The work comprises a systematic review of the aplousobranch family Polyclinidae and includes discussions on the relationships of Indo-Pacific and West Pacific species of the family. Thirty-seven species taken from Australian waters are described, of which 15 are new. Their geographical distribution is briefly discussed.

Estudos indicam que as mudanças climáticas poderão afetar a distribuição global de arboviroses, influenciando fatores como sobrevivência de vetores, patógenos e transmissão viral. Assim, buscou-se nesse estudo realizar uma revisão sistemática dos artigos mais recentes – publicados entre 2015 e 2020 - relativos a essa temática. Após a aplicação de critérios de elegibilidade, 28 artigos foram selecionados para análise. A partir da revisão, verificou-se que as mudanças climáticas poderão afetar a aptidão das regiões para transmissão viral e a distribuição geográfica de mosquitos do gênero Aedes. Contudo, o efeito das mudanças climáticas varia em diferentes regiões, podendo causar expansão ou contração das áreas aptas para a ocorrência de arboviroses. Em geral, verifica-se um potencial crescimento das áreas aptas em regiões temperadas, sobretudo para o A. albopictus. Em regiões tropicais, por outro lado, o aumento da temperatura poderá limitar as áreas, atualmente, consideradas aptas. Embora não seja intuitivo, alguns estudos previram que a mitigação parcial das mudanças climáticas pode ocasionar maior risco de transmissão viral do que nenhuma mitigação. Assim, é possível verificar que a relação entre as mudanças climáticas e a transmissão de arboviroses não é direta e pode variar em diferentes cenários e locais.     Climate Change and its Impact on the Incidence of Arboviruses: A Systematic Review of Recent Studies A B S T R A C TStudies indicate that climate change may affect the global distribution of arboviruses, influencing factors such as vector survival, pathogens, and viral transmission. Thus, this study aimed to conduct a systematic review of the most recent articles - published between 2015 and 2020 - related to this theme. After applying eligibility criteria, 28 papers were selected for analysis. From the review, it was found that climate change may affect the suitability of regions for viral transmission and the geographical distribution of mosquitoes of the genus Aedes. However, the effect of climate change varies in different regions, which may cause expansion or contraction of areas suitable for the occurrence of arboviruses. In general, there is a potential for growth in suitable areas within temperate regions, especially for A. albopictus. In tropical regions, on the other hand, the increase in temperature may limit the areas currently considered suitable. Although not intuitive, some studies have predicted that partial mitigation of climate change may lead to a higher risk of viral transmission than no mitigation. Thus, it is possible to verify that the relationship between climate change and the transmission of arboviruses is not direct and may vary in different scenarios and locations.Keywords: Climate; Projection; Aedes; Arboviruses.

Abstract Background : Numerous studies have been carried out on assessing the prevalence of intestinal parasites infections (IPIs) among preschool and school-age children in Ethiopia, but there is lack of study systematically gathered and analyzedinformation for policymakers. Therefore, the aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to provide a summary on prevalence, geographical distribution and trends of IPIs among preschool and school-age childrenin Ethiopia. Methods :The search were carried out in Medline via PubMed, Scopus, Science Direct, Web of Science, and Google Scholar from 1996to July2019 for studies describing prevalence of IPIs among preschooland school-age children. We conducted meta-regression to understand the trends and the source of heterogeneity and pooled the prevalence using ‘metaprop’ command using STATA software version 14. Results : Eighty-three(83) studies examining 56,786 fecal specimens were included. The prevalence of IPIs was 48 %( 95%CI: 42% to 53%) and showedsignificantly decreasing trends 17% (95% CI: 2.5% to 32%) for each consecutive 6 years) and was similar in males and females. The pooled prevalence in years 1997–2002, 2003–2008, 2009–2014 and >2014 was 71% (95% CI: 57% to 86%), 42% (95% CI: 27% to 56%), 48% (95% CI: 40% to 56%) and 42% (95% CI: 34% to 49%), respectively. Poly-parasitism was observed in 16% (95% CI: 13% to 19 %,) of the cases. Conclusion: Intestinal parasite infections are highly prevalent among preschool and school-age children and well distributed across the regional states of Ethiopia. Southern and Amhara regional states carry the highest burden.We observed significant decreasing trends in prevalence of IPIs among preschool and school-age Ethiopian children over the last two decades.Therefore, this study is important to locate the geographical distribution and identified high risk areas that should be prioritized further interventions, which complement global efforts towards elimination of IPIs infections by 2020

This article reviews the field of electoral geography in Czechia and Slovakia. It systematically analyses selected publications to identify the most and least frequently researched topics, theories, and methods. Most of the analyzed studies strived to determine the factors underlying the uneven geographical distribution of election results. Issues of turnout and geographical representation were the least common. The cleavage theory was the most frequently applied theoretical approach, although most studies did not apply any theory. Only one study used the qualitative methodology, whereas the rest relied on quantitative methods. Most often, analyses were performed at the scale of districts and municipalities. The article identifies possible directions for future research in the electoral geography of Czechia and Slovakia.
