Interestingly, only within the discipline of Plant Pathology investigators were able to develop a Composite Aggressiveness Index (CAI) relative to Phytophora infestans activity on potatoes. This very index was used as a template to develop the formula of DAI (Disease Aggressiveness Index). Taking together all the above evaluations and results, it can be inferred that DAI (Disease Aggressiveness Index) could become a very useful tool to mathematically compare diseases and thus set economical prioritization strategies. Nevertheless, such an index could be very useful and supportive to act as a correction coefficient for predictive algorithms..","PeriodicalId":434648,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Biostatistics & Biometric Applications","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-07-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128400151","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The paper deals with events, belonging to various fields of knowledge: psychology, general system theory, sociology, cultural studies, etc. That is why we resorted to the help of rather specific approach (not widespread in each of these fields): the so-called ‘systemic-informational analysis.’ It eliminates the peculiarities inherent to the fields mentioned, permitting to embrace them – and to enter the world of ‘new mental reality.’ (Earlier, this approach demonstrated its effectiveness when integrating various spheres: linguistics, ethics, general history, international relations, psychology, art studies, and so forth; see, e.g., [1-7].

In other words, probability describes the possibility of an event to occur given a series of circumstances (or under a series of pre-event factors).

Ebola Virus Diseases which is also known as Ebola hemorrhagic fever, (or EHF), is a viral hemorrhagic fever of humans and other primates caused by Ebola viruses [1]. Ebola is a rare and deadly disease caused by infection with one of the Ebola virus species. According to the WHO [2], Ebola is caused by infection with a virus of the family Filoviridae. The disease, which the World Health Organisation declared an outbreak on 23rd March 2014, first occurred in Yambuku, Democratic Republic of Congo and surrounding areas in 1976. The disease was spread close personal contact and by use of contaminated needles and syringes in hospitals/clinics [3]. This outbreak was the first recognition of the disease. Since then, there have been many outbreaks with the latest in Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone. Now the Ebola Virus Disease which began in December 2013 and killed a two-year-old boy in Guinea, was the beginning of an outbreak in that year and killed over 5000 people in a year, leaving hundreds of children orphaned and affecting thousands more [3].","PeriodicalId":434648,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Biostatistics & Biometric Applications","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-05-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128248555","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The toxins are named after Kiyoshi Shiga, who first described the bacterial origin of dysentery caused by Shigella dysenteriae. Shiga–like toxin (SLT) is a historical term for similar or identical toxins produced by Escherichia coli [1-3]. The most common sources for Shiga toxin are the bacteria S. Dysenteriae and some serotypes of Escherichia coli (STEC), which includes serotypes O157:H7, and O104:H4. Parameters such as FT–IR and Raman vibrational wavelengths and intensities for single crystal Shiga Toxin and Shiga–Like Toxin (SLT) are calculated using density functional theory and were compared with empirical results. The investigation about vibrational spectrum of cycle dimers in crystal with carboxyl groups from each molecule of acid was shown that it leads to create Hydrogen bounds for adjacent molecules. The current study aimed to investigate the possibility of simulating the empirical values. Analysis of vibrational spectrum of Shiga Toxin and Shiga–Like Toxin (SLT) is performed based on theoretical simulation and FT–IR empirical spectrum and Raman empirical spectrum using density functional theory in levels of F/6– 31G*, HF/6–31++G**, MP2/6–31G, MP2/6– 31++G**, BLYP/6–31G, BLYP/6–31++G**, B3LYP/6–31G and B3LYP6–31–HEG**. Vibration modes of methylene, carboxyl acid and phenyl cycle are separately investigated. The obtained values confirm high accuracy and validity of results obtained from calculations.","PeriodicalId":434648,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Biostatistics & Biometric Applications","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-05-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127202032","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
