Ultrasensitive Detection of Porcine Epidemic Diarrhea Virus Infections Using Multivalent DNA Nanostructure‐Enabled Lateral Flow Assay

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A multivalent DNA nanostructure‐enabled lateral flow assay was developed for rapid, ultrasensitive detection of porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) nucleocapsid protein. Designer net‐shaped DNA nanostructures (DNA‐Net) presenting PEDV‐specific aptamers achieved ~1000‐fold enhanced binding, enabling detection of viral copies with Ct ≤ 37.42 within 10

Risk factors and mortality of SARS-CoV-2 reinfection during the Omicron era in Taiwan: A nationwide population-based cohort study

open access: yesJournal of Microbiology, Immunology and Infection
Background: Prior to 2022, Taiwan had effectively contained the domestic COVID-19 epidemic. However, during 2022, the country encountered multiple large outbreaks of COVID-19, with patients experiencing their first or second infection (reinfection) were ...

Opioid Epidemics

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2019
In this paper, I propose an economic theory that addresses the epidemic character of opioid epidemics. I consider a community in which individuals are heterogenous with respect to the experience of chronic pain and susceptibility to addiction and live through two periods.

Epidemics in Competition Ii: The General Epidemic

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Statistical Society Series B: Statistical Methodology, 1983
SUMMARY Previous results on competition of epidemics are extended to the case of the general epidemic. Coupling techniques are used for the stochastic model. A result of Kurtz is used to carry the result over to the deterministic case.

Chapter 1 Stochastic Epidemic Models

open access: yes, 2019
This first chapter introduces some basic facts about stochastic epidemic models.We consider the case of a closed community, i.e. without influx of new susceptibles or mortality.

Malaria epidemic early warning and detection in African highlands. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Malaria epidemics have long been known to recur in the African highlands. Efforts to develop systems of early warning and detection for epidemics are outlined here with special emphasis on the Highland Malaria Project (HIMAL).

From Lab to Landscape: Environmental Biohybrid Robotics for Ecological Futures

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This Perspective explores environmental biohybrid robotics, integrating living tissues, microorganisms, and insects for operation in real‐world ecosystems. It traces the leap from laboratory experiments to forests, wetlands, and urban environments and discusses key challenges, development pathways, and opportunities for ecological monitoring and ...

The Obesity Epidemic [PDF]

open access: yesScience, 2004
T here is a growing public health crisis that is global in scope, and it isn't another emerging infectious disease. It concerns being overweight and the adverse health consequences of obesity, which include diabetes, heart disease, and cancer. To sketch the extent of this problem, we begin with the United States, an appropriate starting point because U.

Marburg Virus Glycoprotein Is a Remarkable Virulent Factor Linked to Hemorrhagic Pathology: Evidence from Multimodal Experimental Systems

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
By integrating data from in vitro, ex vivo, and in vivo models, our research identifies the MARV glycoprotein as a remarkable hemorrhagic factor, filling a major gap in this important field. It also provides practical experimental tools for the basic research on viral pathogenesis and applied research aimed at antiviral intervention for hemorrhagic ...
