Abstract Background The oriental rat flea (Xenopsylla cheopis), which infests several mammals, primarily rats (Rattus spp.), is the most notorious vector of human plague.In this study, we measured the genetic differentiation among populations of fleas from the Asian house rat (Rattus tanezumi) and the brown rat (R.norvegicus) using microsatellite m
Student success in Dynamics, a core subject in Mechanical Engineering courses, requires conceptual understanding of complex systems.Dynamics covers motion of particles and objects, and usually relies on 2 dimensional mpu63zm/a images and/or written descriptions to explain models and problems.This paper explores the value of visual representation of
Geodetic surveys suggest that ocean tides can modulate the motion of Antarctic ice streams, even at stations many tens of kilometers inland from the grounding line.These surveys suggest that ocean tidal stresses can perturb ice stream motion at distances about an order of magnitude farther inland than tidal flexure of the ice stream alone.Recent mo
Abstract Background As healthcare systems rapidly become more complex, healthcare leaders are navigating expanding role scopes and increasingly varied tasks to ensure the provision of high-quality patient care.Despite a range of leadership theories, models, and training curricula to guide leadership development, the roles and competencies required
In this paper, a mathematical model of the COVID-19 pandemic with lockdown that provides a more accurate representation of the infection rate has been analyzed.In this model, the total population is divided into six compartments: the susceptible class, lockdown class, exposed class, asymptomatic infected class, symptomatic infected class, and recov
