Mixture of Input-Output Hidden Markov Models for Heterogeneous Disease Progression Modeling [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 A particular challenge for disease progression modeling is the heterogeneity of a disease and its manifestations in the patients. Existing approaches often assume the presence of a single disease progression characteristics which is unlikely for neurodegenerative disorders such as Parkinson's disease.

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.An all aqueous synthesis of poly(ethylene glycol)‐amide‐norbornene‐carboxylate (PEGaNBCA) is developed via reacting carbic anhydride with amino‐terminated PEG. PEGaNBCA is readily crosslinked into hydrogels by click chemistries. PEGaNBCA crosslinked thiol‐norbornene hydrogels are hydrolytically stable but can be rendered hydrolytically labile through ...

New geographical records for tick‐borne pathogens in ticks collected from cattle in Benin and Togo
Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 9, Issue 1, Page 345-352, January 2023., 2023 A total of 396 ticks were collected from cattle between 2019 and 2020, and divided in pools (two to six ticks per pool) for molecular screening. The present study highlights the presence of zoonotic agents in ticks collected from cattle in Benin and Togo.

Lyme Disease—a Tick-Borne Spirochetosis? [PDF]
Science, 1982 A treponema-like spirochete was detected in and isolated from adult Ixodes dammini , the incriminated tick vector of Lyme disease. Causally related to the spirochetes may be long-lasting cutaneous lesions that appeared on New Zealand White rabbits 10 to 12 weeks after infected ticks fed on them.

Mechanochemistry: Fundamental Principles and Applications
Advanced Science, EarlyView.In this review, the physicochemical principles of mechanochemistry are first clarified. Based on this foundation, the research basis and cutting‐edge scientific achievements in four areas are introduced: solid‐state organic chemistry, polymers, interface science, and biomechanochemistry.

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 9, Issue 1, Page 372-379, January 2023., 2023 Herds of small ruminants in Zarrin Dasht County were scrutinised for hard tick infestation. Hard ticked were collected from sheep and goats and examined under a Stereomicroscope for taxonomic identification. The prevalent species were Hyalomma marginatum (36.4%), Rhipicephalus turanicus (35.5%), Hyalomma anatolicum (26.6%), Hyalomma dromedarii (1.41 ...

Extravasation of Borrelia burgdorferi Across the Blood–Brain Barrier is an Extremely Rare Event
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Lyme disease is caused by vascular dissemination of the bacteria Borrelia. In a 3D tissue‐engineered microvessel model, Borrelia extravasation across the blood–brain barrier is extremely rare, implying that neuroborreliosis is not caused via direct cytotoxicity.

Autochthonous infection with Ehrlichia Canis and Hepatozoon Canis in dogs from Serbia
Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 9, Issue 1, Page 111-118, January 2023., 2023 Dogs are included in the study based on the presence of a minimum of three clinical and/or pathological findings that could be associated with canine ehrlichiosis and hepatozoonosis. The presence of the pathogens was confirmed in three animals (3/11, 27.3%), Ehrlichia canis was confirmed in one dog, as well as Hepatozoon canis, while one dog was co ...

Phase diagram of epidemic spreading - unimodal vs. bimodal probability distributions [PDF]
, 2009 The disease spreading on complex networks is studied in SIR model. Simulations on empirical complex networks reveal two specific regimes of disease spreading: local containment and epidemic outbreak. The variables measuring the extent of disease spreading are in general characterized by a bimodal probability distribution.

The Effect of Disease-induced Mortality on Structural Network Properties [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 10, e0136704 (2015), 2015 As the understanding of the importance of social contact networks in the spread of infectious diseases has increased, so has the interest in understanding the feedback process of the disease altering the social network. While many studies have explored the influence of individual epidemiological parameters and/or underlying network topologies on the ...
