MOLINEROS GALLON, Luis Fernando et al. Applications of a comprehensive model for the study of urban malaria in San Andrés de Tumaco, Colombia. []. , 66, 1, pp. 3-19. ISSN 0375-0760.
A study was conducted of the epidemiological characteristics of urban malaria and the factors associated to its transmission worldwide by means of a review of published materials, including books, scientific papers, topic reviews and technical reports. The methodology applied was based on the search for documents and managers in bibliographic sources. Results are expected to provide a current picture of the morbidity and mortality burden of urban malaria, laying the foundations for relevant research into the topic and the development of control strategies.
