Simulating Drug-Eluting Stents: Progress Made and the Way Forward [PDF]
, 2013 Drug-eluting stents have significantly improved the treatment of coronary artery disease. Compared with their bare metal predecessors, they offer reduced rates of restenosis and thus represent the current gold standard in percutaneous coronary ...

Zebrafish Models of Cerebrovascular Disease [PDF]
Journal of Cerebral Blood Flow & Metabolism, 2014 Perturbations in cerebral blood flow and abnormalities in blood vessel structure are the hallmarks of cerebrovascular disease. While there are many genetic and environmental factors that affect these entities through a heterogeneous group of disease processes, the ultimate final pathologic insult in humans is defined as a stroke, or damage to brain ...

A space-time conditional intensity model for infectious disease occurence [PDF]
, 2010 A novel point process model continuous in space-time is proposed for infectious disease data. Modelling is based on the conditional intensity function (CIF) and extends an additive-multiplicative CIF model previously proposed for discrete space epidemic ...

Quantifying the impact of physical distance measures on the transmission of COVID-19 in the UK
BMC Medicine, 2020 Background To mitigate and slow the spread of COVID-19, many countries have adopted unprecedented physical distancing policies, including the UK. We evaluate whether these measures might be sufficient to control the epidemic by estimating their impact on

Bayesian Modelling of Inseparable Space-Time Variation in Disease Risk [PDF]
, 1998 This paper proposes a unified framework for a Bayesian analysis of incidence or mortality data in space and time. We introduce four different types of prior distributions for space $\times$ time interaction in extension of a model with only main effects.

The effects of weather and climate change on dengue [PDF]
, 2013 There is much uncertainty about the future impact of climate change on vector-borne diseases. Such uncertainty reflects the difficulties in modelling the complex interactions between disease, climatic and socioeconomic determinants.
