PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2016 Introduction Louse-borne relapsing fever (LBRF) is an acute febrile infection that is typically characterized by one to three fairly regular waves of bacteremia [1,2]. It is caused by Borrelia recurrentis, a motile spirochete that measures 5 to 40 μm in

The Role of Nonlinear Relapse on Contagion Amongst Drinking Communities [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 Relapse, the recurrence of a disorder following a symptomatic remission, is a frequent outcome in substance abuse disorders. Some of our prior results suggested that relapse, in the context of abusive drinking, is likely an "unbeatable" force as long as recovered individuals continue to interact in the environments that lead to and/or reinforce the ...

The Dynamics of Vector-Borne Relapsing Diseases [PDF]
arXiv, 2016 In this paper we describe the dynamics of a vector-borne relapsing disease, such as tick-borne relapsing fever, using the methods of compartmental models. After some motivation, model description, and a brief overview of the theory of compartmental models, we compute a general form of the reproductive ratio $R_0$, which is the average number of new ...

Tick‐Borne Relapsing Fever in Dogs
Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, 2016 Background In the United States, Tick‐Borne Relapsing Fever (TBRF) in dogs is caused by the spirochete bacteria Borrelia turicatae and Borrelia hermsii, transmitted by Ornithodoros spp. ticks.

Addict Free -- A Smart and Connected Relapse Intervention Mobile App [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 It is widely acknowledged that addiction relapse is highly associated with spatial-temporal factors such as some specific places or time periods. Current studies suggest that those factors can be utilized for better relapse interventions, however, there is no relapse prevention application that makes use of those factors.

Pathogen and Host Response Dynamics in a Mouse Model of Borrelia hermsii Relapsing Fever
Veterinary Sciences, 2016 Most Borrelia species that cause tick-borne relapsing fever utilize rodents as their natural reservoirs, and for decades laboratory-bred rodents have served as informative experimental models for the disease.
