Neuroscience and Behavioral Physiology, 2020 This review presents data on changes in measures of innate and adaptive immunity associated with the state of sleep. The effects of restricted and prolonged sleep duration on measures of morbidity, mortality, and susceptibility to infectious diseases and the effects of vaccination are discussed.

Is the impact of childhood influenza vaccination less than expected: a transmission modelling study
BMC Infectious Diseases, 2017 Background To reduce the burden of severe influenza, most industrialized countries target specific risk-groups with influenza vaccines, e.g. the elderly or individuals with comorbidities.

BMC Infectious Diseases, 2016 Background In many industrialized countries routine vaccination with the 23-valent pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine (PPSV-23) is recommended to prevent pneumococcal disease in the elderly. However, vaccine-induced immunity wanes after a few years, and

Whole-blood transcriptomic signatures induced during immunization by chloroquine prophylaxis and Plasmodium falciparum sporozoites [PDF]
, 2019 A highly effective vaccine that confers sterile protection to malaria is urgently needed. Immunization under chemoprophylaxis with sporozoites (CPS) consistently confers high levels of protection in the Controlled Human Malaria infection (CHMI) model. To

Efficient Immunization Strategies for Computer Networks and Populations
, 2003 We present an effective immunization strategy for computer networks and populations with broad and, in particular, scale-free degree distributions. The proposed strategy, acquaintance immunization, calls for the immunization of random acquaintances of ...

Strength and weakness of disease-induced herd immunity in networks [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 When a fraction of a population becomes immune to an infectious disease, the population-wide infection risk decreases nonlinearly due to collective protection, known as herd immunity. Studies based on mean-field models suggest that natural infection in a heterogeneous population may induce herd immunity more efficiently than homogeneous immunization ...

Swift development of protective effector functions in naive CD8(+) T cells against malaria liver stages. [PDF]
, 2001 We generated T cell receptor transgenic mice specific for the liver stages of the rodent malaria parasite Plasmodium yoelii and studied the early events in the development of in vivo effector functions in antigen-specific CD8(+) T cells.
