This paper aims to study the dynamics of new HIV (the human immunodeficiency virus) models with switching nonlinear incidence functions and pulse control. Nonlinear incidence functions are first assumed to be time-varying functions and switching functional forms in time, which have more realistic significance to model infectious disease models. New threshold conditions with the periodic switching term are obtained to guarantee eradication of the disease, by using the novel type of common Lyapunov function. Furthermore, pulse vaccination is applied to the above model, and new sufficient conditions for the eradication of the disease are presented in terms of the pulse effect and the switching effect. Finally, several numerical examples are given to show the effectiveness of the proposed results, and future directions are put forward.

This paper studies some human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) models with switching parameters and pulse control. The classical virus dynamics model is first modified by incorporating switching parameters which are assumed to be time-varying. Some threshold conditions are derived to guarantee the virus elimination by utilizing a Razumikhin-type approach. The results show that the proper switching conditions chosen can increase the counts of CD4+T-cells while reducing viral load. Pulse control strategies are then applied to the above model. More precisely, the treatment strategy and the vaccination strategy are applied to infected cells and uninfected cells, respectively. Each control strategy is analyzed to gauge its success in achieving viral suppression. Numerical simulations are performed to complement the analytical results and motivate future directions.

This paper mainly studies the threshold dynamics of new multicity HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) epidemic models with switching parameters and pulse control. The model’s parameters are assumed to be time-varying functions and switching functional forms in time due to seasonal changes. And the susceptible population is assumed to become infected via shared injections or sexual contacts with infected individuals and pre-AIDS patients (following infection with HIV but before the full development of acquired immune deficiency syndrome). New threshold conditions are established to ensure the extinction of the disease by using Razumikhin-type approach. Pulse control strategies are then applied to the multicity epidemic model and analyzed to guarantee their success in eradicating the disease. Numerical examples are performed to support the analytical results.

<abstract><p>In this paper, we investigate and obtain a new discrete $ q $-fractional version of the Gronwall inequality. As applications, we consider the existence and uniqueness of the solution of $ q $-fractional damped difference systems with time delay. Moreover, we formulate the novel sufficient conditions such that the $ q $-fractional damped difference delayed systems is finite time stable. Our result extend the main results of the paper by Abdeljawad et al. [A generalized $ q $-fractional Gronwall inequality and its applications to nonlinear delay $ q $-fractional difference systems, J.Inequal. Appl. 2016,240].</p></abstract>

The novel coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2, caused lethal human respiratory infections, and there is a big problem to control the disease. The application of other viruses to compete with the novel coronavirus was proposed in this paper. On the viewpoint of receptor competition, resource competition, and cross immunity, an attempt should be made to select a natural virus, such as the common coronavirus causing the common cold in human, or transform a virus with biotechnology in order to resist the novel coronavirus. Similar scenarios were suggested to deal with other viruses like human immunodeficiency virus. Microecological communities of viruses could form an independent research area to dig the deeper biological and medical significance. The present study provided the information to further the theoretical implication and medical application of the study of virus interactions.

This paper is concerned with the stability problem of a class of discrete-time stochastic fuzzy neural networks with mixed delays. New Lyapunov-Krasovskii functions are proposed and free weight matrices are introduced. The novel sufficient conditions for the stability of discrete-time stochastic fuzzy neural networks with mixed delays are established in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). Finally, numerical examples are given to illustrate the effectiveness and benefits of the proposed method.

The recent discovery of lymphatic vessels in the meningeal layers calls into question the known mechanisms of fluid and macromolecule homeostasis and immunoregulation within the central nervous system. These meningeal lymphatic vessels and their potential role in the pathophysiology of neurological disease have become a rapidly expanding area of research, with the hopes that they may provide a novel therapeutic target in the treatment of many devastating conditions. This article reviews the current state of knowledge surrounding the anatomical structure of the vessels, their functions in fluid and solute transport and immune surveillance, as well as their studied developmental biology, relationship with the novel hypothesized “glymphatic” system, and implications in neurodegenerative disease in animal models. Furthermore, this review summarizes findings from the human studies conducted thus far regarding the presence, anatomy, and drainage patterns of meningeal lymphatic vessels and discusses, from a clinical perspective, advancements in both imaging technologies and interventional methodologies used to access ultrafine peripheral lymphatic vessels.
