Numerical considerations about the SIR epidemic model with infection age [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
We analyse the infection-age-dependent SIR model from a numerical point of view. First, we present an algorithm for calculating the solution the infection-age-structured SIR model without demography of the background host. Second, we examine how and under which conditions, the conventional SIR model (without infection-age) serves as a practical ...

Community-AcquiredClostridium difficileInfection, Queensland, Australia [PDF]

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2016
To the Editor: In Queensland, Australia, a steady increase in community-acquired (CA) Clostridium difficile infections (CDI) during 2003–2012 could not be explained by patients’ demographic characteristics or environmental factors (1). Several risk factors have been implicated in the increased rates of CA-CDI, primarily exposure to antimicrobial drugs,

Low‐Irradiance Antimicrobial Blue Light‐Bathing Therapy for Wound Infection Control

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Antimicrobial blue light has been shown as an appealing non‐pharmacological antimicrobial alternative. However, its clinical applications have been hindered by high irradiance‐associated photothermal risks. In this work, a low‐irradiance blue light‐bathing concept and a wearable photonic wound patch are established to address this challenge in terms of

Lactobacillus johnsonii Generates Cyclo(pro‐trp) and Promotes Intestinal Ca2+ Absorption to Alleviate CKD–SHPT

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The mechanism map of how L.johnsonii generates cyclo(pro‐trp) to alleviate CKD–SHPT by promoting the expression of CaSR and TRPV4 in IECs, enhancing Ca2+ absorption, and negatively feedback inhibiting iPTH secretion. Abstract Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) are at a high risk of developing secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT), which may ...

Dimethyl Itaconate Alleviates Escherichia coli‐Induced Endometritis Through the Guanosine‐CXCL14 Axis via Increasing the Abundance of norank_f_Muribaculaceae

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The research findings indicate that dimethyl itaconate (DI) alleviates Escherichia coli (E. coli) induced endometritis by modulating the gut microbiota and enriching the abundance of norank_f_Muribaculaceae, thereby increasing the production of guanosine.
