Chapter 1 Stochastic Epidemic Models

, 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.

Clinical progress note: Rotavirus

Journal of Hospital Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Rotavirus is a vaccine‐preventable cause of acute, viral gastroenteritis typically characterized by diarrhea, vomiting, and fever. Prior to rotavirus vaccine introduction, nearly all children worldwide had been infected by 5 years of age. Severe rotavirus gastroenteritis causes dehydration and electrolyte derangements, and infants and young ...

The Art of Reception: Field Visits as Microcosms for Development Interventions of Non‐Governmental Organisations in Uganda

Journal of International Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Field visits are common phenomena with non‐governmental organisations in Uganda. During these visits, Ugandan national staff guide visitors on series of meetings and interactions in the field. Following an actor‐oriented approach and drawing on ethnographic data on 14 field visits, this paper understands the field visit as a microcosm for the ...

Inter‐Group Agreement in Chest Radiographic Quality Assessment: Comparing Final‐Year Students and Experienced Radiographers Across Three Quality Assessment Domains During the COVID‐19 Pandemic

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
Final‐year radiography students and experienced radiographers assessed 70 chest radiographs using structured criteria for positioning, sharpness and anatomical visibility. The level of agreement was good to excellent across all three domains, with an overall ICC of 0.90.

Spatio-temporal epidemic modelling using additive-multiplicative intensity models [PDF]

, 2008
An extension of the stochastic susceptible-infectious-recovered (SIR) model is proposed in order to accommodate a regression context for modelling infectious disease surveillance data. The proposal is based on a multivariate counting process specified by

From Markovian to pairwise epidemic models and the performance of moment closure approximations [PDF]

, 2011
Many if not all models of disease transmission on networks can be linked to the exact state-based Markovian formulation. However the large number of equations for any system of realistic size limits their applicability to small populations.
