Prevalence, infected density or individual probability of infection? Assessing vector infection risk in the wild transmission of Chagas disease
(The Royal Society, 2020)
Vector-borne infectious disease dynamics result mainly from the intertwined effect of the diversity, abundance, and behaviour of hosts and vectors. Most studies, however, have analysed the relationship between host-species ...
Surveillance for zoonotic vector-borne infections using sick dogs from southeastern Brazil
(Mary Ann Liebert, Inc., 2007-12-01)
For many vector-borne organisms, dogs can be used as sentinels to estimate the risk of human infection. The objective of this study was to use dogs as sentinels for multiple vector-borne organisms in order to evaluate the ...

Estimation of R(0) from the initial phase of an outbreak of a vector-borne infection
(WILEY-BLACKWELL PUBLISHING, INC, 2010)
The magnitude of the basic reproduction ratio R(0) of an epidemic can be estimated in several ways, namely, from the final size of the epidemic, from the average age at first infection, or from the initial growth phase of ...
Acute Vector-Borne Viral Infection: Zika and MinION Surveillance
(American Society for Microbiology, 2020)
Interpretation of Coagulation Tendency Contributing to Thrombosis in Vector-Borne Diseases (Ehrlichiosis, Anaplasmosis, Leishmaniosis, and Dirofilariasis) among Dogs
(Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul, 2017)
A hypothesis for explaining single outbreaks (like the Black Death in European cities) of vector-borne infections
(CHURCHILL LIVINGSTONE, 2009)
We propose a mechanism by which single outbreaks of vector-borne infections can happen even when the value of the basic reproduction number, R(o), of the infection is below one. With this hypothesis we have shown that ...
Interval observer for uncertain time-varying SIR-SI model of vector-borne disease
(EMAp, 2017)
The issue of state estimation is considered for an SIR-SI model describing a vector-borne disease such as dengue fever, with seasonal variations and uncertainties in the transmission rates. Assuming continuous measurement ...
Food web structure and microenvironment affect Chagas disease vector infection and abundance in a rural landscape
(John Wiley & Sons, Ltd, 2023)
