Abstract: Increased disease susceptibility during early life has been linked to immune immaturity, regulatory T‐cell/TH2 immune biasing and hyporesponsiveness. The contribution of myeloid derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) remains uninvestigated. Here, we assessed peripheral MDSC in HIV‐infected… read more here.

Abstract: False negative rates of severe acute respiratory coronavirus 2 diagnostic tests, together with selection bias due to prioritized testing can result in inaccurate modeling of COVID‐19 transmission dynamics based on reported “case” counts. We propose… read more here.

Abstract: Background Children are particularly susceptible to tuberculosis. However, most children exposed to Mycobacterium tuberculosis are able to control the pathogen without evidence of infection. Correlates of human protective immunity against tuberculosis infection are lacking, and… read more here.

Abstract: In this paper we study the critical properties of the nonequilibrium phase transition of the susceptible-exposed-infected (SEI) model under the effects of long-range correlated time-varying environmental noise on the Bethe lattice. We show that temporal… read more here.
