Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe SEIR Dynamical Transmission Model of Dengue Disease with and Without the Vertical Transmission of the VirusPratchaya Chanprasopchai, I. Ming Tang, Puntani PongsumpunThe transmission of dengue disease when there is a possibility of Vertical Transmission (VT) is studied using mathematical modeling. In the normal case, the mosquito is infected by the dengue virus when it bites an infectious human being. Evidence is gathering that the mosquitoes can also be infected through sexual contact with infected male mosquito. To see the possible consequence … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 12 · 2 Jan 2018 · 9,057 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAn Insight into the Simplified RP Transmission Network, Concise Baseline and SIR Models for Simulating the Transmissibility of the Novel Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) OutbreakEva Gupta, Nand Jee KanuThe World Health Organization has reported about a Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome, Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV2) (a virus of Wuhan, China pneumonia). The present investigation explores the transmissibility of the novel Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) using some suitable mathematical models such as (a) a simplified Bats-Hosts-Reservoir (Wuhan Seafood Market)-People (BHRP) transmission network model useful in mapping the spread of the novel COVID-19 … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 16, Issue 2 · 1 Jul 2020 · 7,586 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsKnowledge Practice Gap Among Nurses Towards COVID-19 Patients’ Dead Body Care in a Tertiary Care HospitalGirraj Saini, Mahendra Singh, Prasan Kumar Panda et al.COVID-19 due to SARS-CoV-2 is a global pandemic that presents a serious challenge from many angles for healthcare professionals. The virus causes a potentially fatal disease that is easily transmitted among patients and caregivers, hence specific dead body care is required for such patients. Our study was conducted to identify knowledge, attitude, and practice regarding COVID-19 dead body care among … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 19, Issue 1 · 10 Mar 2023 · 5,756 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsMalaria and Climate Change: Discussion on Economic ImpactsMd. Shahin Mia, Rawshan Ara Begum, Ah-Choy Er et al.Problem statement: Climate change is a global environmental change that is adversely affecting human health by causing various health impacts in countries throughout the world. Climate is the most influential driving force of vector-borne diseases such as malaria. Changes in climate factors substantially affect reproduction, development, distribution and seasonal transmissions of malaria. Climate change increases the outbreak of malaria which … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2011 · 6,584 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsApplication of Optimal Control to the Epidemiology of Fowl Pox Transmission Dynamics in PoultryUdofia Ekere Sunday, Inyama Simeon ChiomaProblem statement: In this study, we present the mathematical model of the transmission dynamics of fowl pox infection in poultry. Approach: It describes the interaction between the susceptible and the infected birds which results in a system of ordinary differential equation. Introducing the control which represents the effort in applying chemoprophylaxis control u1 and treatment control u2 in birds with … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 13 Jun 2012 · 6,955 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDengue Fever Prediction Empowered by Radial Basis Function Networks, Dynamic Mode Decomposition, and Learning-Based Foraging AlgorithmArchana T, Faritha Banu JDengue fever is presently considered a major health threat that must be addressed. External and internal factors that induce nonlinear oscillations in the occurrence of dengue disease have made optimal resource allocation stimulating. Public health initiatives aimed at eradicating this vector use accurate and timely data through field processes. In dengue-endemic nations, early dengue prediction remains a main concern for … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 4 · 16 Apr 2026 · 1,496 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRisk Factors for Bovine Tuberculosis Transmission in Burkina Faso’s Cattle HerdsArouna Zoungrana, Pingdwende Albert Patrick Vokouma, Badjibassa Akounda et al.Bovine tuberculosis is a zoonotic disease, primarily caused by Mycobacterium bovis, that poses a serious threat to both human and animal health. Understanding the risk factors that contribute to its spread is critical for developing effective prevention and control strategies. This cross-sectional study investigated risk factors associated with bovine tuberculosis in cattle herds in Burkina Faso. A structured survey questionnaire … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 11 Apr 2026 · 1,402 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Novel Characterization of the Incidence Term in Epidemic Models: Interpretation of the Resulting Basic Reproduction Number in Terms of Healthcare AccessibilityFrancis BenyahWe propose a novel characterization of the incidence term in mathematical epidemic models. This new characterization takes into consideration the fact that at any given time, only a proportion $\kappa \ (0 \, \le \, \kappa \, \le \, 1)$, of infectives have access to healthcare. Infectives without access remain untreated and therefore, become reservoirs for new transmissions.The proposed incidence … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 1 Oct 2026 · 582 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe European Wild Boar (Sus scrofa) as a Reservoir of Tuberculosis: Ecological Drivers and Management ImplicationsGiovanna Liguori, Renato Lombardi, Fabio Castagna et al.Bovine tuberculosis (bTB), an infectious disease primarily caused by Mycobacterium bovis and other members of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex, represents a significant challenge to both animal and public health. Despite successful control programs in numerous regions, the presence of wildlife reservoirs, notably wild boar (Sus scrofa), impedes complete eradication and sustains disease propagation. bTB prevalence varies across Europe, with higher … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 3 · 16 Nov 2025 · 2,621 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Path Analysis to Understanding the Epidemiology of Murine Typhus in South TexasHongwei Wang, Orlando M. Patricio, Fernando G. Quintana et al.This study aims to investigate statistically if there is a causality for the murine typhus endemic disease related to precipitation, temperature and the natural cycle of flea development in South Texas. Path analysis was used to determine the mediating and moderating variables that cause murine typhus disease. Three path diagram models were tested. Model 3 shows a clearer path on … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 20, Issue 1 · 4 Mar 2024 · 5,584 accessesView PDFCite
