  1. 1. Spatial distribution and thermo-climatic effects on the abundance of non-toxigenic Vibrio cholerae in Russia

    Magister-uppsats, Södertörns högskola/Institutionen för naturvetenskap, miljö och teknik

    Författare :Vadim Leonov; [2023]
    Nyckelord :V. cholerae; spatial analysis; climate change; heat wave; SatScan; vibriosis; Russia;

    Sammanfattning : The identification of climate temperature-sensitive pathogens and infectious diseases is essential in addressing health risks resulting from global warming. Such research is especially crucial in regions where climate change may have a more significant impact like Russia. Recent studies have reasoned that the abundance of V. LÄS MER

  3. 2. The Influence of Natural Radon Occurrence on the Severity of the COVID-19 Pandemic in Germany: a Spatial Analysis

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Författare :Ignatius Gabriel Aloysius Maria Perera; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Geography; GIS; Epidemiology; Germany; SARS-CoV-2; COVID-19; Radon; Spatial regression; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : The exposure to naturally occurring, radioactive noble gas radon is known to cause permanent damage in lung tissue. Lung diseases and prior radiation of lung tissue have been identified as contributing to a severe progression of COVID-19. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Beaver wetland and lake effects on Francisella tularensis in Swedish landscapes and hares

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Wildlife, Fish and Environmental Studies

    Författare :Lovisa Pihlgren Hökby; [2022]
    Nyckelord :tularemia; francisella tularensis hola; beavers; hares; wetland restauration; epizoology; vector borne diseases;

    Sammanfattning : The zoonotic disease tularemia is caused by the bacterium Francisella tularensis that infects both humans and wildlife in Sweden. Associations between outbreaks of tularemia and lakes and rivers have earlier been observed, and semi-aquatic rodents and mosquitoes are believed to be key species groups in the epidemiological cycle of the disease.

  5. 4. Livestock-MRSA in Danish Pig Farms

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Författare :Mona Tykesson Klubien; [2021]
    Nyckelord :GIS; epidemiology; MRSA; Denmark; pig production; logistic regression; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : This study looks at factors contributing to LA-MRSA prevalence in Danish pig farms. LA-MRSA is a pathogenic bacteria that are resistant to methicillin (penicillin) and tetracycline antibiotics found in livestock such as pigs, poultry and cattle. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Spatiotemporal Fidelity of a Metapopulational Model Evaluated on the COVID-19 Pandemic in Sweden

    Kandidat-uppsats, Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för system- och rymdteknik

    Författare :Filip Skogh; [2021]
    Nyckelord :Epidemiology; COVID-19; Sweden; Metapopulation; SEIR; Model;

    Sammanfattning : A modified SEIR compartmental model is constructed for COVID-19 in a metapopulational setting with fine-scaled population data. The model is stochastically simulated with GLEAMviz that provides realistic short and long distance mobility based on real-world data. LÄS MER
