TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compile the largest contemporary database for both species and pair it with relevant environmental variables predicting their global distribution, showing Aedes distributions to be the widest ever recorded; now extensive in all continents, including North America and Europe.

TL;DR: The global distribution and co-circulation of each DENV type from 1943 to 2013 is mapped to show how detection of all types has expanded worldwide together with growing hyperendemicity and there remains a dearth of type-specific information in many parts of the world.

TL;DR: This is the first comprehensive global database of Ae.

TL;DR: A global assessment of the consensus of evidence for leishmaniasis was performed at a sub-national level by aggregating information from a variety of sources and a boosted regression tree modelling framework was used to generate global environmental risk maps for the leish maniases.

TL;DR: These new risk maps provide a valuable starting point for understanding the zoonotic niche of CCHF, its extent and the risk it poses to humans.
