Cost-Benefit Analysis of Hepatitis-B Vaccination: A Computerized Decision Model for Spain [PDF]
The availability and efficacy of recombinant deoxyribonucleic acid yeast-derived hepatitis-B vaccine, at a price much lower than the previously available plasma-derived hepatitis-B vaccines against hepatitis-B virus infections, motivate a new cost ...

The study successfully developed and validated a granulomatous liver injury model using a high‐dose BCG vaccine, simulating hepatic tuberculosis and autoimmune granulomatous liver diseases. Pharmacokinetic analysis examined the metabolic behavior of first‐line antitubercular drugs (isoniazid and rifampicin) and their main metabolites under conditions ...

Animal models of human herpesvirus infection
Human herpesvirus can infect humans and other vertebrates, primarily targeting the skin, mucous membranes, and neural tissues, thereby significantly impacting the health of both humans and animals. Animal models are crucial for studying virus pathogenesis, vaccine development, and drug testing.

Mathematical Model and Analysis of Transmission Dynamics of Hepatitis B Virus [PDF]
Hepatitis B is a potentially life-threatening liver infection caused by the hepatitis B virus (HBV). In this paper, the transmission dynamics of hepatitis B is formulated with a mathematical model with considerations of different classes of individuals, namely immunized, susceptible, latent,infected and recovered class.
