A stochastic differential equation SIS epidemic model [PDF]
In this paper we extend the classical susceptible-infected-susceptible epidemic model from a deterministic framework to a stochastic one and formulate it as a stochastic differential equation (SDE) for the number of infectious individuals $I(t)$. We then

Pneumococcal genetic variability in age-dependent bacterial carriage
The characteristics of pneumococcal carriage vary between infants and adults. Host immune factors have been shown to contribute to these age-specific differences, but the role of pathogen sequence variation is currently less well-known. Identification of

PD‐1 Inhibits CD4+ TRM‐Mediated cDC1 Mobilization via Suppressing JAML in Human NSCLC
CD4+ tissue‐resident memory T cells (TRMs) in non‐small cell lung cancer recruit conventional type 1 dendritic cells via XCL1‐XCR1 signaling, orchestrating antitumor immunity. The costimulatory molecule JAML is essential for this process. PD‐1 blockade restores JAML expression and cDC1 mobilization, while JAML agonists synergize with anti‐PD‐1 therapy,

THE SOLUBLE SPECIFIC SUBSTANCE OF PNEUMOCOCCUS
1. A method is given for the concentration and purification of the soluble specific substance of the pneumococcus. 2. The material obtained by this method is shown to consist mainly of a carbohydrate which appears to be a polysaccharide built up of ...

ABSTRACT Sutimlimab is a monoclonal antibody against complement fraction C1s approved for the treatment of hemolytic anemia due to cold agglutinin disease (CAD). Here, we analyzed and report the largest international CAD cohort of sutimlimab‐treated patients ever reported to highlight its safety and effectiveness in the real‐world setting. We accrued a
