Increasing LLIN coverage can lead to a change in vector bite behaviour and have a strong impact on the distribution, diversity of vectors and the level of malaria transmission.
“Indeed, in recent years, several studies have shown that increasing LLIN coverage can lead to a change in vector bite behaviour and have a strong impact on the distribution, diversity of vectors and the level of malaria transmission (Riehle et al. 2011; Moiroux et al. 2012; Sougoufara et al. 2014).”
From Resting and feeding behaviour of malaria vectors, in two areas of high long-lasting insecticidal nets coverage in Côte d'Ivoire (2024) · cites this paper as Riehle et al. 2011
The paper’s Abstract (page unavailable) says the outdoor-resting GOUNDRY subgroup would likely be favored by indoor control measures, including insecticide-treated bed nets, and that its discovery might have implications for malaria transmission. It does not report that increasing LLIN coverage changed biting behavior, vector distribution or diversity, or transmission levels; those effects are stronger and more specific than the paper’s prediction.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
