Dengue continues to be the main arbovirosis, with endemic characteristics, in at least 100 countries, affecting an average of 50 million patients per year, and with a high incidence in pediatric ages. To mathematically model the cases of Dengue in pediatric age through the methodology of the Objective Regression Regressive, during the period 2016-2...

Millions of people suffer from infections transmitted by arthropod vectors; among them, culicidae are undoubtedly the most important hygienic-sanitary ones, because they constitute one of the priority health problems in almost all tropical and subtropical regions. The objective of the research consisted in analyzing the development dynamics of mosq...

Fasciolosis is one of the most important causes of reduction in milk production, growth and fertility in cattle and causes considerable economic losses generated by liver seizures in slaughterhouses. The objective of this study was to determine the occurrence of livers seized by Fasciola hepatica in the Lorenzo Gonzales bovine slaughterhouse in Sag...

Earthquakes and cyclones are two of the most destructive natural events, with the greatest consequences for both vector organism populations and human health. The objective of the research was to demonstrate how hurricanes and earthquakes can be predicted by mathematical modeling. The study was carried out based on the forecast of the atmospheric p...

Climate has an important influence on infectious diseases and their different modes of transmission. Dengue is among the most relevant for Cuban public health. Due to the pronounced effect that environmental changes can have on the biology of Aedes aegypti, it is very likely that the epidemiology of this arbovirosis will be profoundly influenced by...

Emerging and re-emerging infectious diseases constitute one of the main health problems worldwide. The objective of the research consisted of analyzing the development dynamics of adult mosquito populations of the species Ae. aegypti in Villa Clara province, Cuba during the period 2016-2020. The research covered the 13 municipalities of Villa Clara...

The COVID-19 pandemic affecting planet Earth has had a peculiar development in our country. Objective: The objective of the research was to model, using the Regressive Objective Regression (ROR) methodology, a set of parameters (deaths, critical, severe, confirmed and new cases) inherent to the SARS CoV-2 COVID-19 pandemic, so far in 2020 in Cuba....

Resumen: Varias especies de organismos representativos de los diferentes ecosistemas son utilizados como biomodelos para evaluar el impacto ambiental de productos contaminantes del medio ambiente, así como de productos químicos y bioproductos que son empleados como fertilizantes y controladores de plagas en la agricultura. Se determinó la sensibili...

The objective of the study was to characterize the time series and trends for the focality of the Aedes aegypti mosquito, by both months and years (2007-2017) in Villa Clara province, Cuba. In Cuba, the incidence of these entities, both parasitic and viral, is undoubtedly a health problem , with a tendency to increase the number of cases, as well a...

The COVID-19 pandemic affecting planet Earth has had a peculiar development in Cuba. The objective of the research consisted in modeling by means of the methodology of the Regressive Objective Regression (ROR) two parameters/variables (age and number of contacts) inherent to the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic causing the COVID-19, during the year 2020 and so...

The objective of the study was to characterize the time series and trends for the focality of the Aedes aegypti mosquito, by both months and years (2007-2017) in Villa Clara province, Cuba. The research covered the 13 municipalities of the province, as well as the number of breeding sites reported by them in the different months of the analyzed per...

Millions of people suffer from infections transmitted by arthropod vectors; among them, culicids are undoubtedly the most important in terms of hygiene and health because they are one of the priority health problems in almost all tropical and subtropical regions. The objective of the study was to establish a forecast model among some meteorological...

Molluscs are in appearance, anatomy, physiology and ecology a highly diverse group and represent the second largest group of invertebrates. The objective of the present work was to make a mathematical model based on meteorological variables, which allows predicting the distribution and abundance of fluvial and terrestrial gastropods in the municipa...
