Abstract:
The percolation paradigm is widely used in spatially explicit epidemic models where disease spreads between neighbouring hosts. It has been successful in identifying epidemic thresholds for invasion, separating non-invasive regimes, where the disease never invades the system, from invasive regimes where the probability of invasion is positive. However, its power is mainly limited to homogeneous systems. When heterogeneity (environmental stochasticity) is introduced, the value of the epidemic threshold is, in general, not predictable without numerical simulations. Here, we analyse the role of h

Abstract:
Abstract Oral potentially malignant diseases (OPMDs) are a group of oral mucosal lesions that have a higher chance of turning into cancer. They show up in different ways, have different causes, and look differently on a microscopic level. To date, there are no clinical or histological factors that could predict the OPMDs’ malignant transformation to oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), except for previous OSCC and WHO classification. Early diagnosis appears to be essential in these lesions in order to identify the risk of malignant progression and treat them accordingly. The standard treatment for an oral precancerous lesion is surgical resection, which aims to remove all the affected epithelium. Despite the complete surgical removal of the lesion, there is a high probability of recurrence and the development of malignant transformation or a second tumor, based on the theory of “field of cancerization”. Researchers have developed the concept of chemoprevention, which involves using a systemic agent to halt the carcinogenesis process, in an attempt to minimize the probability of recurrence. Researchers have conducted several unsuccessful studies analysing retinoic acid, beta-carotene, vitamin C, the OX-containing oral rinse, and erlotinib. Following these negative results, we conducted a deeper analysis to investigate the peri- and intratumoral immune activity. Studies have demonstrated that changes in the number of tumor infiltrating CD8+, CD3+, and Th1 cells can influence the malignant transformation of OPMDs. Researchers also demonstrated high expression of PD-L1 in those premalignant lesions that progress to cancer. So, an imbalance in the immunosuppressive microenvironment could be the key to turning a premalignant cell into a cancerous cell, which suggests that immunotherapy could be useful as a drug for prevention. Glenn J. Hanna et al. conducted the first study to investigate the effectiveness of immune checkpoint inhibitors in this setting, treating 33 patients with proliferative verrucous leukoplakia with 4 cycles of nivolumab. They showed different levels of lesion regression depending on the size and degree of dysplasia in response to treatment. However, 27% of patients who received nivolumab went on to develop invasive oral cancer, with a 73% cancer-free survival rate after 2 years. Currently, another phase II study, called “IMPEDE trial”, is ongoing that aims to analyse the role of avelumab against malignant transformation in patients with oral premalignant lesions which have any grade of dysplasia and are positive for loss of heterozygosity (LOH). Although these early results on the use of immune checkpoint inhibitors to reverse the malignant transformation of OPDMs are promising, there are many open questions still to be clarified. Fundamental is the need to have randomized trials with long-term outcomes.

Abstract:
This chapter explores the politics of assessing uncertainty in international affairs, particularly the notion that clear probability assessments expose foreign policy analysts to excessive criticism. Although this idea is widespread among scholars and practitioners of international relations, there is just as much reason to believe that the opposite is true. If foreign policy discourse is truly as polarized as the conventional wisdom suggests, then leaving key judgments vague could actually increase blame exposure by giving critics the opportunity to make ambiguous statements seem more mistaken than they really are. The chapter supports this claim by combing experimental evidence in a historical review of perceived intelligence failures such as the Bay of Pigs invasion, the Yom Kippur War, and assessments of Iraq’s weapons of mass destruction programs.

Abstract:
Abstract The 1994 book The Intercalary August 1995, a fictional account of a surgical-strike invasion of Taiwan by China, sold a record 200,000 copies between August and December 1994.The huge sales volume reflected a growing sense of insecurity among Taiwan’s residents, despite a visitor’s observation months earlier that the two sides had “rarely been more peaceful.”In the latter half of 1994, China staged its largest military exercise in years and Taiwan followed suit as if in response. Concurrently, Taiwanese emigration reached a six-year peak, which many perceived to have resulted from residents fleeing in fear. By early 1995, some U.S. officials admitted publicly that one had to take seriously the threat that “the mainland could invade” Taiwan. This statement represents a shifting post-Cold War perception from marginalizing China’s attack on Taiwan almost as a non-issue to reckoning such conflict as a possibility bordering on probability. Beginning in late July 1995, China reinforced this shift by testing missiles and artilleries in waters with unprecedented proximity to Taiwan, imposing in effect a series of temporary blockades on the island.

Brief descriptions of other modeling approaches to these questions, some of which have seen application outside of research, are discussed followed by ideas for the application of TrapGrid, including a way to determine trap attraction (the parameter λ in the model) and how to compare alternative trap layouts on a landscape scale. Finally, in the practicum, a working example was given comparing two alternative trap layouts in a 1 km2 area via quantification of capture probability instantaneously and over 30d.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract Large-scale range shifts towards higher latitudes change have occurred in many (but not all) studied species, yet spatial changes may be more complex. Because insects are small organisms, fine-scale environmental heterogeneity (topography, habitats, land use and microclimate) may be more relevant to understand their response to climate change. In addition, insects differ in their ecophysiology and life-history traits, preventing an overall forecast of insects’ responses to climate change. Species range shifts are often not synchronized, creating new opportunities for interactions (facilitation or competition) within new communities. Moreover, climate change may affect the introduction probability, establishment likelihood and dispersal dynamics of introduced species. A variety of models have been developed to predict future insect distributions, ranging from simple species distribution models to more complex mechanistic models integrating species demography, dispersal and biotic interactions. Combining these predictions with experimental data will improve our understanding of species distributions under climate change.

Full text
Abstract:
Since the widespread adoption of mammographic screening in the 1980&amp;apos;s there has been a significant increase in the detection and biopsy of both benign and malignant microcalcifications. Though current practice standards recommend that the positive predictive value (PPV) of breast biopsy should be in the range of 25-40%, there exists significant variability in practice. Microcalcifications, if malignant, can represent either a non-invasive or an invasive form of breast cancer. The distinction is critical because distinct surgical therapies are indicated. Unfortunately, this information is not always available at the time of surgery due to limited sampling at image-guided biopsy. For these reasons we conducted an experiment to determine whether a previously created Bayesian network for mammography could predict the significance of microcalcifications. In this experiment we aim to test whether the system is able to perform two related tasks in this domain: 1) to predict the likelihood that microcalcifications are malignant and 2) to predict the likelihood that a malignancy is invasive to help guide the choice of appropriate surgical therapy.

Modern non-invasive diagnostic strategies for pulmonary embolism rely on the sequential use of clinical probability assessment, D-dimer measurement, and thoracic imaging tests. Planar ventilation/perfusion scintigraphy was the cornerstone test for the diagnosis of pulmonary embolism for more than two decades and has now been replaced by computed tomographic pulmonary angiography (CTPA). Diagnostic strategies using CTPA are very safe to rule out pulmonary embolism and have been well validated in large prospective management outcome studies. Venous compression ultrasonography is the cornerstone test to diagnose deep vein thrombosis but is not mandatory for the diagnosis of pulmonary embolism when using multidetector CTPA.

The voter process is a classic stochastic process that models the invasion of a mutant trait A (e.g., a new opinion, belief, legend, genetic mutation, magnetic spin) in a population of agents (e.g., people, genes, particles) who share a resident trait B, spread over the nodes of a graph. An agent may adopt the trait of one of its neighbors at any time, while the invasion bias r quantifies the stochastic preference towards (r&gt;1) or against (r&lt;1) adopting A over B. Success is measured in terms of the fixation probability, i.e., the probability that eventually all agents have adopted the mu

Abstract:
The article describes crayfish species diversity in the territory of the Republic of Belarus, in particular invasive species - the marble crayfish (PROCAMBARUS FALLAX) and the method of its reproduction. Currently, this species is found in many European countries, but there is a serious probability of its spread in the territory of the Republic of Belarus. Many crayfish species listed in the Red Book of the Republic of Belarus may be endangered in case of an invasion of marble crayfish in the water bodies of Belarus.

Abstract:
The Moran process is a classic stochastic process that models the rise and takeover of novel traits in network-structured populations. In biological terms, a set of mutants, each with fitness m ∈ (0, ∞) invade a population of residents with fitness 1. Each agent reproduces at a rate proportional to its fitness and each offspring replaces a random network neighbor. The process ends when the mutants either fixate (take over the whole population) or go extinct. The fixation probability measures the success of the invasion. To account for environmental heterogeneity, we study a generalization of t

Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate vacuum-assisted excision (VAE) for percutaneous treatment of breast cancers. Methods: This is a retrospective analysis of 1061 vacuum-assisted biopsies (VAB) and VAE for the diagnostic purpose of suspicious breast lesions in a breast unit between April 13, 2017 and November 28, 2020. In total, 116 cases with complete data from VAB/VAE and surgical excision were evaluated. Excision following VAB/VAE was defined as complete resection (CR) if there was no residual tumor, minimal residual disease (MRD) if residual tumor was ≤3 mm, gross residual dis

Abstract:
Abstract With the gradual progress of drilling to the deep layer, the formation conditions become more and more complex. The safe density window of drilling fluid is narrow, and well kick and overflow occur frequently. Aiming at this problem, this paper proposes an overflow evaluation index - overflow formation energy. From the perspective of energy analysis, overflow is regarded as the process of formation fluid doing work on the wellbore, and the power of overflow work can reflect the strength of overflow, so this power is defined as the overflow formation energy.

Abstract:
Male breast cancer (MBC) is an uncommon disease representing only 1% of the total cases. This low incident rate could be due to the low amount of breast tissue and the hormonal differences between men and women. The Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Result (SEER) program reported that the incidence rate of breast cancer was 1.1 per 100,000 men in the mid-1970s and raised to 1.44 per 100,000 men by 2010. There are a lot of characteristics that are common to male and female breast carcinomas, especially given the fact that a lot of the factors that influence malignant changes are similar, but t

Abstract:
Introduction: Phyllodes tumor (PT) of the breast is an infrequent neoplasm, which corresponds to less than 0.5% of the breast tumors. The age group at the greatest risk in women is between 35 and 55 years of age. They are classified as benign (60%–75%), borderline (15%–20%), and malignant (10%–20%). In their less aggressive form, they behave like benign fibroadenomas (FA), however, with a tendency to recur locally after excision without wide margins. In contrast, they may present a metastatic component in its most aggressive form. In general, they are referred to as voluminous tumors, larger t

Abstract:
Brucella Mutagenesis (TAMU) The working hypothesis for this study was that survival of Brucella vaccines was directly related to their persistence in the host. This premise is based on previously published work detailing the survival of the currently employed vaccine strains S19 and Rev 1. The approach employed signature-tagged mutagenesis to construct mutants interrupted in individual genes, and the mouse model to identify mutants with attenuated virulence/survival. Intracellular survival in macrophages is the key to both reproductive disease in ruminants and reticuloendothelial disease obser
