Suppression of Beneficial Mutations in Dynamic Microbial Populations

Physical Review Letters, 2017
Quantitative predictions for the spread of mutations in bacterial populations are essential to interpret evolution experiments and to improve the stability of synthetic gene circuits. We derive analytical expressions for the suppression factor for beneficial mutations in populations that undergo periodic dilutions, covering arbitrary population sizes ...

Transfection of Culicoides sonorensis biting midge cell lines with Wolbachia pipientis

Parasites & Vectors, 2019
Background Biting midges of the genus Culicoides vector multiple veterinary pathogens and are difficult to control. Endosymbionts particularly Wolbachia pipientis may offer an alternative to control populations of Culicoides and/or impact disease ...

The evaluation of control measures against Schistosoma mekongi in Cambodia by a mathematical model [PDF]

, 2008
We constructed a mathematical model for the transmission of Schistosoma mekongi in Cambodia. The simulation of the model will be instrumental in planning schistosomiasis control measures.

Ten year trends in community HIV viral load in Barbados: implications for treatment as prevention. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
BackgroundTreatment as prevention is a paradigm in HIV medicine which describes the public health benefit of antiretroviral therapy (ART). It is based on research showing substantial reductions in the risk of HIV transmission in persons with optimally ...

Mechanical suppression of premature ventricular complexes during catheter ablation procedures

Indian Pacing and Electrophysiology Journal, 2021
Introduction: Mechanical suppression of premature ventricular complexes (PVCs) is not a well-known observation. We retrospectively reviewed this phenomenon in the Ventricular Arrhythmia (VA) ablation procedures performed at Richard L.

Viral suppression after 12 months of antiretroviral therapy in low- and middle-income countries: a systematic review

Bulletin of the World Health Organization, 2013
OBJECTIVE: To establish estimates of viral suppression in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) in patients who received antiretroviral therapy (ART) for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection.

The Very Low-Dose Dexamethasone Suppression Test in the General Population: A Cross-Sectional Study. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
Determinants of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis functioning are increasingly explored in population-based studies. However, functional tests measuring the negative feedback of the HPA axis cannot easily be implemented into large ...

Environmental Brownian noise suppresses explosions in population dynamics

Stochastic Processes and their Applications, 2002
It is well known that by adding a noise term to the right hand side of an ordinary differential equation it is often possible to change completely stability properties of solutions. In particular, solutions to a stochastic differential equation may exist globally while solutions to the corresponding deterministic problem blow up in finite time.

An analysis of dynamical suppression of spontaneous emission

, 1998
It has been shown recently [see, for example, S.-Y. Zhu and M. O. Scully, Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 76}, 388 (1996)] that a dynamical suppression of spontaneous emission can occur in a three-level system when an external field drives transitions between a ...

Suppression of allergic airway inflammation by helminth-induced regulatory T cells [PDF]

, 2005
Allergic diseases mediated by T helper type (Th) 2 cell immune responses are rising dramatically in most developed countries. Exaggerated Th2 cell reactivity could result, for example, from diminished exposure to Th1 cell–inducing microbial infections ...
