Early coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic effects on individual-level risk for healthcare-associated infections in hospitalized patients
Farthing, T. S., Jolley, A., Nickel, K. B., Hill, C., Stwalley, D., Reske, K. A., … Lanzas, C. (2023, June 29). INFECTION CONTROL AND HOSPITAL EPIDEMIOLOGY, Vol. 6.
TL;DR:
The results support the growing body of evidence indicating that the COVID-19 pandemic has increased hospital-onset MDRO infections.

Modeling impact of vaccination on COVID-19 dynamics in St. Louis
JOURNAL OF BIOLOGICAL DYNAMICS, 17(1).
author keywords: Modeling COVID-19 spread; St. Louis area; SafeGraph movement data; vaccination; differential equations
TL;DR:
This work investigates how human mobility, vaccination, and time-varying transmission rates influenced SARS-CoV-2 transmission in five counties in the St. Louis area and predicted the changes in disease spread under scenarios with increased vaccination coverage.

Assessing the efficacy of interventions to control indoor SARS-Cov-2 transmission: An agent-based modeling approach
EPIDEMICS, 37.
author keywords: Aerosol; Agent-based model; COVID-19; Droplet; Indoor transmission; SARS-CoV-2
MeSH headings : COVID-19; Humans; SARS-CoV-2; Systems Analysis
TL;DR:
It is found that preventing people from moving within the simulated room and efficacious mask usage appear to have the greatest effects on reducing infection risk, but multiple concurrent interventions are required to minimize the proportion of susceptible individuals infected.

Assessing the efficacy of interventions to control indoor SARS-Cov-2 transmission: an agent-based modeling approach
Farthing, T. S., & Lanzas, C. (2021, January 22). (Vol. 1). Vol. 1.
TL;DR:
It is found that imposing movement restrictions and efficacious mask usage appear to have the greatest effects on reducing infection risk, but multiple concurrent interventions are required to minimize the proportion of susceptible individuals infected.

Combining epidemiological and ecological methods to quantify social effects on Escherichia coli transmission
ROYAL SOCIETY OPEN SCIENCE, 8(10).
author keywords: contact network; disease ecology; E; coli; network epidemiology; real-time location; social network
TL;DR:
Transmission experiments can be combined with real-time location data collection and processing procedures to create an effective framework for quantifying sociobehavioural effects on microparasite transmission, and it is shown that observed effects were not consistent between similar populations.

When can we stop wearing masks? Agent-based modeling to identify when vaccine coverage makes nonpharmaceutical interventions for reducing SARS-CoV-2 infections redundant in indoor gatherings
Farthing, T. S., & Lanzas, C. (2021, April 27). (Vol. 4). Vol. 4.
TL;DR:
It is found that nonpharmaceutical interventions will often reduce secondary attack rates, especially during brief interactions, and therefore there is no definitive vaccination coverage level that makes nonpharaceutical interventions completely redundant, and the reduction effect on absolute SARS-CoV-2 infection risk conferred by nonphARMaceutical interventions is likely proportional to COVID-19 prevalence.

Accounting for space and uncertainty in real‐time location system‐derived contact networks
Ecology and Evolution.
author keywords: animal behavior; biotelemetry; contact network; global positioning system; movement ecology; R package; radio telemetry; real-time location
TL;DR:
Using the methods described herein and the associated R package, called contact, researchers can derive polygons from RTLS points and it is shown that these polygons are highly versatile for contact network creation and can be used to answer a wide variety of epidemiological, ethological, and sociological research questions.

Three Bermudagrass-suppression techniques have little effect on soil-nutrient availability and microbial communities 200 days after application
Applied Soil Ecology, 145.
author keywords: Cynodon dactylon; Invasive species; Grassland restoration; Glyphosate; Imazapyr; Microbial diversity
TL;DR:
The findings were generally consistent with previous research indicating herbicide use induces few-to-no long-term shifts in soil microbial communities, but the necessity for microbiological field-study designs to include multiple locations is highlighted.

Transmission on empirical dynamic contact networks is influenced by data processing decisions
EPIDEMICS, 26, 32–42.
author keywords: Dynamic contact data; Data processing; Entropy; Contact networks; Transmission dynamics; Disease transmission model
MeSH headings : Animals; Cattle; Cattle Diseases / epidemiology; Cattle Diseases / transmission; Epidemics / statistics & numerical data; Epidemics / veterinary; Models, Statistical
TL;DR:
It is found that changes made to information content by processing decisions translated to significant impacts to the transmission dynamics of disease models using the contact data, and that SpTh had the largest independent influence on information content.

Efficacy of Seven Invasive-Bermudagrass Removal Strategies in Three Texas Ecoregions
ECOLOGICAL RESTORATION, 36(4), 306–314.
author keywords: Cynodon dactylon; glyphosate; herbicide; imazapyr; vetch
TL;DR:
Results imply land managers may use C. dactylon-suppression methodologies standardized for the entire state of Texas and likely beyond, so pastures can be prepared for conversion to native rangeland and prairie ecosystems.
