The authors read, classified, and discussed the associated scientific results or evidences, and summarized the corresponding results.RESULTS: In this review, recent studies on the bene-ficial effects of Radix Ginseng extracts on microbial and biofilm infections were reviewed. The importance and significance of Radix Ginseng's beneficial effects are discussed. Evidence for the favorable effects of Radix Ginseng extracts on viral, bacterial,fungal, and parasitic infections and the possible underlying mechanisms are summarized.CONCLUSION: Radix Ginseng might be a promising supplemental remedy for the prevention and treatment of infectious diseases.展开更多

In this paper, a nonautonomous schistosomiasis system is established, in which the saturation incidence rate and the coefficients varying with time are taken into account. The long-time behavior of the model is studied. Under quite weak assumptions, sufficient conditions for the permanence and extinction of infectious population of disease are obtained. Finally, numerical simulations illustrate the validity of our results.展开更多
