Infectious Disease Transmission by Arline Travel [PDF]
Biomedical Journal of Scientific & Technical Research, 2021 Following the Wright brothers’ first powered flights in 1903, technological advancements in aeronautics have enabled aircraft to overcome distances that would have taken many months or weeks to complete by terrestrial modes in a matter of hours by air...

The SIR dynamic model of infectious disease transmission and its analogy with chemical kinetics [PDF]
PeerJ Physical Chemistry, 2020 Mathematical models of the dynamics of infectious disease transmission are used to forecast epidemics and assess mitigation strategies. In this article, we highlight the analogy between the dynamics of disease transmission and chemical reaction kinetics ...

Fast estimation of time-varying infectious disease transmission rates.
PLoS Computational Biology, 2020 Compartmental epidemic models have been used extensively to study the historical spread of infectious diseases and to inform strategies for future control. A critical parameter of any such model is the transmission rate.

Transmission heterogeneity and control strategies for infectious disease emergence. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2007 The control of emergence and spread of infectious diseases depends critically on the details of the genetic makeup of pathogens and hosts, their immunological, behavioral and ecological traits, and the pattern of temporal and spatial contacts among the ...

Noninvasive mechanical ventilation in high-risk pulmonary infections: a clinical review [PDF]
, 2014 The aim of this article was to review the role of noninvasive ventilation (NIV) in acute pulmonary infectious diseases, such as severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS), H1N1 and tuberculosis, and to assess the risk of disease transmission with the use ...

Geographically dependent individual-level models for infectious diseases transmission [PDF]
Biostatistics, 2020 SummaryInfectious disease models can be of great use for understanding the underlying mechanisms that influence the spread of diseases and predicting future disease progression. Modeling has been increasingly used to evaluate the potential impact of different control measures and to guide public health policy decisions.
