Estimation of hepatitis E virus transmission among pigs due to contact-exposure [PDF]

, 2008
Locally acquired hepatitis E in humans from industrialized countries has been repeatedly suggested to originate from pigs. Pigs may serve as a reservoir of hepatitis E virus (HEV) for humans when a typical infected pig causes on average more than one ...

The microbiome in human skin aging

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐related skin changes encompass the well‐known visible phenotypic alterations, together with microbiome dysbiosis and a series of molecular aging hallmarks. These hallmarks characterize not only a fully stablished aged phenotype but also the skin aging process itself.

The epidemiology of norovirus in England diagnostics, incidence and transmission [PDF]

Existing estimates of the incidence of infectious intestinal disease (IID) caused by norovirus in the community are based on electron microscopy or reverse transcription- polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).

Analysis of CDC social control measures using an agent-based simulation of an influenza epidemic in a city [PDF]

, 2011
Background: the transmission of infectious disease amongst the human population is a complex process which requires advanced, often individual-based, models to capture the space-time details observed in reality.Methods: an Individual Space-Time Activity ...

Autophagy and mitophagy in pancreatic β‐cell homeostasis and their involvement in diabetes pathophysiology

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This review focuses on the role of autophagy and mitophagy in maintaining pancreatic β‐cell function and homeostasis. We discuss how genetic defects affecting these pathways contribute to the development of type 1, type 2, monogenic, and gestational diabetes. We further explore their potential as therapeutic targets. Created in BioRender.

The impact of economic crises on communicable disease transmission and control: a systematic review of the evidence.

PLoS ONE, 2011
There is concern among public health professionals that the current economic downturn, initiated by the financial crisis that started in 2007, could precipitate the transmission of infectious diseases while also limiting capacity for control.

When more transmission equals less disease: reconciling the disconnect between disease hotspots and parasite transmission. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
The assumed straightforward connection between transmission intensity and disease occurrence impacts surveillance and control efforts along with statistical methodology, including parameter inference and niche modeling.

The ubiquitin system in normal and infected germinal center B cells

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The ubiquitin system plays a central role in germinal center (GC) B cells, influencing differentiation to long‐lived memory B cells. Oncogenic gammaherpesviruses gain access to memory B cells by establishing latency in GC B cells. Mapping ubiquitin mechanisms in normal and infected GC B cells will define specific molecular circuits in B cells germane ...

A quantitative analysis of transmission efficiency versus intensity for malaria. [PDF]

, 2010
The relationship between malaria transmission intensity and efficiency is important for malaria epidemiology, for the design of randomized control trials that measure transmission or incidence as end points, and for measuring and modelling malaria ...
