An open-data-driven agent-based model to simulate infectious disease outbreaks

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Agent-based models are a tool that can be used to better understand the dynamics of an infectious disease outbreak. An infectious disease outbreak is influenced by many factors including vaccination or immunity levels, population density, and the age ...

Household Financial Stress and Relationships During the COVID‐19 Pandemic: Findings From Australian Survey Data

open access: yesAustralian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT During the COVID‐19 pandemic, disruptions to finances and relationships were significant. Analysing Australian longitudinal survey data from May 2020 and August 2021, this study examines the Family Stress Model, which posits that financial stress influences relational dynamics within households.

Self‐Administered Taste Testing Without Water: Normative Data for the 53‐Item Waterless Empirical Taste Test (WETT)

open access: yesInternational Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background According to the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES), more than 20 million Americans suffer from chronic taste problems. Unfortunately, quantitative testing is rarely performed, self‐reports are inaccurate, and “taste” is often confused with olfaction‐dependent flavors.

Respiratory virus mRNA vaccines: mRNA Design, clinical studies, and future challenges

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Respiratory infectious diseases frequently erupt on a global scale, with RNA viruses, such as SARS‐CoV‐2, RSV, and influenza viruses, posing challenges to vaccine development due to their high mutation rates. Traditional vaccine development cycles are lengthy and struggle to keep pace with rapidly evolving viruses, whereas messenger RNA (mRNA)

Comparative pathogenicity of vaccinia virus and mpox virus infections in CAST/EiJ mice: Exploring splenomegaly and transcriptomic profiles

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
We successfully constructed CAST/EiJ mice models infected with low‐dose vaccinia virus (VACV‐L), high‐dose VACV (VACV‐H), and mpox virus (MPXV), demonstrating that VACV‐L and MPXV infections induced splenomegaly in mice, and VACV‐H infection caused mortality in mice.

Comparison of the pathogenicity of multiple SARS‐CoV‐2 variants in mouse models

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
We assessed the pathogenicity of various SARS‐CoV‐2 variants using two distinct mouse models. Our findings indicated that earlier variants, including WH‐09, Beta, and Delta, exhibited greater pathogenicity than later variants. Specifically, the Omicron variant demonstrated reduced pathogenicity, characterized by a shorter disease course and diminished ...
