This paper presents a sub-genomic Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) replication model which incorporates the rate of influx of HCV plus-strand RNA into Huh-7 cell and monitored its effects. The schematic diagram of HCV replication has been simplified. The model exhibits three equilibrium, namely: trivial equilibrium, healthy equilibrium and endemic equilibrium. Stability analysis of the model shows that the healthy equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable under certain condition. It is shown that increase in the rate of influx, increases the steady state level of total plus strand RNA, synthesized plus strand RNA, replicated plus strand RNA and NS5B in the system. Sensitivity and uncertainty analyses of the model (using the \textit{basic replication number} (${\mathcal R}_0$) as the response function) show that the top three PRCC-ranked parameters are the rate of influx, $k_0$ of HCV plus-strand RNA, the rate of production of translation complex ($T_c$) and the rate of degradation, $\mu_{p}^{cyt}$, of plus-strand RNA $R_{P}^{cyt}$. Furthermore, the distribution of $\mathcal{R}_0$ is between $[0.9999,\, 1.0008]$ with a mean of $\mathcal{R}_{0}=1.0003$.}}

Theoretical Results

Of concern is the global dynamics of a two-species Holling-II amensalism system with nonlinear growth rate. The existence and stability of trivial equilibrium, semi-trivial equilibria, interior equilibria and infinite singularity are studied. Under different parameters, there exist two stable equilibria which means that this model is not always globally asymptotically stable. Together with the existence of all possible equilibria and their stability, saddle connection and close orbits, we derive some conditions for transcritical bifurcation and saddle-node bifurcation. Furthermore, the global dynamics of the model is performed. Next, we incorporate Allee effect on the first species and offer a new analysis of equilibria and bifurcation discussion of the model. Finally, several numerical examples are performed to verify our theoretical results.

Theoretical Results

In this article, a Susceptible – Vaccinated – Infected – Recovered (SVIR) model is formulated and analysed using comprehensive mathematical techniques. The vaccination class is primarily considered as means of controlling the disease spread. The basic reproduction number (Ro) of the model is obtained, where it was shown that if Ro<1, at the model equilibrium solutions when infection is present and absent, the infection- free equilibrium is both locally and globally asymptotically stable. Also, if Ro>1, the endemic equilibrium solution is locally asymptotically stable. Furthermore, the analytical solution of the model was carried out using the Differential Transform Method (DTM) and Runge - Kutta fourth-order method. Numerical simulations were carried out to validate the theoretical results.

Abstract A simple deterministic epidemic model for tuberculosis is addressed in this article. The impact of effective contact rate, treatment rate, and incomplete treatment versus efficient treatment is investigated. We also analyze the asymptotic behavior, spread, and possible eradication of the TB infection. It is observed that the disease transmission dynamics is characterized by the basic reproduction ratio $\Re _{0}$ ℜ 0 ; if $\Re _{0}<1$ ℜ 0 < 1 , there is only a disease-free equilibrium which is both locally and globally asymptotically stable. Moreover, for $\Re _{0}>1$ ℜ 0 > 1 , a unique positive endemic equilibrium exists which is globally asymptotically stable. The global stability of the equilibria is shown via Lyapunov function. It is also obtained that incomplete treatment of TB causes increase in disease infection while efficient treatment results in a reduction in TB. Finally, for the estimated parameters, some numerical simulations are performed to verify the analytical results. These numerical results indicate that decrease in the effective contact rate λ and increase in the treatment rate γ play a significant role in the TB infection control.

We study a delayed SIR epidemic model and get the threshold value which determines the global dynamics and outcome of the disease. First of all, for anyτ, we show that the disease-free equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable; whenR0<1, the disease will die out. Directly afterwards, we prove that the endemic equilibrium is locally asymptotically stable for anyτ=0; whenR0>1, the disease will persist. However, for anyτ≠0, the existence conditions for Hopf bifurcations at the endemic equilibrium are obtained. Besides, we compare the delayed SIR epidemic model with nonlinear incidence rate to the one with bilinear incidence rate. At last, numerical simulations are performed to illustrate and verify the conclusions.

This paper studies a modified human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection differential equation model with a saturated infection rate. It is proved that if the basic virus reproductive numberR0of the model is less than one, then the infection-free equilibrium point of the model is globally asymptotically stable; ifR0of the model is more than one, then the endemic infection equilibrium point of the model is globally asymptotically stable. Based on the clinical data from HIV drug resistance database of Stanford University, using the proposed model simulates the dynamics of the two groups of patients’ anti-HIV infection treatment. The numerical simulation results are in agreement with the evolutions of the patients’ HIV RNA levels. It can be assumed that if an HIV infected individual’s basic virus reproductive numberR0<1then this person will recover automatically; if an antiretroviral therapy makes an HIV infected individual’sR0<1, this person will be cured eventually; if an antiretroviral therapy fails to suppress an HIV infected individual’s HIV RNA load to be of unpredictable level, the time that the patient’s HIV RNA level has achieved the minimum value may be the starting time that drug resistance has appeared.

Hiv Infection Model

Abstract In this paper, a human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection model that includes a protease inhibitor (PI), two intracellular delays, and a general incidence function is derived from biologically natural assumptions. The global dynamical behavior of the model in terms of the basic reproduction number $\mathcal{R}_{0}$ R 0 is investigated by the methods of Lyapunov functional and limiting system. The infection-free equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable if $\mathcal{R}_{0}\leq 1$ R 0 ≤ 1 . If $\mathcal{R}_{0}>1$ R 0 > 1 , then the positive equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable. Finally, numerical simulations are performed to illustrate the main results and to analyze thre effects of time delays and the efficacy of the PI on $\mathcal{R}_{0}$ R 0 .
