Background – Diagnosis of canine adverse food reactions (AFRs) is based on vague criteria, such as ‘>50% improvement’ during elimination diet trial (EDT) followed by ‘deterioration’ during provocation test (PT). Objective – The objective of the study was to use predefined criteria to evaluate response during EDT [i.e., Owner Global Assessment of ...

Optimal control of a fractional order epidemic model with application to human respiratory syncytial virus infection [PDF]
A human respiratory syncytial virus surveillance system was implemented in Florida in 1999, to support clinical decision-making for prophylaxis of premature newborns. Recently, a local periodic SEIRS mathematical model was proposed in [Stat. Optim.

VERTICALLY TRANSMITTED VECTOR-BORNE DISEASES AND THE EFFECTS OF EXTREME TEMPERATURE
An existing compartmental model of vector-borne diseases is considered to incorporate vertical transmissions in the vector and the host populations. The effects of extrinsic incubation rate of the disease causing pathogen in mosquitoes on the epidemic as

Dengue is the most prominent arboviral infection known to humans, especially in tropical regions of the world like Bangladesh. This is often a tricky outbreak to deal with, given its nature of seasonality, and due to the impact of climate change, variations in the length of its on‐season have been observed.

Analysis of a model arising from invasion by precursor and differentiated cells
We study the wave solutions for a degenerated reaction diffusion system arising from the invasion of cells. We show that there exists a family of waves for the wave speed larger than or equals a certain number, and below which there is no monotonic wave ...

Analysis of the Diffusion SIR Epidemic Model With Networked Delay and Nonlinear Incidence Rate
This paper is concerned with the qualitative analysis of a diffusion SIR epidemic model with networked delay and nonlinear incidence rate. First, we prove the existence and uniqueness of the model by using the method of upper and lower solutions. Then, we prove that the trivial equilibrium (0, 0) is unstable; the disease‐free equilibrium (N, 0) is ...
