TL;DR: Combining medical and vector control was decisive in reducing T. gambiense transmission and in speeding up progress towards elimination in Guinea.

TL;DR: Serial application of SD Bioline HAT and HAT Sero-K-Set might offer superior specificity compared to a single HAT-RDT, maintaining high sensitivity, and the combination of one or two RDTs with trypanolysis seems promising for HAT surveillance.

TL;DR: The Tsgf118–43 peptide is a suitable and promising candidate to develop a standardize immunoassay allowing large scale monitoring of human exposure to tsetse flies in West Africa.
First insights into the cattle serological response to tsetse salivary antigens: a promising direct biomarker of exposure to tsetse bites.

TL;DR: Experimental studies confirmed that a quick rise of specific IgGs was observed in animals exposed to tsetse flies (within weeks), followed by a rapid clearance after exposure was stopped, indicating that tsete saliva antibodies are not only indicators of t setse exposure but also are correlated to the intensity of t Setse contacts.
