Abstract spolTools is a collection of online programs designed to manipulate and analyze spoligotype datasets the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex. These tools are integrated into repository currently containing 1179 spoligotypes 6278 isolates across 30 datasets. Users can search this database export for external use or pass on tools. include computation basic population genetic quantities, visualization clusters patterns based an estimated evolutionary history procedure predict emerging...
Molecular typing methods are commonly used to study genetic relationships among bacterial isolates. Many of these have become standardized and produce portable data. A popular approach for analyzing such data is construct graphs, including phylogenies. Inferences from graph representations assist in understanding the patterns transmission pathogens, basing constructs on biological models evolution molecular marker helps make inferences. Spoligotyping a widely method genotyping isolates...
Variable numbers of tandem repeats (VNTR) typing is widely used for studying the bacterial cause tuberculosis. Knowledge rate mutation VNTR loci facilitates study evolution and epidemiology Mycobacterium Previous studies have applied population genetic models to estimate rate, leading estimates varying from around per locus year. Resolving this issue using more detailed statistical methods would lead improved inference in molecular Here, we use a model-based approach that incorporates two...
Following the introduction of rotavirus immunization in 2006 United States, there were substantial declines domestic disease burden. In this study, we assess value for money achieved by program decade following vaccine introduction.
This study determines an optimal strategy for scaling up ART in Vietnam by examining three initiation thresholds [350 cells/mm3, 500 and treat all people living with HIV (PLHIV) regardless of CD4 cell counts] treatment commencement rates among treatment-eligible PLHIV ranging from 5% to 100% within 12 months diagnosis. Incremental cost-effectiveness ratios (ICERs) were calculated using a Markov model, based on data cohort 3449 patients who initiated between January 1, 2005 December 31, 2009...
