Heterogeneities in contact networks have a major effect in determining whether a pathogen can become epidemic or persist at endemic levels. Epidemic models that determine which …

Near-theoretical fracture strengths in native and oxidized silicon nanowires.

Nanotechnology

DelRio FW, White RM, Krylyuk S, Davydov AV, Friedman LH, Cook RF.
PMID: 27325151
Nanotechnology. 2016 Aug 05;27(31):31LT02. doi: 10.1088/0957-4484/27/31/31LT02. Epub 2016 Jun 21.

In this letter, fracture strengths σ f of native and oxidized silicon nanowires (SiNWs) were determined via atomic force microscopy bending experiments and nonlinear finite element analysis. In the native SiNWs, σ f in the Si was comparable to...

Understanding the Lewis Acidity of Co(II) Sites on a Silica Surface.

Inorganic chemistry

Estes DP, Cook AK, Lam E, Wong L, Copéret C.
PMID: 28671845
Inorg Chem. 2017 Jul 17;56(14):7731-7736. doi: 10.1021/acs.inorgchem.7b00443. Epub 2017 Jul 03.

Heterogeneous catalysts consisting of isolated transition-metal sites dispersed on the surface of metal oxide supports are commonly used in the chemical industry. Often their reactivity relies on the Lewis acidity of the active sites on the surface of the...

Forecasting the burden of type 2 diabetes in Singapore using a demographic epidemiological model of Singapore.

OBJECTIVE: Singapore is a microcosm of Asia as a whole, and its rapidly ageing, increasingly sedentary population heralds the chronic health problems other Asian countries are starting to face and will likely face in the decades ahead. Forecasting the...

A Synthesis of Current Surveillance Planning Methods for the Sequential Monitoring of Drug and Vaccine Adverse Effects Using Electronic Health Care Data.

EGEMS (Washington, DC)

Nelson JC, Wellman R, Yu O, Cook AJ, Maro JC, Ouellet-Hellstrom R, Boudreau D, Floyd JS, Heckbert SR, Pinheiro S, Reichman M, Shoaibi A.
PMID: 27713904
EGEMS (Wash DC). 2016 Sep 06;4(1):1219. doi: 10.13063/2327-9214.1219. eCollection 2016.

INTRODUCTION: The large-scale assembly of electronic health care data combined with the use of sequential monitoring has made proactive postmarket drug- and vaccine-safety surveillance possible. Although sequential designs have been used extensively in randomized trials, less attention has been...

Developing New Antimicrobial Therapies: Are Synergistic Combinations of Plant Extracts/Compounds with Conventional Antibiotics the Solution?.

Pharmacognosy reviews

Cheesman MJ, Ilanko A, Blonk B, Cock IE.
PMID: 28989242
Pharmacogn Rev. 2017 Jul-Dec;11(22):57-72. doi: 10.4103/phrev.phrev_21_17.

The discovery of penicillin nearly 90 years ago revolutionized the treatment of bacterial disease. Since that time, numerous other antibiotics have been discovered from bacteria and fungi, or developed by chemical synthesis and have become effective chemotherapeutic options. However,...

Time to Empower Release of Insects Carrying a Dominant Lethal and Wolbachia Against Zika.

Open forum infectious diseases

Dickens BL, Yang J, Cook AR, Carrasco LR.
PMID: 27419175
Open Forum Infect Dis. 2016 May 19;3(2):ofw103. doi: 10.1093/ofid/ofw103. eCollection 2016 Apr.

RIDL (release of insects with dominant lethality) and Wolbachia are 2 potentially powerful tools in the fight against Zika, but their technological advancement is being hampered by policy barriers. In this study, we discuss what could be done to...

Disease Progression Modeling: Key Concepts and Recent Developments.

Current pharmacology reports

Cook SF, Bies RR.
PMID: 28936389
Curr Pharmacol Rep. 2016 Oct;2(5):221-230. doi: 10.1007/s40495-016-0066-x. Epub 2016 Aug 15.

Disease modeling involves the use of mathematical functions to describe quantitatively the time course of disease progression. In order to characterize the natural progression of disease, these models generally incorporate longitudinal data for some biomarker(s) of disease severity or...

Beat Keeping in a Sea Lion As Coupled Oscillation: Implications for Comparative Understanding of Human Rhythm.

Frontiers in neuroscience

Rouse AA, Cook PF, Large EW, Reichmuth C.
PMID: 27375418
Front Neurosci. 2016 Jun 03;10:257. doi: 10.3389/fnins.2016.00257. eCollection 2016.

Human capacity for entraining movement to external rhythms-i.e., beat keeping-is ubiquitous, but its evolutionary history and neural underpinnings remain a mystery. Recent findings of entrainment to simple and complex rhythms in non-human animals pave the way for a novel...

The evolution of a doctor of nursing practice capstone process: programmatic revisions to improve the quality of student projects.
