We assess how presymptomatic infection affects predictability of infectious disease epidemics.We focus on whether or not a major outbreak (i.e.an epidemic that will go on to infect a large number of individuals) can be predicted reliably soon after initial cases of disease have appeared within SCREEN a population.For emerging epidemics, significant
Among 78 laboratory-confirmed Rabbits cases, we found two asymptomatic infections.One patient was discharged within 14 days after treatment.Another patient was discharged 25 days after treatment, and his RT-PCR test was still positive on the 15th day.We found that there may be virus carriers in the asymptomatic population with an epidemiological co
Background: Uncoupling protein 2 (UCP2) is critical in regulating energy metabolism.Due to the significant change in energy metabolism of myocardium upon pressure overload, we hypothesize that UCP2 could contribute to the etiology of cardiac hypertrophy.Methods: Adult male C57BL/6J mice were subjected to pressure overload by using transverse aortic
