Mathematical Modeling of Epidemics Using Stochastic Differential Equations: A Review
Abstract: The accurate modeling of infectious disease dynamics is crucial for predicting outbreaks and informing public health interventions. While deterministic models such as the SIR (Susceptible-Infected-Recovered) framework have traditionally been used to understand disease transmission, they often fail to account for the randomness inherent in real-world scenarios. Disease spread is influenced by numerous uncertain factors, including individual behavioral changes, environmental fluctuations, and imperfect data reporting. These uncertainties can significantly impact model …

HPV and Cardiovascular Risk: Unpacking a Novel Link Between Viral Infection and Heart Disease
Abstract: Human papillomavirus (HPV) is best known for its oncogenic potential, yet a growing body of evidence suggests that persistent HPV infection may also contribute to cardiovascular disease (CVD). In 2025, pooled analyses and conference reports galvanized attention by estimating that HPV‐positive individuals have ~40% higher risk of CVD and approximately double the risk of coronary artery disease (CAD) compared with HPV‐negative peers, even after adjustment for traditional risk factors. These …
