Abstract

As neglected tropical disease programs look to consolidate the successes of moving towards elimination, we need to understand the dynamics of transmission at low prevalence to inform surveillance strategies for detecting elimination and resurgence. In this special collection, modelling insights are used to highlight drivers of local elimination, evaluate strategies for detecting resurgence, and show the importance of rational spatial sampling schemes for several neglected tropical diseases (specifically schistosomiasis, soil-transmitted helminths, lymphatic filariasis, trachoma, onchocerciasis, visceral leishmaniasis, and gambiense sleeping sickness).

摘要

由于被忽视的热带病计划试图巩固消除疾病的成功经验，因此我们需要了解低流行率的传播动态，从而为检测消除和死灰复燃的监测策略提供依据。在这个特别的收藏中，建模洞察力被用来强调局部消除的驱动因素，评估检测死灰复燃的策略，并显示合理的空间采样方案对于几种被忽视的热带病（尤其是血吸虫病，土壤传播的蠕虫，淋巴丝虫病，沙眼，盘尾丝虫病，内脏利什曼病和冈比亚色昏睡病）。
