Taking the "Wild" out of Wildfires - Harnessing Data to Predict, Prevent, and Prepare for the Future Open
Background Climate change and human activity are intensifying wildfires, endangering health, ecosystems, and infrastructure, especially in wild-urban interface regions. This study examined the impact of informal communication, public perce…

Pre-or co-SARS-CoV-2 Infections Significantly Increase Severe Dengue Virus Disease Criteria: Implications for Clinicians Open
Few studies have investigated whether SARS-CoV-2 infections increase the incidence of dengue haemorrhagic fever/shock syndrome (DHF/DSS) and/or severe dengue (SD) in dengue virus (DENV)-infected patients. This study was performed on a site…

Direct and indirect effects of age on dengue severity: The mediating role of secondary infection Open
Severe dengue occurrence has been attributed to increasing age and different dengue virus (DENV) serotypes that cause secondary infections and immune-enhancing phenomena. Therefore, we examined if the effect of age on dengue severity was m…

A Maximum Entropy Model of the Distribution of Dengue Serotype in Mexico Open
Pathogen strain diversity is an important driver of the trajectory of epidemics. The role of bioclimatic factors on the spatial distribution of dengue virus (DENV) serotypes has, however, not been previously studied. Hence, we developed mu…

Mediation of secondary infection in the causal pathway of age and severe dengue Open
This dataset, codebook and code were used in a mediation analysis to describe how secondary infection mediated the effect of age on severe dengue.

Country-Level Governance Indicators as Predictors of COVID-19 Morbidity, Mortality, and Vaccination Coverage: An Exploratory Global Analysis Open
As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to affect all countries across the globe, this study seeks to investigate the relationship between nations’ governance, COVID-19 national data, and nation-level COVID-19 vaccination coverage. National-lev…

Determining Perceived Self-Efficacy for Preventing Dengue Fever in Two Climatically Diverse Mexican States: A Cross-Sectional Study Open
Knowledge of dengue fever and perceived self-efficacy toward dengue prevention does not necessarily translate to the uptake of mosquito control measures. Understanding how these factors (knowledge and self-efficacy) influence mosquito cont…
