A review of epidemiological parameters from Ebola outbreaks to inform early public health decision-making. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The unprecedented scale of the Ebola outbreak in West Africa has, as of 29 April 2015, resulted in more than 10,884 deaths among 26,277 cases. Prior to the ongoing outbreak, Ebola virus disease (EVD) caused relatively small outbreaks (maximum outbreak ...

Stability Criteria for SIS Epidemiological Models under Switching Policies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We study the spread of disease in an SIS model. The model considered is a time-varying, switched model, in which the parameters of the SIS model are subject to abrupt change. We show that the joint spectral radius can be used as a threshold parameter for

Dynamical analysis of mathematical model for Bovine Tuberculosis among human and cattle population

open access: yesCommunication in Biomathematical Sciences, 2019
Bovine Tuberculosis (BTB) is a disease that can attack humans through cattle.The process of transmission can occur through the air and cattle products that are not treated properly.

A realistic two-lane traffic model for highway traffic [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
A two-lane extension of a recently proposed cellular automaton model for traffic flow is discussed. The analysis focuses on the reproduction of the lane usage inversion and the density dependence of the number of lane changes. It is shown that the single-

On Basic Reproduction Number R0 : Derivation and Application

open access: yesJournal of Engineering and Applied Sciences Technology, 2023
The basic reproductive number (R0 ) is a threshold parameter for a population-level model of infectious disease control. The basic reproduction number is derived by epidemiologists using different techniques. It is used to estimate the basic reproductive rates of infected and susceptible hosts and to guide intervention strategies.

Application of the type and target reproduction numbers to the evaluation of the influence of each prefecture in Japan on the disease spread

open access: yesInfectious Disease Modelling
In this study, by applying population mobility data in July, August and September of 2019–2023 in Japan to a multigroup epidemic model, we calculate the type and target reproduction numbers of each prefecture in Japan. Regarding these values as a kind of

Population models with partial migration

open access: yes, 2015
Populations exhibiting partial migration consist of two groups of individuals: Those that mi- grate between habitats, and those that remain fixed in a single habitat.

Modeling TB-HIV syndemic and treatment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Tuberculosis (TB) and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) can be considered a deadly human syndemic. In this article, we formulate a model for TB and HIV transmission dynamics.

Transcriptional network analysis of PTEN‐protein‐deficient prostate tumors reveals robust stromal reprogramming and signs of senescent paracrine communication

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Combining PTEN protein assessment and transcriptomic profiling of prostate tumors, we uncovered a network enriched in senescence and extracellular matrix (ECM) programs associated with PTEN loss and conserved in a mouse model. We show that PTEN‐deficient cells trigger paracrine remodeling of the surrounding stroma and this information could help ...

Basic reproduction number and sensitivity analysis of Legionnaires’ disease model

open access: yesGadau Journal of Pure and Allied Sciences, 2023
Legionnaires’ disease is a very serious type of pneumonia (lung infection) caused by bacteria called Legionella. In this research, a mathematical model for the transmission dynamics of legionnaires’ is developed. Four different reproduction numbers were obtained indicating the type of interaction between susceptible and infected and how the disease is ...
