Understanding the impact of HIV on mpox transmission in the MSM population: A mathematical modeling study.

The recent mpox outbreak (in 2022-2023) has different clinical and epidemiological features compared with previous outbreaks of the disease. During this outbreak, sexual contact was believed to be the primary transmission route of the disease. In addition, the community of men having sex with men (MSM) was disproportionately affected by the outbreak.

Analysis of a fractional-order model for dengue transmission dynamics with quarantine and vaccination measures.

A comprehensive mathematical model is proposed to study two strains of dengue virus with saturated incidence rates and quarantine measures. Imperfect dengue vaccination is also assumed in the model. Existence, uniqueness and stability of the proposed model are proved using the results from fixed point and degree theory.

Analysis of a non-integer order mathematical model for double strains of dengue and COVID-19 co-circulation using an efficient finite-difference method.

An efficient finite difference approach is adopted to analyze the solution of a novel fractional-order mathematical model to control the co-circulation of double strains of dengue and COVID-19. The model is primarily built on a non-integer Caputo fractional derivative. The famous fixed-point theorem developed by Banach is employed to ensure that the solution of the formulated model exists and is ultimately unique.

Modeling SARS-CoV-2 and HBV co-dynamics with optimal control.

Clinical reports have shown that chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) patients co-infected with SARS-CoV-2 have a higher risk of complications with liver disease than patients without SARS-CoV-2. In this work, a co-dynamical model is designed for SARS-CoV-2 and HBV which incorporates incident infection with the dual diseases. Existence of boundary and co-existence endemic equilibria are proved.

The stability analysis of a co-circulation model for COVID-19, dengue, and zika with nonlinear incidence rates and vaccination strategies.

This paper aims to study the impacts of COVID-19 and dengue vaccinations on the dynamics of zika transmission by developing a vaccination model with the incorporation of saturated incidence rates. Analyses are performed to assess the qualitative behavior of the model. Carrying out bifurcation analysis of the model, it was concluded that co-infection, super-infection and also re-infection with same or different disease could trigger backward bifurcation.
