Vector control methods are considered effective in averting dengue transmission. However, several factors may modify their impact. Of these controls, chemical methods, in the long run, may increase mosquitoes' resistance to chemicides, thereby decreasing control efficacy. The biological methods, which may be self-sustaining and very effective, could be hampered by seasonality or heatwaves (resulting in, e.g., loss of infection). The environmental methods that could be more effective than the chemical methods are under-investigated. In this study, a systematic review is conducted to explore the present understanding of the effectiveness of vector control approaches via dengue transmission models.
病媒控制方法被认为可有效预防登革热传播。然而,有几个因素可能会改变它们的影响。在这些控制方法中,从长远来看,化学方法可能会增加蚊子对杀虫剂的抵抗力,从而降低控制效果。而具有自我维持能力且非常有效的生物方法可能会受到季节性或热浪的影响(例如,导致感染的丧失)。可能比化学方法更有效的环境方法研究还不够充分。在本研究中,我们通过登革热传播模型进行了系统综述,以探讨目前对病媒控制方法有效性的理解。
