Managing and controlling diseases transmitted by Aedes mosquitoes: a review on best practices.
Review in Tropical medicine and health, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundDengue fever (DF) is a viral disease caused by the dengue virus and is transmitted to humans by Aedes mosquitoes. It is characterized by symptoms such as high fever and severe headache, which can lead to severe complications. As there are no effective treatments or vaccines, prevention is crucial. This study aims to identify best practices from various countries for controlling Aedes populations and managing DF.
methodsWe reviewed best practices for DF and Aedes mosquito control from various countries, including Taiwan, India, Oman, Singapore, Malaysia, Sri Lanka, Indonesia, Pakistan, China, the Philippines, Japan, Brazil, Paraguay, France, Portugal, Spain, Peru, the United States, Colombia, Australia, and Iran. The PubMed database was searched until August 2024.
resultsDengue outbreaks necessitate diverse control strategies across nations. Machine learning models incorporating climatic and entomological data improved outbreak prediction accuracy by up to 29%, while Wolbachia-based interventions reduced dengue incidence by 77% in urban trials. Community-driven programs enhanced preventive behaviors by 50-70%, and novel vaccines demonstrated > 94% efficacy against severe dengue. Challenges such as insecticide resistance and climate variability underscore the need for adaptive surveillance and cross-sector collaboration. Innovations in mobile health tools and sterile insect techniques further optimized vector control, achieving > 90% reductions in mosquito populations, compared with baseline densities before intervention.
conclusionsEffective Aedes mosquito management against DF requires community engagement, surveillance, and innovative control methods. Successful strategies from selected countries highlight the importance of interventions, ongoing research, and public education to reduce disease risks. Continuous research, collaboration across sectors, and public awareness are necessary to reduce Aedes mosquitoes' risks and protect public health from vector-borne diseases.
