Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study introduces KK2DP7, a dendrimer‐structured peptide adjuvant, as a tool to decode trained immunity's role in antitumor therapy. Splenic CD11b+ cells mediate tumor suppression via TLR2‐IRF7 activation and epigenetic reprogramming, validated by adoptive transfer experiments.

Characterizing the dynamics of rubella relative to measles: the role of stochasticity [PDF]
Journal of the Royal Society Interface 10, 20130643 (2013), 2012 Rubella is a completely immunizing and mild infection in children. Understanding its behavior is of considerable public health importance because of Congenital Rubella Syndrome, which results from infection with rubella during early pregnancy and may entail a variety of birth defects.

PDE model for multi-patch epidemic models with migration and infection-age dependent infectivity [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 We study a stochastic epidemic model with multiple patches (locations), where individuals in each patch are categorized into three compartments, Susceptible, Infected and Recovered/Removed, and may migrate from one patch to another in any of the compartments.

Topics of Interest in Women With Myeloproliferative Neoplasms
American Journal of Hematology, EarlyView.Women with MPN: life‐cycle phases, specific risks, and influencing factors. ABSTRACT Overview Sex and gender have emerged as central modifiers of disease biology, phenotype, and clinical outcomes in myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs). This review will uniquely highlight issues affecting women with MPN and articulate their relevant determinants ...

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 ...

Deep-learning models improve on community-level diagnosis for common congenital heart disease lesions [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 Prenatal diagnosis of tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) and hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS), two serious congenital heart defects, improves outcomes and can in some cases facilitate in utero interventions. In practice, however, the fetal diagnosis rate for these lesions is only 30-50 percent in community settings. Improving fetal diagnosis of congenital

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
