Mathematical model of mating probability and fertilized egg production in helminth parasites

Gonzalo Maximiliano Lopez, Juan Pablo Aparicio

In the modeling of parasite transmission dynamics, understanding the reproductive characteristics of these parasites is crucial. This paper presents a mathematical model that explo…

Modelling macroparasitic diseases dynamics

Gonzalo Maximiliano Lopez, Juan Pablo Aparicio

In this work we present a general framework for the modeling of the transmission dynamics of macroparasites which do not reproduce within the host like Ascaris lumbricoides, Trichu…

Meteorological indicators of dengue epidemics in non-endemic Northwest Argentina

Javier Armando Gutierrez, Karina Laneri, Juan Pablo Aparicio +1

In the last two decades dengue cases increased significantly throughout the world. In several regions dengue re-emerged, particularly in Latin America, where dengue cases not only…

General model of sex distribution, mating probability and egg production for macroparasites with polygamous mating system

Gonzalo Maximiliano Lopez, Juan Pablo Aparicio

The reproductive habits of helminths are important for the study of the dynamics of their transmission. For populations of parasites distributed by Poisson or negative binomial mod…

Simple models for macro-parasite distributions in hosts

Gonzalo Maximiliano Lopez, Juan Pablo Aparicio

Negative binomial distribution is the most used distribution to model macro-parasite burden in hosts. However reliable maximum likelihood parameter estimation from data is far from…

Ross-Macdonald Models: Which one should we use?

Mario Ignacio Simoy, Juan Pablo Aparicio

Ross-Macdonald models are the building blocks of most vector-borne disease models. Even for the same disease, different authors use different model formulations, but a study of the…
