Mathematical Modelling of Immune Response in Tissues
Computational and Mathematical Methods in Medicine, Volume 10, Issue 1, Page 9-38, 2009., 2009 We have developed a spatial–temporal mathematical model (PDE) to capture fundamental aspects of the immune response to antigen. We have considered terms that broadly describe intercellular communication, cell movement, and effector function (activation or inhibition).

A Mathematical Model Quantifies Proliferation and Motility Effects of TGF‐β on Cancer Cells
Computational and Mathematical Methods in Medicine, Volume 10, Issue 1, Page 71-83, 2009., 2009 Transforming growth factor (TGF)‐β is known to have properties of both a tumour suppressor and a tumour promoter. While it inhibits cell proliferation, it also increases cell motility and decreases cell–cell adhesion. Coupling mathematical modelling and experiments, we investigate the growth and motility of oncogene‐expressing human mammary epithelial ...

Stability of a secondary dengue viral infection model with multi-target cells
Alexandria Engineering Journal, 2022 Dengue is one of the vector-borne diseases spread in most parts of the world. The number of infected individuals is increased each year. This paper proposes a mathematical model describing the secondary dengue viral infection in micro-environment.

The Dynamics of an HIV/AIDS Model with Screened Disease Carriers
Computational and Mathematical Methods in Medicine, Volume 10, Issue 4, Page 287-305, 2009., 2009 The presence of carriers usually complicates the dynamics and prevention of a disease. They are not recognized as disease cases themselves unless they are screened and they usually spread the infection without them being aware. We argue that this has been one of the major causes of the spread of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).

Computational and Mathematical Methods in Medicine, Volume 9, Issue 2, Page 105-119, 2008., 2008 We invented a standardization method to measure the cup′s anteversion after total hip arthroplasty without the influence of patient′s position. We measured 68 radiographs of 10 patients after total hip replacement (THR) and calculated the error of each measurement, defined as the difference with the average of the same measuring method on the same ...

Global stability analysis and control of leptospirosis
Open Mathematics, 2016 The aim of this paper is to investigate the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of leptospirosis control measures, preventive vaccination and treatment of infective humans that may curtail the disease transmission. For this, a mathematical model for the

Modelling Immune Response and Drug Therapy in Human Malaria Infection
Computational and Mathematical Methods in Medicine, Volume 9, Issue 2, Page 143-163, 2008., 2008 A new intra‐host model of malaria that describes the dynamics of the blood stages of the parasite and its interaction with red blood cells and immune effectors is proposed. Local and global stability of the disease free equilibrium are investigated. Conditions for existence and uniqueness of the endemic equilibrium are derived.
