Retracing Micro-Epidemics of Chagas Disease Using Epicenter Regression
Vector-borne transmission of Chagas disease has become an urban problem in the city of Arequipa, Peru, yet the debilitating symptoms that can occur in the chronic stage of the disease are rarely seen in hospitals in the city. The lack of obvious clinical disease in Arequipa has led to speculation that the local strain of the etiologic agent, Trypanosoma cruzi, has low chronic pathogenicity. The...

The focus of this paper is the application of statistical models to the study of socioeconomic conditioning factors in perinatal Chagas' disease conducted in Rosario, Argentina. A case (154) and control (158) design was applied to investigate socioeconomic and cultural differences in pregnant women in Hospital Roque Sáenz Peña as to their infection status.

متن کاملRetracing CSP
The original CSP was a language for parallel imperative programs communicating by synchronized message-passing. Most of the early foundational work concerned a more abstract process algebra, now known as Theoretical CSP (or TCSP). The early semantic models involved communication traces, refusals, failures, and divergence traces. These models support compositional reasoning about safety properti...
متن کاملMitigating Epidemics through Mobile Micro-measures
Epidemics of infectious diseases are among the largest threats to the quality of life and the economic and social well-being of developing countries. The arsenal of measures against such epidemics is well-established, but costly and insufficient to mitigate their impact. In this paper, we argue that mobile technology adds a powerful weapon to this arsenal, because (a) mobile devices endow us wi...
