    Spatio-temporal associations between deforestation and malaria incidence in Lao PDR

    Francois Rerolle et al.

    Deforestation near villages is associated with short-term increases but long-term decreases in malaria incidence in Lao PDR, highlighting the influence of forest-going populations on malaria transmission in the region.
