West Nile Virus (WNV) has recently emerged as a major public health concern in Europe; its recent expansion also coincided with some remarkable socio-economic and environmental changes, including an economic crisis of the warmest temperatures on record. Here we empirically investigate drivers this phenomenon at European wide scale by constructing analyzing unique spatial-temporal data-set, that includes data climate, land-use, economy, government spending related sectors. Drivers risk...
Abstract Background This study examines the impact of climate, socio-economic and demographic factors on incidence dengue in regions United States Mexico. We select shown to predict at a local level test whether association can be generalized regional or state level. In addition, we assess how different indicators perform compared per capita gross domestic product (GDP), an indicator that is commonly used future distribution dengue. Methods A unique spatial-temporal dataset was created by...
Abstract Arthropods play a dominant role in natural and human-modified terrestrial ecosystem dynamics. Spatially-explicit arthropod population time-series data are crucial for statistical or mathematical models of these dynamics assessment their veterinary, medical, agricultural, ecological impacts. Such have been collected world-wide over century, but remain scattered largely inaccessible. In particular, with the ever-present growing threat pests vectors infectious diseases, there numerous...
After a request from the European Commission, EFSA's Panel on Animal Health and Welfare summarised main characteristics of 36 vector-borne diseases (VBDs) in web-based storymaps.The risk introduction EU through movement livestock or pets was assessed for each VBDs individually, using semiquantitative Method to INTegrate all relevant RISK aspects (MINTRISK model), which further modified scale into EFSA-VBD-RISK-model.Only eight VBD-agents had an overall rate (being combination entry, vector...
The relation between age at registration, socioeconomic status, and survival from cervical cancer for women resident in Sheffield was examined using the 556 such cases registered with Trent Cancer Registry 1971 to 1984. address electoral ward registration were used categorize status of 99% women. Five year all 49%, increasing having a predictable deleterious effect. Socioeconomic seemed have little effect on survival, especially when covarying had been taken into account. It is hypothesised...

Many questions remain unanswered about how SARS-CoV-2 transmission is influenced by aspects of the economy, environment, and health. A better understanding these factors interact can help us to design early health prevention control strategies, develop predictive models for public risk management SARS-CoV-2. This study examines associations between COVID-19 epidemic growth macro-level determinants such as demographic, socio-economic, climate factors, during first wave outbreaks in United...
Abstract Background : Dengue is one of the important vector-borne diseases in world today; it infects tens millions people each year and has been on rise since 1950s. In this study, we develop a set indicators that help us examine impact socio-economic demographic factors occurrence dengue regions United States Mexico. Methods We assess relationship between humans, climate (temperature minimum quarterly rainfall), (such as household income, regional rates education, housing overcrowding,...
