广泛用于疾病流行病学的感染阈值可能对宿主丰度起作用,如果存在,也可能对病媒丰度起作用。对于野生动物种群而言,宿主和病媒丰度往往在不同年份之间变化很大,因此,阈值可能会定期上下跨越。此外,媒介和宿主丰度可能是相互依赖的,这可能会影响感染动态。理论预测,如果相关丰度或丰度组合高于阈值,那么感染就能够传播;如果不是,它必然会消失。然而,实际上,观察到的感染水平可能更多地取决于过去而不是当前的丰度。在这里,我们研究了鼠疫(鼠疫耶尔森氏菌感染),其载体(跳蚤)和其主机(大沙鼠)在哈萨克斯坦的Prehanhash地区的时间动态。我们描述了宿主和媒介丰度如何随着时间的推移相互作用,以及这种相互作用如何驱动系统的动态感染阈值周围,从而影响感染的部门的比例。我们还探讨了生物和可检测性延迟之间的相互作用的重要性,在产生所观察到的动态。
Infection thresholds, widely used in disease epidemiology, may operate on host abundance and, if present, on vector abundance. For wildlife populations, host and vector abundances often vary greatly across years and consequently the threshold may be crossed regularly, both up- and downward. Moreover, vector and host abundances may be interdependent, which may affect the infection dynamics. Theory predicts that if the relevant abundance, or combination of abundances, is above the threshold, then the infection is able to spread; if not, it is bound to fade out. In practice, though, the observed level of infection may depend more on past than on current abundances. Here, we study the temporal dynamics of plague (Yersinia pestis infection), its vector (flea) and its host (great gerbil) in the PreBalkhash region in Kazakhstan. We describe how host and vector abundances interact over time and how this interaction drives the dynamics of the system around the infection threshold, consequently affecting the proportion of plague-infected sectors. We also explore the importance of the interplay between biological and detectability delays in generating the observed dynamics.
