NCT ID NCT04478370
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at how people's immune systems react to proteins in mosquito saliva after being bitten. Researchers exposed 147 healthy adults in Thailand to lab-grown mosquitoes that can carry malaria or dengue. The goal was to find markers in the blood that show how much exposure a person has had to these mosquitoes, which could help predict disease outbreaks and test mosquito control methods.
