HLA targeting efficiency correlates with human T-cell response magnitude and with mortality from influenza A infection.

TL;DR: This paper found that HLA targeting efficiency scores significantly correlated with IFN-γ enzyme-linked immunosorbent spot responses (P = 0.042, multiple regression) and the carriage frequencies of the alleles with the lowest targeting efficiencies, A*24, were associated with pH 1N1 mortality.
Journal ArticleDOI

Epidemiologic effects of varicella vaccination.

TL;DR: Modeling results suggest that routine immunization of preschool children would greatly reduce the number of primary varicella cases, whereas the shift in age distribution of cases would not result in increased overall morbidity as measured by number of hospitalizations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Estimating within-school contact networks to understand influenza transmission

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed a detailed statistical model to estimate the social contact network within a high school using friendship network data and a survey of contact behavior, including classroom structure, longer durations of contacts to friends than non-friends and more frequent contacts with friends, based on reports in the contact survey.
