Identifying outbreak risk factors through case-controls comparisons

Nina H. Fefferman, Michael J. Blum, Lydia Bourouiba, Nathaniel L. Gibson et autres

Outbreaks are typically investigated using approaches that aim to identify place- and context-dependent causative factors. As the focus is on understanding the basis of a specific outbreak, the resulting narratives are rarely suitable for forecasting risk or developing generalizable predictive and preventative …

Potential vertical transmission of genetically diverse Trypanosoma cruzi in natural rodent populations

Nathaniel L. Gibson, Bruno M. Ghersi, Bridget Knudson, Anna C. Peterson et autres

BACKGROUND: Trypanosoma cruzi, the causative agent of Chagas disease, has been detected in mammalian hosts occupying densely populated urban environments. This suggests that the risk of transmission to humans is higher than prevailing estimates, which largely reflect conditions in rural and peri-urban …

The Case for Controls: Identifying outbreak risk factors through case-control comparisons

Nina H. Fefferman, Michael J. Blum, Lydia Bourouiba, Nathaniel L. Gibson et autres

Investigations of infectious disease outbreaks often focus on identifying place- and context-dependent factors responsible for emergence and spread, resulting in phenomenological narratives ill-suited to developing generalizable predictive and preventive measures. We contend that case-control hypothesis testing is a more powerful framework for …
