Revisiting the basic reproductive number for malaria and its implications for malaria control.

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2007
The prospects for the success of malaria control depend, in part, on the basic reproductive number for malaria, R0. Here, we estimate R0 in a novel way for 121 African populations, and thereby increase the number of R0 estimates for malaria by an order ...

Should more aggressive surgical resection be considered in the treatment for Bismuth types I and II hilar cholangiocarcinoma? A meta-analysis

open access: yesAsian Journal of Surgery, 2023
Evidence regarding the optical surgical extent for Bismuth type I/II HCCA is lacking. we aims to evaluate the optimal surgical methods for Bismuth type I/II HCCA. Studies comparing bile duct resection (BDR) and BDR combined with liver resection (BDR + LR)

Performance limits for channelized cellular telephone systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
Studies the performance of channel assignment algorithms for “channelized” (e.g., FDMA or TDMA) cellular telephone systems, via mathematical models, each of which is characterized by a pair (H,p), where H is a hypergraph describing the channel reuse ...

The Axioms Independence of Pseudo-Weak-R0 Algebras and Filters

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2014
The most simplified axiom systems of pseudo-weak-R0 algebras and pseudo-R0 algebras are obtained, and the mutually independence of axioms is proved. We introduce the notions of filters and normal filters in pseudo-weak-R0 algebras.

More on Dα-Closed Sets in Topological Spaces

open access: yesJournal of Mathematics, 2021
The aim of this paper is to present and study topological properties of Dα-derived, Dα-border, Dα-frontier, and Dα-exterior of a set based on the concept of Dα-open sets.

Galactic Rotation and Solar Motion from Stellar Kinematics

open access: yes, 2012
I present three methods to determine the distance to the Galactic centre R0, the solar azimuthal velocity in the Galactic rest frame Vg,\odot and hence the local circular speed Vc at R0.

Model Parameters and Outbreak Control for SARS

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2004
Control of the 2002–2003 severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) outbreak was based on rapid diagnosis coupled with effective patient isolation. We used uncertainty and sensitivity analysis of the basic reproductive number R0 to assess the role that ...

The basic reproduction number as a predictor for epidemic outbreaks in temporal networks. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
The basic reproduction number R0--the number of individuals directly infected by an infectious person in an otherwise susceptible population--is arguably the most widely used estimator of how severe an epidemic outbreak can be.
