Review of the evolution of insecticide resistance in main malaria vectors in Cameroon from 1990 to 2017.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Preventive chemotherapy with donated anthelminthic drugs is the cornerstone for the control of helminthiases. However, reinfection can occur rapidly in the absence of clean water and sanitation coupled with unhygienic behaviour. The purpose of this study was to assess the effect of an integrated package of i...
