Latent Gaussian modeling and INLA: A review with focus on space-time applications [PDF]

, 2016
Bayesian hierarchical models with latent Gaussian layers have proven very flexible in capturing complex stochastic behavior and hierarchical structures in high-dimensional spatial and spatio-temporal data.

NetMetaEasy: enabling rapid and user‐friendly network meta‐analysis (NMA) for comparative effectiveness research

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Network meta‐analysis (NMA) enables the simultaneous comparison of multiple treatments by combining direct and indirect evidence across a network of studies. While its application is rapidly expanding in pharmacological research and clinical guideline development, performing NMA typically requires advanced statistical knowledge ...

Integrated Nested Laplace Approximations (INLA)

, 2019
This is a short description and basic introduction to the Integrated nested Laplace approximations (INLA) approach. INLA is a deterministic paradigm for Bayesian inference in latent Gaussian models (LGMs) introduced in Rue et al. (2009). INLA relies on a combination of analytical approximations and efficient numerical integration schemes to achieve ...

Bayesian joint spatio-temporal analysis of multiple diseases [PDF]

, 2019
In this paper we propose a Bayesian hierarchical spatio-temporal model for the joint analysis of multiple diseases which includes specific and shared spatial and temporal effects.

Mapping Escolar (Lepidocybium flavobrunneum) in Motion: Oceanographic Forces Shaping Its Habitat in the Southwestern South Atlantic, With Insights From Fishers' Perceptions

Fisheries Oceanography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lepidocybium flavobrunneum [Smith, 1843], commonly known as escolar, is a large pelagic species, important for global and local fisheries, particularly in the southwestern South Atlantic Ocean (SWAO), where it constitutes a significant portion of the catch.

Directed evolution and targeted mutagenesis to murinize listeria monocytogenes internalin A for enhanced infectivity in the murine oral infection model

BMC Microbiology, 2010
Background Internalin A (InlA) is a critical virulence factor which mediates the initiation of Listeria monocytogenes infection by the oral route in permissive hosts.

Listeria monocytogenes internalin B activates junctional endocytosis to accelerate intestinal invasion. [PDF]

PLoS Pathogens, 2010
Listeria monocytogenes (Lm) uses InlA to invade the tips of the intestinal villi, a location at which cell extrusion generates a transient defect in epithelial polarity that exposes the receptor for InlA, E-cadherin, on the cell surface.

Estimating Velocities of Infectious Disease Spread Through Spatio‐Temporal Log‐Gaussian Cox Point Processes

International Statistical Review, EarlyView.
Summary Understanding the spread of infectious diseases such as COVID‐19 is crucial for informed decision‐making and resource allocation. A critical component of disease behaviour is the velocity with which disease spreads, defined as the rate of change between time and space.

The Majority of Genotypes of the Virulence Gene inlA Are Intact among Natural Watershed Isolates of Listeria monocytogenes from the Central California Coast.

PLoS ONE, 2016
Internalin A is an essential virulence gene involved in the uptake of the foodborne pathogen Listeria monocytogenes into host cells. It is intact in clinical strains and often truncated due to Premature Stop Codons (PMSCs) in isolates from processed ...
