Estimation of the basic reproduction number of measles during an outbreak in a partially vaccinated population [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
From March to July 1996 a measles outbreak occurred in northern Luxembourg with 110 reported cases centered around two primary schools (85 cases) and the surrounding community (25 cases). Eighty four suspected cases were confirmed serologically.

Towards an understanding of the perpetuation of the agent of tularemia

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2011
The epidemiology of tularemia has influenced, perhaps incorrectly skewed, our views on the ecology of the agent of tularemia. In particular, the central role of lagomorphs needs to be reexamined.

Mathematical modelling of internal HIV dynamics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We study a mathematical model for the viral dynamics of HIV in an infected individual in the presence of HAART. The paper starts with a literature review and then formulates the basic mathematical model.

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

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 ...

Interplay between circadian and other transcription factors—Implications for cycling transcriptome reprogramming

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This perspective highlights emerging insights into how the circadian transcription factor CLOCK:BMAL1 regulates chromatin architecture, cooperates with other transcription factors, and coordinates enhancer dynamics. We propose an updated framework for how circadian transcription factors operate within dynamic and multifactorial chromatin landscapes ...
