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 ...

Improving Comfort of Patients with Ureteral Obstruction and Malignant Disease Should Be of Concern
Journal of Palliative Medicine, 2016 Dear Editor: The ureteral stents are defined as devices that are inserted inside obstructive ureters to maintain patency. Ureteral obstruction caused by extrinsic compression is a challenge in the management of malignant diseases.

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Aim The role of prenatal urinoma in lower urinary tract obstruction (LUTO) such as posterior urethral valves (PUV) is debated. We aimed to describe the risk factors associated with fetal urinoma and the association between fetal urinoma and postnatal renal function before 2 years of age.

Severe Vesico-ureteral Reflux and Urine Sequestration: Mathematical Relations and Urodynamic Consequences [PDF]
arXiv, 2009 Some simple mathematical formulae to calculate the volumes of proximal pyeloureteral reflexive systems are presented, and the results are compared to bladder capacity values. Using the results of the calculi, the author discusses possible implications of severe urinary sequestration in the pyeloureteral systems.

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.

PROTEOMICS, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Chronic kidney disease (CKD) poses a significant and growing global health challenge, making early detection and slowing disease progression essential for improving patient outcomes. Traditional diagnostic methods such as glomerular filtration rate and proteinuria are insufficient to capture the complexity of CKD.
