Current Epidemiology and Trends in Meningococcal Disease—United States, 1996–2015
Clinical Infectious Diseases, 2018 Background In 2005, meningococcal conjugate vaccine (MenACWY) was recommended for routine use among adolescents aged 11-18 years. This report describes the epidemiologic features of meningococcal disease and trends in meningococcal disease incidence ...

Forecasting Disease Burden In Philippines: A Symbolic Regression Analysis [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Burden of disease measures the impact of living with illness and injury and dying prematurely and it is increasing worldwide leading cause of death both global and national. This paper aimed to propose an index of diseases and evaluate a mathematical model to describe the number of burden of disease by cause in the Philippines from 1990 - 2016. Through

Pairwise likelihood estimation of latent autoregressive count models [PDF]
, 2018 Latent autoregressive models are useful time series models for the analysis of infectious disease data. Evaluation of the likelihood function of latent autoregressive models is intractable and its approximation through simulation-based methods appears as a standard practice.

CheXseen: Unseen Disease Detection for Deep Learning Interpretation of Chest X-rays [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 We systematically evaluate the performance of deep learning models in the presence of diseases not labeled for or present during training. First, we evaluate whether deep learning models trained on a subset of diseases (seen diseases) can detect the presence of any one of a larger set of diseases.

Meningococcal Disease and Travel [PDF]
Clinical Infectious Diseases, 2002 Invasive meningococcal disease, in both endemic and epidemic forms, is the cause of significant morbidity and mortality worldwide. Despite all advances in therapy, the fatality rate of meningococcal meningitis remains unacceptably high, between 5% and 10%, and a similar proportion suffers long-term neurological sequalae.

Harnessing the therapeutic potential of bacterial extracellular vesicles via functional peptides
Interdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.Bacterial extracellular vesicles (BEVs) are increasingly exploited as therapeutic agents or delivery vehicles for disease treatment due to their intrinsic structure, delivery capacity, immunogenic property, facile production, and versatile modification.

The immunopathogenesis of meningococcal disease [PDF]
Journal of Clinical Pathology, 2003 This review describes the mechanisms of the immune response to meningococcal disease, examining the extent to which individual variation of the immune response can determine susceptibility. It concludes by summarising the difficulties encountered by recent efforts to develop new immunomodulatory treatments.

Position statement on the management of pregnancy in sickle cell disease
Australian and New Zealand Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, EarlyView.Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a hereditary haemoglobinopathy which causes multi‐organ dysfunction. Pregnancies in SCD are high risk with significant maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality, including vaso‐occlusive crises, thrombosis, anaemia, placental insufficiency, fetal growth restriction, preterm birth and medication effects. High level evidence
