Within-Host Bayesian Joint Modeling of Longitudinal and Time-to-Event Data of Leishmania Infection

F. M. Pabon-Rodriguez, G. D. Brown, B. M. Scorza, C. A. Petersen

This paper develops a Bayesian joint model of longitudinal and time-to-event data for Leishmania infection in dogs, showing how immune factors and parasite load influence disease progression and mortality.

Bayesian Multivariate Longitudinal Model for Immune Responses to Leishmania: a tick-borne Co-Infection Study

F. M. Pabon-Rodriguez, G. D. Brown, B. M. Scorza, C. A. Petersen

This paper develops a Bayesian state-space model to analyze immune responses to Leishmania infections in dogs, finding that co-infection and prior pathogen load influence disease progression.

Leishmania infantum xenodiagnosis from vertically infected dogs reveals significant skin tropism

B. M. Scorza, K. G. Mahachi, A. Cox, A. J. Toepp, A. Leal Lima, A. Kumar Kushwaha, P. Kelly, C. Menenses, G. Wilson, K. Gibson-Corley, L. Bartholomay, S. Kamhawi, C. A. Petersen

This study shows vertically infected dogs transmit Leishmania infantum to sand flies more effectively when they have moderate disease, with higher skin parasite loads correlating strongly with sand fly infection.
