Estimation of Covid-19 Prevalence from Serology Tests: A Partial Identification Approach [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
We propose a partial identification method for estimating disease prevalence from serology studies. Our data are results from antibody tests in some population sample, where the test parameters, such as the true/false positive rates, are unknown. Our method scans the entire parameter space, and rejects parameter values using the joint data density as ...

PepSIRF + QIIME 2: software tools for automated, reproducible analysis of highly-multiplexed serology data [PDF]

arXiv, 2022
PepSIRF is a command-line, module-based open-source software package that facilitates the analysis of data from highly-multiplexed serology assays (e.g., PepSeq or PhIP-Seq). It has nine separate modules in its current release (v1.5.0): demux, info, subjoin, norm, bin, zscore, enrich, link, and deconv.

Prediction, dynamics, and visualization of antigenic phenotypes of seasonal influenza viruses [PDF]

, 2015
Human seasonal influenza viruses evolve rapidly, enabling the virus population to evade immunity and re-infect previously infected individuals. Antigenic properties are largely determined by the surface glycoprotein hemagglutinin (HA) and amino acid substitutions at exposed epitope sites in HA mediate loss of recognition by antibodies.

Edaravone Administered Orally and Via Nasogastric Tube in Healthy Adults: A Comparative Bioavailability Phase 1 Study

Clinical Pharmacology in Drug Development, Volume 12, Issue 1, Page 77-84, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Intravenous edaravone is used to treat patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. This randomized, open‐label, two‐way crossover, single‐dose phase 1 study compared the relative bioavailability of a newly developed edaravone oral suspension when administered orally and via a nasogastric tube (NGT) as a model of percutaneous endoscopic ...
