The Recent Development in the Diagnosis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Smart Medicine, Volume 4, Issue 2, June 2025.
Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) remains a major global health challenge due to slow, low‐sensitivity traditional diagnostics. Rapid, highly sensitive point‐of‐care tests are critical for timely diagnosis and treatment, reducing transmission. This study reviews the evolution of MTB diagnostic tests, emphasizing advancements and addressing accessibility

Sufficient reproduction numbers to prevent recurrent epidemics

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, Page 1186-1200, June 2025.
Abstract Current practice in the design and evaluation of control measures in disease ecology and epidemiology, including vaccination, is largely based on reproduction numbers (RNs), which represent prognostic indices of long‐term disease transmission, both in naïve populations (basic RN) and in the presence of prior exposure or infection containment ...

Surface-modified measles vaccines encoding oligomeric, prefusion-stabilized SARS-CoV-2 spike glycoproteins boost neutralizing antibody responses to Omicron and historical variants, independent of measles seropositivity

mBio
Serum titers of SARS-CoV-2-neutralizing antibodies (nAbs) correlate well with protection from symptomatic COVID-19 but decay rapidly in the months following vaccination or infection.

Do Neighborhoods Matter for Individual Decision‐Making? The Case of COVID‐19 Vaccination in Sweden

Journal of Regional Science, Volume 65, Issue 3, Page 866-886, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Much research has highlighted the significance of neighborhood effects on individual‐level choices and outcomes. But it has proven difficult to disentangle the influence of those that an individual shares a residential space with from that of other peers, such as work colleagues and family members.

Investigation of an outbreak of measles: Failure to vaccinate or vaccine failure in a community of predominantly fishermen in Kerala

Journal of Infection and Public Health, 2015
Summary: Measles outbreaks continue to occur in developing countries. This study attempted to explore the context of an outbreak of measles in a community of predominantly fishermen in Kerala to find out whether the outbreak was the result of a failure ...

The Niche Connectivity Paradox: Multichrome Contagions Overcome Vaccine Hesitancy more effectively than Monochromacy [PDF]

arXiv
The rise of vaccine hesitancy has caused a resurgence of vaccine-preventable diseases such as measles and pertussis, alongside widespread skepticism and refusals of COVID-19 vaccinations. While categorizing individuals as either supportive of or opposed to vaccines provides a convenient dichotomy of vaccine attitudes, vaccine hesitancy is far more ...

Possible counter-intuitive impact of local vaccine mandates for vaccine-preventable infectious diseases [PDF]

arXiv
We model the impact of local vaccine mandates on the spread of vaccine-preventable infectious diseases, which in the absence of vaccines will mainly affect children. Examples of such diseases are measles, rubella, mumps and pertussis. To model the spread of the pathogen, we use a stochastic SIR (Susceptible, Infectious, Recovered) model with two levels
