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 ...

(Elsevier B.V., 2011-06-01)
Objectives: To compare modes and sources of infection and clinical and biosafety aspects of accidental viral infections in hospital workers and research laboratory staff reported in scientific articles. Methods: PubMed, ...

Directly transmitted infections modeling considering an age-structured contact rate
(Pergamon-elsevier Science LtdOxfordInglaterra, 1999)
Susceptible-infected-recovered and susceptible-exposed-infected models
(IOP PUBLISHING LTD, 2011)
Two stochastic epidemic lattice models, the susceptible-infected-recovered and the susceptible-exposed-infected models, are studied on a Cayley tree of coordination number k. The spreading of the disease in the former is ...
Temporal fluctuation in shrub species preferences of two native rodents: The effect of infection status on habitat use
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2016)
Small mammals use plant species for gathering food resources and for shelter. Preferences for certain plant species are related to nutritional restrictions and behavioural patterns, which could be altered in the presence ...
On the origin and timing of Zika virus introduction in Brazil
(Cambridge Univ Press, 2017)
The timing and origin of Zika virus (ZIKV) introduction in Brazil has been the subject of controversy. Initially, it was assumed that the virus was introduced during the FIFA World Cup in June-July 2014. Then, it was ...
Accounting for bias in prevalence estimation: The case of a globally emerging pathogen
(John Wiley and Sons Inc, 2023-09)
Accurate quantification of infection parameters is necessary to ensure effective surveillance, investigation and mitigation of infectious diseases. However, hosts and pathogens are often imperfectly observed and key ...
