Mechanisms of Baicalin Alleviates Intestinal Inflammation: Role of M1 Macrophage Polarization and Lactobacillus amylovorus

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Baicalin alleviates E. coli‐induced intestinal inflammation through dual mechanisms: direct inhibition of the TLR4/IRF/STAT signaling pathway to modulate macrophage polarization and antigen presentation, thereby regulating Th17/Treg cell differentiation; and microbiota‐mediated indirect effects via increasing Lactobacillus amylovorus abundance and ...

Vaccination hesitancy: To be vaccinated, or not to be vaccinated, that is the question in the era of COVID‐19

open access: yesPublic Health Nursing, Volume 40, Issue 1, Page 90-96, January/February 2023., 2023
Abstract COVID‐19 vaccine hesitancy poses serious challenges in achieving adequate vaccine coverage in the general population. While most studies on vaccine hesitance determinants during the COVID‐19 pandemic were quantitative, qualitative research on the reasons for vaccine resistance is still lacking.

Therapeutic Potential of Lipid Nanoparticle‐Encapsulated CD19‐Targeting mRNAs in Lupus and Rheumatoid Arthritis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study develops lipid nanoparticle‐encapsulated mRNA‐encoding antibodies (mRNab‐LNPs) targeting CD19, demonstrating robust anti‐CD19 antibody production in vivo. Intramuscular injection of mRNab‐LNPs reduces CD19+ B and plasma cells in lupus and rheumatoid arthritis mice, significantly alleviating histopathological changes and tissue injuries of ...

The measles epidemic trend over the past 30 years in a central district in Shanghai, China.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
BackgroundMeasles vaccination over the past 50 years has greatly reduced the incidence of measles. However, measles among migrants and the resulting changes in epidemiological characteristics have brought new challenges to the elimination of measles.

Estimation of reproduction numbers in real time: Conceptual and statistical challenges

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Statistical Society: Series A (Statistics in Society), Volume 185, Issue S1, Page S112-S130, November 2022., 2022
Abstract The reproduction number R$$ R $$ has been a central metric of the COVID‐19 pandemic response, published weekly by the UK government and regularly reported in the media. Here, we provide a formal definition and discuss the advantages and most common misconceptions around this quantity.

Estimating efficacy of measles supplementary immunization activities via discrete-time modeling of disease incidence time series [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
Measles is a significant source of global disease burden and child mortality. Measles vaccination through routine immunization (RI) programs in high-burden settings remains a challenge due to poor health care infrastructure and access. Supplementary immunization activities (SIA) in the form of vaccination campaigns are therefore implemented to prevent ...

Fluorescent Cell Barcoding of Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells for High‐Throughput Assessment of Vaccine‐Induced T Cell Responses in Low‐Volume Research Samples

open access: yesCytometry Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT T cell responses are rarely measured in large‐scale human vaccine studies due to the sample volumes required, as well as the logistical, technical, and financial challenges associated with available assays. Fluorescent cell barcoding has been proposed in other contexts to allow for more high‐throughput flow cytometry‐based assays.

Primate Erythroparvovirus 1 Infection in Patients with Hematological Disorders

open access: yesPathogens, 2022
Primate erythroparvovirus 1, commonly referred to as Parvovirus B19 (B19V), is a DNA virus that normally results in a mild childhood infection called “erythema infectiosum”.

Likelihood-based estimation and prediction for a measles outbreak in Samoa [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
Prediction of the progression of an infectious disease outbreak is important for planning and coordinating a response. Differential equations are often used to model an epidemic outbreak's behaviour but are challenging to parameterise. Furthermore, these models can suffer from misspecification, which biases predictions and parameter estimates ...

Use of a rapid digital microfluidics-powered immunoassay for assessing measles and rubella infection and immunity in outbreak settings in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2022
The Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) has a high measles incidence despite elimination efforts and has yet to introduce rubella vaccine. We evaluated the performance of a prototype rapid digital microfluidics powered (DMF) enzyme-linked immunoassay (
