Epidemic Dynamics of Interacting Two Particle Species on Scale-free Networks [PDF]

, 2006
We study the non-equilibrium phase transition in a model for epidemic spreading on scale-free networks. The model consists of two particle species $A$ and $B$, and the coupling between them is taken to be asymmetric; $A$ induces $B$ while $B$ suppresses $

Re‐Awakening Public Attention to the Silent Pandemic of Cancer Among Older Adults in Low‐ and Middle‐Income Countries

Aging and Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As global populations age, cancer is increasingly becoming a leading cause of morbidity and mortality among older adults, particularly in low‐ and middle‐income countries (LMICs). Despite accounting for the majority of new cancer cases and deaths, older individuals remain underrepresented in cancer research, clinical guidelines, and health ...

Containing an epidemic in the case of running out of treatment: A switched system approach

Nonlinear Analysis
In this paper, we discuss an epidemic switched system. A susceptible–infected–treated model is considered. The course of an epidemic is profoundly influenced by the allocation of resources.

Shift of percolation thresholds for epidemic spread between static and dynamic small-world networks

, 2010
The aim of the study was to compare the epidemic spread on static and dynamic small-world networks. The network was constructed as a 2-dimensional Watts-Strogatz model (500x500 square lattice with additional shortcuts), and the dynamics involved rewiring

Bayesian data assimilation provides rapid decision support for vector-borne diseases [PDF]

, 2015
Predicting the spread of vector-borne diseases in response to incursions requires knowledge of both host and vector demographics in advance of an outbreak.

Effectiveness of rTMS on Working Memory and Inhibitory Impairments in Patients With Post‐Stroke Executive Deficits

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Considerable efforts have been dedicated to developing effective treatments for post‐stroke executive impairment (PSEI), among which repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) has shown great potential. This study aimed to investigate the therapeutic effects of high‐frequency rTMS on working memory (WM) and response ...

Homotopy Analysis Method for an Epidemic Model

Walailak Journal of Science and Technology, 2013
In this paper, Homotopy analysis method (HAM) is employed to solve a system of nonlinear equations. The model is the problem of the spread of a non-fatal disease in a population with a constant size, over the period of the epidemic. Mathematical modeling
