Local approach to attributable disease burden: a case study on air pollution and mortality in Belgium
means the local method shows potential for comparing areas and population groups at subnational level, where estimates can be generated in a flexible manner depending on research or policy needs. Health ...
The impact of ecosystem nitrogen enrichment on pollen allergy: a cross-sectional paired comparison study
specific IgE measurements in a cross-sectional sample of adults who were allergic to grass pollen (n=20). Basophil activation test outcome measures included area under the dose-response curve, maximal ...
Evaluation of an interferon-gamma release assay for early detection of lumpy skin disease virus infection and vaccination in cattle.
Abstract: Lumpy skin disease virus (LSDV) causes a nodular dermatitis in cattle and has high economic consequences in affected areas. Detection of LSDV exposure mostly relies on the humoral immune response, ...
Residential tree canopy configuration and mortality in 6 million Swiss adults: a longitudinal study
tree canopy cover, PM10, air temperature, urbanisation level, age, sex, and area-based local socioeconomic position. Findings Our analyses included 6 215 073 individuals from the SNC between 2010 and ...
EBoD-FL. Guidelines for mapping the environmental burden of disease in Flanders, 2024
geographic detail to the EBD estimates, and allows to mutually compare small areas and local populations. Additionally, the local results can be aggregated to wider areas and larger populations, which allows ...
Residential tree canopy configuration and mortality in 6 million Swiss adults: a longitudinal study.
for personal sociodemographic and contextual covariates. We also explored the effect modification by tree canopy cover, PM, air temperature, urbanisation level, age, sex, and area-based local ...
How to scale up telemedicine for cancer prevention and care? Recommendations for sustainably implementing telemedicine services within EU health systems
eHealth policies in European countries. Additionally, the eCAN roadmap proposed 16 recommendations across six intervention areas, addressing regulatory frameworks, stakeholder engagement, infrastructure ...
Ketamine, a new (or old) kid on the block: A comprehensive three-year spatio-temporal study in Belgium through wastewater-based epidemiology
detected in respectively 98%, 96%, and 76% of all samples. Substantial consumption was observed in both urban and rural areas, with higher PNML s in major cities and the east of Flanders. Temporal analysis ...
Antigenic changes in influenza A(H3N2) driven by genetic evolution: Insights from virological surveillance, EU/EEA, week 40/2023 to week 9/2024
2023/24 influenza season in the European Union/European Economic Area (EU / EEA), influenza viruses A(H1N1)pdm09, A(H3N2) and B/Victoria viruses were co-circulating. Aim We aimed to describe the circulating ...
Physicochemical characterization and genotoxicity assessment of nanomaterials using new approach methodologies
smaller size and increased volume-specific surface area, nanoparticles may possess unique properties compared to their bulk counterparts, making them useful for applications such as food coloring and plant ...
