# Non-Linear Modeling of Immune System Activation and Lymph Flow Dynamics
###### Abstract  
The immune system is a vital defense network within the body, where lymph and lymph nodes play pivotal roles. Lymph is a transparent fluid containing white blood cells, specifically lymphocytes, which circulate through the lymphatic system, rapidly multiplying to fight viruses and bacteria. Lymph nodes function as filters, capturing and eliminating infections and abnormal cells found in the lymphatic fluid prior to its reentry into the circulatory system. A thorough meta-analysis of research publications in the topic is conducted utilizing Bibliometrix to comprehensively assess the current literature. The paper is centered on understanding the intricate relationship between interferons, dendritic cells, and macrophages in the lymphatic system during hepatitis virus infection. A nonlinear model for the development of the virus is used, together with the initial conditions, for a much better understanding of a hepatitis-C infection. The associated Cauchy problem is numerically solved and graphs are depicted. The interpretation of the figures explains the dynamics of interferons, dendritic cells, and macrophages as well as their interaction with other factors. By adopting an interdisciplinary approach, this study offers fresh perspectives and uncovers new research areas to better comprehend and battle hepatitis virus infections. lymphatic system; immunology; mathematical modeling; lymph flow

Bibliometrix is a software tool specifically developed for bibliometric analysis in R version 4.3.2 [3]. It allows the quantitative assessment of academic publications. This implementation's purpose is to analyze the development of citations, authorship, and collaborative networks in scholarly literature. A Bibliohiny analysis in the Bibliometrix library shows that the keywords (i.e., immunology, mathematical modeling, lymph flow) have been used together in the scientific world by 289 authors since 1991. Word clouds are an intriguing sort of diagram that illustrate the frequency of selected terms in a corpus of text data. These are a particularly interesting type of diagram. A Word cloud displays terms with a higher frequency with a larger font size than those with a lower frequency. One example of this can be found in Figure 1, where it is possible to see that dendritic cells, immune response, lymphagionesis, lymph nodes, and T-cells are utilized in a correlational manner and on a highly regular basis. Another type of diagram is the three-field plot in Figure 2, which is generally utilized as a visual assessment tool to analyze the interconnection of several aspects, including sources, countries, affiliations, keywords, prominent authors, cited sources, and authors. The one below includes the correlation between titles and different types of keywords [4]. With the diagram's support, it is possible to notice that the relationships are numerous and intricate. This suggests that numerous scientists have made efforts to investigate and comprehend the immune system's response, its functioning, and the precise mechanisms by which lymph transports and eliminates viruses and bacteria. According to global data [5; 6], the diagnosis and treatment coverage remains alarmingly low. For hepatitis B, from the people who have been diagnosed with the disease, only 2.6% have received antiviral therapy. In the African region, only 0.2% of the hepatitis-infected people were treated. Similarly, in the Southeast Asia region, the treatment coverage of the diagnosed people is just 0.1%. The low diagnosis and therapeutic percentages exist due to many reasons, the most important one being the biological complexity of the hepatitis infection. Hepatitis B is marked by a long asymptomatic period and a fluctuating disease course, making eradication very difficult [7]. These numbers highlight a need for improvement in early detection and research in this area. Figure 1: Word cloud.
