Epidemiology of Infectious Diseases
Depending on intensity and extent occurrence of infectious diseases can be distinguished accordingly: Sporadic – isolated cases of disease without obvious epidemiological connections Epidemical – mass occurrence of infectious disease in mutual epidemiological connection taking place in a limited territory for a certain amount of time. When two or more cases of disease occur in one family or hou...
متن کاملNumerical solution of the spread of infectious diseases mathematical model based on shifted Bernstein polynomials
The Volterra delay integral equations have numerous applications in various branches of science, including biology, ecology, physics and modeling of engineering and natural sciences. In many cases, it is difficult to obtain analytical solutions of these equations. So, numerical methods as an efficient approximation method for solving Volterra delay integral equations are of interest to many res...

متن کاملMathematical modelling of infectious diseases.
INTRODUCTION Mathematical models allow us to extrapolate from current information about the state and progress of an outbreak, to predict the future and, most importantly, to quantify the uncertainty in these predictions. Here, we illustrate these principles in relation to the current H1N1 epidemic. SOURCES OF DATA Many sources of data are used in mathematical modelling, with some forms of mo...
متن کاملMolecular epidemiology of infectious diseases
Molecular epidemiology (ME) is a branch of epidemiology developed by merging molecular biology into epidemiological studies. In this paper, the authors try to discuss the ways that molecular epidemiology studies identify infectious diseases' causation and pathogenesis, and unravel infectious agents' sources, reservoirs, circulation pattern, transmission pattern, transmission probability, and tr...
