An age-of-infection model with both symptomatic and asymptomatic infections [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 We formulate a general age-of-infection epidemic model with two pathways: the symptomatic infections and the asymptomatic infections. We then calculate the basic reproduction number $\mathcal{R}_0$ and establish the final size relation. It is shown that the ratio of accumulated counts of symptomatic patients and asymptomatic patients is determined by ...

On the Universality of Jordan Centers for Estimating Infection Sources in Tree Networks [PDF]
, 2014 Finding the infection sources in a network when we only know the network topology and infected nodes, but not the rates of infection, is a challenging combinatorial problem, and it is even more difficult in practice where the underlying infection spreading model is usually unknown a priori. In this paper, we are interested in finding a source estimator

Spatially dense stochastic epidemic models with infection-age dependent infectivity [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 We study an individual-based stochastic spatial epidemic model where the number of locations and the number of individuals at each location both grow to infinity. Each individual is associated with a random infection-age dependent infectivity function. Individuals are infected through interactions across the locations with heterogeneous effects.

Diagnostic electron microscopy in human infectious diseases – Methods and applications
Journal of Microscopy, EarlyView.Abstract Diagnostic electron microscopy (EM) is indispensable in all cases of infectious diseases which deserve or profit from the detection of the entire pathogen (i.e. the infectious unit). The focus of its application has shifted during the last decades from routine diagnostics to diagnostics of special cases, emergencies and the investigation of ...

HEV-related Liver Disease in India : Why is the Disease Stormy?
Annals of the National Academy of Medical Sciences (India), 2018 Hepatitis E virus (HEV) is an important cause of epidemic and sporadic acute viral hepatitis (AVH) in many developing countries, including India. Hepatitis E, a positive-sense single-stranded RNA virus approximately 7.2 kb in length had been classified ...

Journal of Fish Diseases, Volume 48, Issue 6, June 2025.ABSTRACT Salovirus is a genus within the family Caliciviridae, which contains a single member species, Salovirus nordlandense, also known as Atlantic salmon calicivirus (ASCV). While previous work has shown that ASCV can replicate in fish cell lines and establish systemic infection in vivo, its exact role in disease remains unclear and very little is ...

Norovirus infection in immunocompromised hosts [PDF]
, 2003 Acute gastroenteritis caused by noroviruses often has a duration of 2–0 days and is characteristically self-limiting. In contrast, chronic infection caused by noroviruses in immunocompromised individuals can last from weeks to years, making clinical ...
