ABSTRACT Foodborne listeriosis can cause stillbirth in pregnant individuals, prompting numerous population‐specific food safety guidelines. Dose‐response models are employed in quantitative microbial risk assessments (QMRAs) to develop such guidelines; however, pregnant hosts are under‐considered when developing dose‐response models, and the few ...

Patient‐Specific Cerebral Blood Flow Models in Predicting Internal Carotid Artery Stenting Flows
ABSTRACT Background and Purpose It is well known that the blood flow rate in the internal carotid artery (ICA) improves following a stenting procedure. Endovascular neurosurgeons are interested in estimating this flow increase prior to the interventions. This study uses patient‐specific cerebral blood flow models to predict post‐stenting ICA flow rates

Turbidity as a surrogate for Cryptosporidium removal by filtration in drinking-water QMRA models
A quantitative microbial risk assessment (QMRA) with Monte Carlo simulation was used to estimate risks of Cryptosporidium infection from drinking water. Four different approaches to assess Cryptosporidium oocyst removal by filtration were compared using three relationships between turbidity removal and oocyst removal proposed in the literature, and an ...

Campylobacter species are among the leading causes of human gastroenteritis, with improperly prepared meat identified as a major transmission source. In Rwanda, data on the epidemiology of Campylobacter are scarce. This study aimed at assessing the prevalence, antimicrobial resistance, and virulence gene profiles of thermophilic Campylobacter species ...
