【The Spreading Profile for an Emerging Infectious Disease and Its Resemblance to the KdV Solution】 Full article: https://lnkd.in/gJcjQzzj (Authored by Zach Fendler and Valipuram S. Manoranjan, from Washington State University, USA.) The #SIR_model describes the transmission of infectious diseases between susceptible and infected individuals and provides the basic framework for almost all subsequent epidemic models. This work gains an understanding of the SIR model for novel or emerging infectious diseases by deriving time-dependent solutions for the spreading profiles using a #second_order_approximation and notices that a solution that resembles the well-known soliton solution of the Korteweg-de Vries (#KdV) equation is obtained. #Nonlinear_PDE #Solitary_Wave

It’s complicated. - Is it? Read about how we define “#uncomplicated #candidemia”: 📖✨ https://lnkd.in/dxEYu79y An important step towards building #consensus and #comparability in clinical trials and practice - ultimately improving outcomes for #patients. 🧭 Congrats to the authors! Excellent lead by Oliver A. Cornely and Ilana Reinhold #Candidemia #InvasiveFungalInfections #LancetID #openaccess
Did you ever wonder how “uncomplicated candidaemia” could be defined beyond its association with deep-seated infections? In our newly published review in The Lancet Infectious Diseases, we explore this very question in detail. A big thank you to all authors for their contributions to this project. PD Dr. med. Susanne Picardi, Blasius Liss, Danila Seidel, PhD, Jannik Stemler, Philipp Koehler, Tamara Rügamer, Rosanne Sprute, Oliver A. Cornely I’m excited about the future projects, ongoing developments, and—most importantly—the potential implications our work may have for patients in treatment duration. https://lnkd.in/dxEYu79y #Candidaemia #AntifungalTreatment #TreatmentShortening #InfectiousDiseases The Lancet Infectious Diseases

#DidYouKnow? 60% of all human infectious diseases are zoonotic in origin. Examples of zoonoses include Rift Valley Fever, MERS-CoV & some strains of #AvianInfluenza. But what exactly are zoonotic diseases and how should we address them?⤵️ https://lnkd.in/ggYPjtUC

I've been learning quite a bit about zoonotic diseases over the past few months, in particular #avianinfluenza. A shocking statistic is that 75% of emerging and re-emerging human diseases are zoonotic. This is why we should all be concerned about preventing, detecting, and responding to zoonoses. Now, more than ever, a coordinated, collaborative approach is needed across all sectors and disciplines responsible for health. It is the only way that we will be able to effectively address shared threats at the human-animal-environment interface.

Diagnosing #pneumococcal infections in children can be challenging with culture-based methods. A new study in the journal, BMC Infectious Diseases evaluated the potential of urinary antigen detection assays for identifying pneumococcal serotypes in children with community-acquired #pneumonia in Colorado, US. #childhealth Click on the link below to learn more: https://www.pfi.sr/NJ4

Fast-Tracking Epidemic Response: Uganda Boosts Disease Diagnosis Quick disease detection is a cornerstone of global health security, and Uganda is stepping up efforts to strengthen diagnosis and sustain rapid epidemic response. With support from U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Baylor Foundation Uganda (BFU) is partnering with the Ministry of Health - Uganda to install USTAR diagnostic machines and conduct on-site training at four out of seven pilot sites nationwide, including Hoima District. Previously, Mpox samples were sent to Kampala for confirmation. However, with this decentralised effort, Mpox diagnosis time could be cut down from two weeks to just 60 minutes. This initiative strengthens BFU’s ongoing efforts to build capacity for faster and more efficient diagnosis. Dithan Kiragga, Texas Children's Global Health Network, Peter J.

'Europe is entering a new phase — where longer, more widespread and more intense transmission of mosquito-borne diseases is becoming the new normal.', Pamela Rendi-Wagner, European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC) Director, stated. The #FLAVIVACCINE project is at the forefront of addressing this emerging threat by developing a vaccine candidate to combat these dangerous viruses, including dengue, yellow fever, Zika, and West Nile virus.
