    A Mathematical Modelling of Lymphatic Filariasis and Malaria Co-infection

    Lymphatic Filariasis (LF) and Malaria continue to pose significant public health burden globally and are co-endemic in many sub-Saharan African regions. In this work, we developed and analyzed a mathematical model of Lymphatic filariasis and malaria co-infection model. Friedman and Lunge method was used to find the positivity of the solution, the disease-free equilibrium was obtained, the model stability was analyzed, and the basic reproductive number was also obtained. The findings suggest that with the use of a bed-net and insecticide as a control measure, the treatment of LF and malaria co-infection can be reduced to a minimum.

    Exploring the dynamics of lymphatic filariasis through a mathematical model and analysis with Holling type II treatment functions
    (Iranian Journal of Numerical Analysis and Optimization, 2025-06) F. A. Oguntolu; O. J. Peter; B. I. Omede; T. A. Ayoola; G. B. Balogun
    This paper presents a robust deterministic mathematical model incorporat-ing Holling type II treatment functions to comprehensively investigate the dynamics of Lymphatic filariasis. Through qualitative analysis, the model demonstrates the occurrence of backward bifurcation when the basic re-production number is less than one. Moreover, numerical simulations are employed to illustrate and validate key analytical findings. These simula-tion results emphasize the significance of accessible medical resources and the efficacy of prophylactic drugs in eradicating Lymphatic filariasis. The findings show that, enhancing medical resource availability and implement-ing effective treatment strategies in rural areas and regions vulnerable to Lymphatic filariasis is crucial for combating the transmission and control of this disease.
