Journal ArticleDOI
Recurrent outbreaks of measles, chickenpox and mumps i. seasonal variation in contact rates
Wayne P. London,James A. Yorke +1 more
TL;DR: Computer simulations show that the persistence of the biennial pattern of measles outbreaks implies that the vaccine is not being used uniformly throughout the population, for populations in which most members are vaccinated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Recurrent outbreaks of measles, chickenpox and mumps ii. systematic differences in contact rates and stochastic effects
James A. Yorke,Wayne P. London +1 more
TL;DR: The mean monthly contact rates for measles, chickenpox and mumps estimated from the monthly reported cases show systematic differences between the years with many cases and the yearswith few cases, and the clustering of cases within social groups is proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Handedness and alcoholism.
TL;DR: One hundred thirty-six alcoholic men and 48 alcoholic women admitted consecutively to an adult alcohol and substance abuse unit were studied in an attempt to replicate previous reports of an association between alcoholism and handedness.
Journal ArticleDOI
Path lengths and initial derivatives in arbitrary and Hessenberg compartmental systems
John Z. Hearon,Wayne P. London +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that if the matrix of an n -compartment system is upper Hessenberg (zero entries below the subdiagonal) and nonzero initial conditions exist in the first compartment only, then the solution for the n th compartment is β e 1 ∗ e 2 ∗…∗ e n where β is a constant, e i (t )=exp(λ it ), λ i is the i th root of the matrix and ∗ denotes convolution.
Journal ArticleDOI
Steady state kinetics of an enzyme reaction with one substrate and one modifier
TL;DR: It is shown that steady state kinetics are, in general, insufficient to specify the mechanism of a reaction, since different effects of a modifier can give identical steady state kinetic data.
