Waterborne Outbreak of Microsporidiosis
host cellular immune response among HTLV-I carriers. In data published elsewhere, we documented subclinical immunosuppression on the basis of the association of HTLV-I infection with reduced response to the tuberculin-purified protein derivative (PPD) recall antigen [3, 4]. In vitro studies suggest that the nonresponsiveness to PPD in these HTLV-I carriers may be related to a lack of IFN-g prod...
متن کاملA waterborne outbreak of Salmonella Saintpaul.
Contamination of a tank water supply system led to an outbreak of Salmonella Saintpaul with 28 cases of gastroenteritis amongst over 200 workers at a large construction site. The outbreak was identified following notification of two salmonellosis cases by general practitioners from different towns during March 1999.

متن کاملWaterborne outbreak control: which disinfectant?
Drinking water disinfection was shown to be an important public health measure around the turn of the century. In the United States, it was perhaps the single most important factor in controlling typhoid fever, a waterborne disease that was rampant throughout the world during the last century. It may also be assumed that disinfection was important in limiting the number of cases of other diseas...
متن کاملSimulation-Based Radar Detection Methods
In this paper, radar detection based on Monte Carlo sampling is studied. Two detectors based on Importance Sampling are presented. In these detectors, called Particle Detector, the approximated likelihood ratio is calculated by Monte Carlo sampling. In the first detector, the unknown parameters are first estimated and are substituted in the likelihood ratio (like the GLRT method). In the sec...
متن کاملa study on rate making and required reserves determination in reinsurance market: a simulation
reinsurance is widely recognized as an important instrument in the capital management of an insurance company as well as its risk management tool. this thesis is intended to determine premium rates for different types of reinsurance policies. also, given the fact that the reinsurance coverage of every company depends upon its reserves, so different types of reserves and the method of their calc...
