Enhanced vaccine control of epidemics in adaptive networks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We study vaccine control for disease spread on an adaptive network modeling disease avoidance behavior. Control is implemented by adding Poisson distributed vaccination of susceptibles.

Implantable Microarray Patch: Engineering at the Nano and Macro Scale for Sustained Therapeutic Release via Synthetic Biodegradable Polymers

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, Volume 10, Issue 6, March 18, 2025.
This review focuses on the application of synthetic biodegradable microarray patches (MAPs) in sustained drug delivery. Compared to conventional MAPs which release drugs into the skin in an immediate manner, these implantable MAPs release drugs into skin microcirculation gradually as the biodegradable polymers degrade, thus offering sustained release ...

The Behavior of Epidemics under Bounded Susceptibility

open access: yes, 2014
We investigate the sensitivity of epidemic behavior to a bounded susceptibility constraint -- susceptible nodes are infected by their neighbors via the regular SI/SIS dynamics, but subject to a cap on the infection rate. Such a constraint is motivated by

Epidemic vomiting [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Hygiene, 1974
Two outbreaks of epidemic vomiting are described. One affected 107 students and staff at a college of education out of a total of 398 persons. The other affected 172 pupils and staff out of 357 at a secondary school. Evidence is presented that in both cases infection was acquired in the dining hall of the institution concerned but no specific item of ...

Exclusive Breastfeeding Drives AMPK‐Dependent Thermogenic Memory in BAT and Promotes Long‐Term Metabolic Benefits in Offspring

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Exclusive breastfeeding establishes a thermogenic memory in brown adipose tissue by activating the HIF1AN/AMPK/α‐ketoglutarate axis via milk‐derived extracellular vesicles enriched in miR‐125a‐5p. This programming preserves metabolic health, while αKG supplementation restores BAT function under mixed feeding, offering strategies to mitigate the ...

Differentiated Service Delivery Model in Improving HIV Treatment Outcomes Among Female Sex Workers in Gauteng Province of South Africa: A Protocol Paper

open access: yesMethods and Protocols
South Africa developed the differentiated service delivery (DSD) model to improve access to healthcare for people living with HIV (PLHIV), especially key populations (KPs) including female sex workers (FSWs) who often face barriers in accessing HIV ...

Coexistence and management of COVID-19 pandemic with other epidemics in West Africa: lessons learnt and policy implications

open access: yesThe Pan African Medical Journal, 2021
Since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic in West Africa, the region has faced a coexistence of epidemics raising questions about the management of the coexistence between COVID-19 and other epidemic prone diseases.
