Efficacy of probiotics to prevent and/or alleviate childhood rotavirus infections

open access: yesJournal of Functional Foods, 2019
Probiotics have been recommended to prevent or alleviate childhood rotavirus infections. This study aimed to generate more reliable estimates of effects of probiotics on childhood rotavirus infection, by the use of a meta-analysis approach.

On the Universality of Jordan Centers for Estimating Infection Sources in Tree Networks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Finding the infection sources in a network when we only know the network topology and infected nodes, but not the rates of infection, is a challenging combinatorial problem, and it is even more difficult in practice where the underlying infection spreading model is usually unknown a priori. In this paper, we are interested in finding a source estimator

Detection of Human Group A and C Rotaviruses in Pediatric Patients with Acute Gastroenteritis by Real Time RT-PCR Assay: A Preliminary Study

open access: yesMakara Journal of Health Research, 2011
Rotavirus causes 25 - 55% of all hospital admissions for diarrhea and approximately 611.000 deaths every year in developing countries. Clinically, it is not possible to recognize the diarrhea caused by rotavirus and other infections.

A marginal moment matching approach for fitting endemic-epidemic models to underreported disease surveillance counts [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
Count data are often subject to underreporting, especially in infectious disease surveillance. We propose an approximate maximum likelihood method to fit count time series models from the endemic-epidemic class to underreported data. The approach is based on marginal moment matching where underreported processes are approximated through completely ...

Seroepidemiology of group A rotavirus in suburban São Paulo, Brazil [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
Age-specifc patterns of rotavirus infection were investigated using a randomly selected and representative sample of sera from a suburban community of São Paulo, Brazil screened for class-specifc antibodies to group A rotavirus.

The Effect of Alcohol‐Based Virucidal Hand Sanitizers on Skin Barrier Function—A Randomised Experimental Study

open access: yesContact Dermatitis, EarlyView.
Our study suggests that the irritative potential of alcohol‐based virucidal hand rubs (ABVHRs) varies, likely due to differences in alcohol type (1‐propanol in particular) and to the proportions and concentrations of alcohols or alcohol mixtures used. PA appears to be well tolerated and may enhance virucidal activity.

Spatially dense stochastic epidemic models with infection-age dependent infectivity [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
We study an individual-based stochastic spatial epidemic model where the number of locations and the number of individuals at each location both grow to infinity. Each individual is associated with a random infection-age dependent infectivity function. Individuals are infected through interactions across the locations with heterogeneous effects.
