Modelling diverse sources of Clostridium difficile in the community: importance of animals, infants and asymptomatic carriers [PDF]

arXiv, 2018
Clostridium difficile infections (CDIs) affect patients in hospitals and in the community, but the relative importance of transmission in each setting is unknown. We developed a mathematical model of C. difficile transmission in a hospital and surrounding community that included infants, adults, and transmission from animal reservoirs.

Preferred Reporting Items for Microbiotherapy (PRIM) Guidelines Across Medical Disciplines: An International Delphi Consensus

Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Microbiotherapy has opened new avenues for managing dysbiosis‐related diseases. However, many studies did not cover all the necessary reporting items for microbiotherapy making the interpretation of results, safety assessment, technology extension, and even the transparency of legitimacy difficult. This project consisted of 2 phases. First, we

Confidence bounds for the sensitivity lack of a less specific diagnostic test, without gold standard [PDF]

arXiv, 2010
We consider the problem of comparing two diagnostic tests based on a sample of paired test results without true state determinations, in cases where the second test can reasonably be assumed to be at least as specific as the first. For such cases, we provide two informative confidence bounds: A lower one for the prevalence times the sensitivity gain of

Gut microbiota development across the lifespan: Disease links and health‐promoting interventions

Journal of Internal Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract The gut microbiota plays a pivotal role in human life and undergoes dynamic changes throughout the human lifespan, from infancy to old age. During our life, the gut microbiota influences health and disease across life stages. This review summarizes the discussions and presentations from the symposium “Gut microbiota development from infancy to

Removing bias due to finite measurement of dynamic systems: case study on P2P systems [PDF]

13es Rencontres Francophones sur les Aspects Algorithmiques de T\'el\'ecommunications (AlgoTel) (2011), 2011
Mesurer avec pr\'ecision la dynamique des graphes de terrain est une t\^ache difficile, car les propri\'et\'es observ\'ees peuvent \^etre biais\'ees pour diff\'erentes raisons, en particulier le fait que la p\'eriode de mesure soit finie. Dans ce papier, nous introduisons une m\'ethodologie g\'en\'erale qui nous permet de savoir si la fen\^etre d ...
