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 ...

Optimal Regional Control of a Time-Fractional Spatiotemporal SIR Model with Vaccination and Treatment Strategies

Fractal and Fractional
In this study, we analyze a time-fractional spatiotemporal SIR model in a specific area Ω. Taking into account the available resources, vaccines are allocated to region ω1⊆Ω and treatments to region ω2⊆Ω, which may or may not coincide.

Disease prevention versus data privacy : using landcover maps to inform spatial epidemic models [PDF]

, 2012
The availability of epidemiological data in the early stages of an outbreak of an infectious disease is vital for modelers to make accurate predictions regarding the likely spread of disease and preferred intervention strategies.

Influenza Vaccination Responses in Disabled Stroke Patients: A Single‐Center Prospective Observational Study

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This study aimed to investigate the immunological response to influenza vaccination, the incidence and severity of influenza infection, and the side effects of the vaccination in patients with ischemic stroke. Methods This prospective observational study was conducted between 2023 and 2024 at Ramathibodi Hospital.

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.

Dynamic analysis of a fractional-order SIRS model with time delay

Nonlinear Analysis, 2022
Mathematical modeling plays a vital role in the epidemiology of infectious diseases. Policy makers can provide the effective interventions by the relevant results of the epidemic models.

Frailty Predicts Incident Osteoporotic Fractures in Veterans with Rheumatoid Arthritis

Arthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Background/Objective Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is associated with an increased risk of frailty and osteoporosis, but the relationship between frailty and incident osteoporotic fractures in RA is underexplored. Methods Data were from the Veterans Affairs Rheumatoid Arthritis (VARA) Registry.

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
