Severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) is now a global public health threat with many medical, ethical, social, economic, political, and legal implications. The nonspecific signs and symptoms of this disease, coupled with a relatively long incubation period and the initial absence of a reliable diagnostic test, limited the understanding of the magnitude of the outbreak. This paper outlines ou...

−Timely detection of disease outbreak events is of paramount importance for the defense against infectious diseases and biological threats. Internet-based communications can provide good situational awareness for countries where public data collection is inadequate, unreliable or missing. The key challenge is to sift through this vast amount of unstructured text to identify relevant reports and...

abo blood type antigens are polymorphic, inherited structures presented on the surface of red blood cells. although abo blood group antigens is the most important antigens in transfusion medicine, its main role is not clearly clarified. correlation between abo blood group and susceptibility to certain infectious and non-infectious diseases is a controversial issue. since, lack of blood type ant...

Cellular Automata (CAs) are often used to simulate complex systems. One such application of a CA is to simulate the spread of disease through a susceptible population. This paper describes EpiViz, a CA-based epidemic simulator which uses a variety of input parameters, such as probability of infection, infectious period, vaccination rate, mode of infection, and probability of recovery to influen...

BACKGROUND The ability to detect disease outbreaks in their early stages is a key component of efficient disease control and prevention. With the increased availability of electronic health-care data and spatio-temporal analysis techniques, there is great potential to develop algorithms to enable more effective disease surveillance. However, to ensure that the algorithms are effective they need...

Infectious disease outbreaks can be devastating because of their sudden occurrence, as well as the complexity of monitoring and controlling them. Outbreaks in wildlife are even more challenging to observe and describe, especially when small animals or secretive species are involved. Modeling such infectious disease events is relevant to investigating their dynamics and is critical for decision ...

Background: Avian infectious bronchitis (IB) is an infectious viral disease of chickens. The effective protection of chickens against many different infectious bronchitis virus (IBV) variants is not achieved unless the circulating genotypes in the region are identified and the cross-protection of the potential of vaccines in use is assessed. Aims:In a monitoring program of IBVs, a new genotype ...

OBJECTIVE Research studies show that social media may be valuable tools in the disease surveillance toolkit used for improving public health professionals' ability to detect disease outbreaks faster than traditional methods and to enhance outbreak response. A social media work group, consisting of surveillance practitioners, academic researchers, and other subject matter experts convened by the...

Background: Developing methods to reconstruct transmission histories for viral outbreaks could provide critical information to support locating sources of disease transmission. Phylogenetic methods used to measure the degree of relatedness among sequenced viral samples have proven useful in identifying potential outbreak sources. The complex nature of infectious disease, however, makes it diffi...
