Increasing Trends of Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS) and Dengue in Hong Kong [PDF]
Background: Guillain-Barr\'e Syndrome (GBS) is a common type of severe acute paralytic neuropathy and associated with other virus infections such as dengue fever and Zika. This study investigate the relationship between GBS, dengue, local meteorological factors in Hong Kong and global climatic factors from January 2000 to June 2016.

Mathematical Modeling of Dengue Epidemic: Control Methods and Vaccination Strategies [PDF]
Dengue is one of the most important infectious diseases in the world, in terms of death and economic cost. Hence, the modeling of dengue is of great importance to help us understand the dynamics disease, and interfering with its spreading mathematical by the proposition of control methods. In this work, control strategies in an attempt to eliminate the

Immunosenescence Profile Is Associated With Increased Susceptibility to Severe COVID‐19
(A) A previous immunosenescence profile in individuals infected with SARS‐CoV2 creates a permissive environment for progression to severe COVID‐19: higher inflammaging, accumulation of exhausted/senescent T cells, an oligoclonal B‐cell repertoire, and accelerated epigenetic age.

The role of larval density and food availability in life‐history traits of Aedes aegypti mosquitoes
We investigated the effects of competition (food availability and larval density) on Aedes aegypti (Diptera: Culicidae) mortality and development. Food had a more pronounced effect on mortality and development time than density, but density had a higher impact on adult size and lifespan.
