A stochastic programming approach for dynamic allocation of bed capacity and assignment of patients to collaborating hospitals during pandemic outbreaks [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
Sustaining regular and infectious care during an infectious outbreak requires adequate management support for capacity allocation for regular and infectious patients. During the COVID-19 pandemic, hospitals faced severe challenges, including uncertainty concerning the number of infectious patients needing hospitalization and too little regional ...

Aspirin Effect on Staphylococcus aureus—Platelet Interactions During Infectious Endocarditis

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine, 2019
Infectious endocarditis (IE) is a rare disease associated with high mortality and morbidity rate. The platelet–bacterial interaction presents the cornerstone of the development of endocardial vegetation.

Tracking the Transmission Dynamics of COVID-19 with a Time-Varying Coefficient State-Space Model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
The spread of COVID-19 has been greatly impacted by regulatory policies and behavior patterns that vary across counties, states, and countries. Population-level dynamics of COVID-19 can generally be described using a set of ordinary differential equations, but these deterministic equations are insufficient for modeling the observed case rates, which ...

Antibacterial Siderophores of Pandoraea Pathogens and Their Impact on the Diseased Lung Microbiota

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Genome mining of environmental and pathogenic Pandoraea species identified a conserved NRPS gene cluster and led to the discovery of novel siderophores, pandorabactins, which exert their antibacterial activity by depleting iron from competitors. Bioinformatic analysis of sputum from cystic fibrosis patients coupled with bioassays indicates that ...

Impact of the infectious period on epidemics [PDF]

open access: yesPhys. Rev. E 97, 052403 (2018), 2017
The duration of the infectious period is a crucial determinant of the ability of an infectious disease to spread. We consider an epidemic model that is network based and non-Markovian, containing classic Kermack-McKendrick, pairwise, message passing, and spatial models as special cases.

Etiologic and prognostic value of external carotid artery thrombus detection during endovascular therapy for anterior circulation proximal occlusions

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Neurology, Volume 30, Issue 2, Page 380-388, February 2023., 2023
Abstract Background and purpose An early understanding of stroke mechanism may improve treatment and outcome in patients presenting with large vessel occlusion stroke (LVOS) treated with mechanical thrombectomy (MT). We aimed to investigate whether spontaneous external carotid artery (ECA) embolism detection during MT is associated with stroke etiology

Lactobacillus Endocarditis-Associated Glomerulonephritis Complicated by anti-Coagulant Nephropathy and Renal Amyloidosis

open access: yesCase Reports in Pathology, 2019
Kidney injury is a well-known sequelae of infectious endocarditis. Various types of kidney injury can be seen, including endocarditis-associated glomerulonephritis, and may affect nearly half of the patients with infectious endocarditis.

First case report of endocarditis caused by haematobacter massiliensis in China

open access: yesBMC Infectious Diseases, 2017
Background Haematobacter massiliensis, a rare species of fastidious Gram-negative, non-motile, non-sporing, non-fermentative, pleomorphic, aerobic bacilli, has rarely been documented as the cause of infectious endocarditis in literature.
