence areas. It would therefore be necessary to combine the use of drug intervention with other methods such as vector control, to reduce the prevalence, in order to realize effective control of trypanosomiasis.

Abstract:
Public health surveillance data are often incomplete, particularly where resources are lacking, but geospatial models can help to fill the gaps by providing estimates where data are sparse. By combining information on locations where diseases have been recorded with geographic data on environmental and socioeconomic covariates known to affect disease transmission using machine-learning models (such as boosted regression trees), niche modelling can generate fine-resolution, evidence-based risk maps for a variety of diseases of public health importance. This thesis investigates the geographical distribution of two vector-borne, zoonotic diseases of public health importance: Plasmodium knowlesi malaria and yellow fever (YF). A number of new methodological approaches to niche modelling are developed for: mapping diseases whose distributions are impacted by multiple host and vector species, ameliorating spatial bias in disease reporting rates, and accounting for human vaccination coverage. Chapter 2 investigates spatial variation in risk of human P. knowlesi infection across Southeast Asia. The infection risk model for P. knowlesi malaria is based on improvements to a standard niche modelling approach, and incorporates a novel joint distribution model to leverage data from a number of host species. Chapter 3 estimates YF vaccination coverage through time across all age cohorts in every district/municipality of countries at risk of YF, globally. These estimates are used to estimate the additional vaccination coverage needed to prevent further YF outbreaks, and they provide information needed to account for population immunity when estimating YF infection risk. Chapter 4 describes the development of a novel Poisson point process niche model, which is then used to predict YF infection risk in humans and demonstrates how vaccination coverage can be efficiently accounted for in disease niche models. The disease risk maps of P. knowlesi malaria and YF produced through this thesis will act as resources to improve the targeting, implementation and evaluation of disease prevention, surveillance and control strategies. Methods developed to account for vaccination coverage, reporting rate biases, and complex transmission systems will be applicable to risk mapping for a range of vector-borne, zoonotic diseases of public health importance.

Vector-borne diseases not only cause devastating economic losses, they also significantly impact human health in terms of morbidity and mortality. From an economical and humane point of view, mitigation and control of vector-borne diseases are essential. Studying dynamics of vector-borne disease transmission is a challenging task because vector-borne diseases show complex dynamics impacted by a wide range of ecological factors. Understanding these factors is important for the development of mitigation and control strategies. Mathematical models have been commonly used to translate assumptions concerning biological (medical, demographical, behavioral, immunological) aspects into mathematics, linking biological processes of transmission and dynamics of infection at population level. Mathematical analysis translates results back into biology. Classical deterministic epidemic models do not consider spatial variation, assuming space is homogeneous. Spatial spread of vector-borne diseases observed many times highlights the necessity of incorporating spatial dynamics into mathematical models. Heterogeneous demography, geography, and ecology in various regions may result in different epidemiological characteristics. Network approach is commonly used to study spatial evolution of communicable diseases transmitted among connected populations. In this dissertation, the spread of vector-borne diseases in time and space, is studied to understand factors that contribute to disease evolution. Network-based models have been developed to capture different features of disease transmission in various environments. Network nodes represent geographical locations, and the weights represent the level of contact between regional pairings. Two competent vector populations, Aedes mosquitoes and Culex mosquitoes, and two host populations, cattle and humans were considered. The deterministic model was applied to the 2010 Rift Valley fever outbreak in three provinces of South Africa. Trends and timing of the outbreak in animals and humans were reproduced. The deterministic model with stochastic parameters was applied to hypothetical Rift Valley fever outbreak on a large network in Texas, the United States. The role of starting location and size of initial infection in Rift Valley fever virus spread were studied under various scenarios on a large-scale network. The reproduction number, defined as the number of secondary infections produced by one infected individual in a completely susceptible population, is typically considered an epidemic threshold of determining whether a disease can persist in a population. Extinction thresholds for corresponding Continuous-time Markov chain model is used to predict whether a disease can perish in a stochastic setting. The network level reproduction number for diseases vertically and horizontally transmitted among multiple species on heterogeneous networks was derived to predict whether a disease can invade the whole system in a deterministic setting. The complexity of computing the reproduction number is reduced because the expression of the reproduction number is the spectral radius of a matrix whose size is smaller than the original next generation matrix. The expression of the reproduction number may have a wide range of applications to many vector-borne diseases. Reproduction numbers can vary from below one to above one or from above one to below one by changing movement rates in different scenarios. The observations provide guidelines on executing movement bans in case of an epidemic. To compute the extinction threshold, corresponding Markov chain process is approximated near disease free equilibrium. The extinction threshold for Continuous-time Markov chain model was analytically connected to the reproduction number under some assumptions. Numerical simulation results agree with analytical results without assumptions, proposing a mathematical problem of proving the existence of the relationships in general. The distance of the extinction threshold were shown to be closer to one than the reproduction number. Consistent trends of probability of extinction varying with disease parameters observed through numerical simulations provide novel insights into disease mitigation, control, and elimination.

Abstract:
We examine the role of Venezuelan forced migration on the propagation of 15 infectious dis-eases in Colombia. For this purpose, we use rich municipal-monthly panel data. We exploit the fact that municipalities closer to the main migration entry points have a disproportionate ex-posure to infected migrants when the cumulative migration flows increase. We find that higher refugee inflows are associated with increments in the incidence of vaccine-preventable dis-eases, such as chickenpox and tuberculosis, as well as sexually transmitted diseases, including AIDS and syphilis. However, we find no significant effects of migration on the propagation of vector-borne diseases. Contact with infected migrants upon arrival seems to be the main driving mechanism.
