The 5 stages of the epidemiological transition model are the first, second, third, fourth, and fifth epidemiological transition stages, the prime cause of mortality in each of these being: First transition stag

Random walkers on a two-dimensional square lattice are used to explore the spatio-temporal growth of an epidemic. We have found that a simple random-walk system generates non-trivial dynamics compared with traditional well-mixed models. Phase diagrams ch
The present study aims to assess age and gender-specific disease burden variations in India in 2020 and evaluate the epidemiological transition status nati
In the later stages of infection the cellular immune response wanes and a humoral response is activated in the form of B-cells and antibodies [17]. This response appears to be less effective in the controlling the infection and often increased shedding is observed at this stage of the ...
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a global disease; its evolution can be stratified into four epidemiological stages: Emergence, Acceleration in Incidence, Compounding Prevalence and Prevalence Equilibrium. In 2020, developing countries are in the Emergence stage, newly industrialized countries are in ...
(B) The SEICWH model. The six immunological stages are S: susceptible, E: exposed, I: clinically ill and infectious, C: temporarily protected by the cellular response, W: temporarily susceptible, H: protected on the long-term by the humoral response. The number of sub-compartments in each...
Older people, and those with comorbidities, are particularly vulnerable to severe infection. In China, early stages of the pandemic (April-May 2020), led to a case-fatality ratio of 18·5% among 70–79-year-olds, increasing to 32·1% in those ≥80 years old [23]. Average age of dea...

In Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), ischemic heart disease (IHD), stroke, and hypertensive heart disease are predominant contributors to CVDs mortality, with SSA in the early stages of epidemiological transition (Yuyun et al., 2020). Unlike in HICs, where IHD predominates, hypertensive heart disease,...
