Clinical performance of the novel full-genotyping OncoPredict HPV Quantitative Typing assay using the VALGENT framework.
reproducibility of the assay was assessed on a subpopulation, comprising 526 samples. The relative sensitivity and specificity for OncoPredict HPV QT vs GP5 +/6+- PCR- EIA were 1.01 (95% CI: 0.99-1.03) and 1.03 ...
Association between SARS-CoV-2 variants and post COVID-19 condition: findings from a longitudinal cohort study in the Belgian adult population
during the Omicron-dominant period (OR = 1.61, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.33-1.96 and OR = 1.73, 95% CI = 1.54-1.93, respectively). Participants infected during the Alpha and Delta-dominant ...
Factors influencing SARS-CoV-2 infection rate in Belgian nursing homes’ residents during the first wave of COVID-19 pandemic
more dependent residents (Incidence rate ratio (IRR): 1.97; 95% CI: 1.00-3.86) and higher staff’s infection rate (IRR: 1.89; 95% CI: 1.68- 2.12). No relationship was found between other investigated NH ...
Risk Factors Associated with Severe RSV Infection in Infants: What Is the Role of Viral Co-Infections?
pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) admission rates (OR = 5.9, 95% CI = 1.53 to 22.74), longer duration of hospitalization (IRR = 1.25, 95% CI = 1.03 to 1.52), and a higher Bronchiolitis Risk of Admission ...
Factors underlying COVID-19 booster vaccine uptake among fully vaccinated adults in Belgium
multiple infections (COVID-naive reference, minimum 1 infection before PC: OR =0.73, 95% CI 0.67-0.79, 1 infection after PC: OR =0.29, 95% CI 0.27–0.31; multiple infections before and after; OR =0.15, 95% CI ...
Factors underlying COVID-19 booster vaccine uptake among fully vaccinated adults in Belgium
with no infection, especially when the infection occurred after completion of PC and with multiple infections (COVID-naive reference, minimum 1 infection before PC: OR =0.73, 95% CI 0.67-0.79, ...
Post COVID-19 condition and health-related quality of life: a longitudinal cohort study in the Belgian adult population
a significant decline in HRQ oL during the SARS-CoV-2 infection in comparison to the situation before (β=-9.91, 95% CI =-10.13;-9.85), but no clinically important difference three months after the infection ...
Evaluation of the clinical performance of OncoPredict HPV® SCR assay within the VALGENT‐2 framework
index versus comparator were 1.01 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.99-1.03) and 1.02 (95% CI: 1.0-1.04), respectively. Noninferiority p values were all ≤0.05, except for CIN3 + in patients ≥30 years. ...
Inequalities in mortality associated with housing conditions in Belgium between 1991 and 2020
housing inequality. RESULTS: Up to 18.5% (95% CI 17.7-19.3) of all deaths between 1991 and 2020 may be associated with housing inequality, corresponding to 584,875 deaths. Over time, life expectancy at birth increased ...
Immunogenicity and one-year boostability of a 3-dose intramuscular rabies pre-exposure prophylaxis schedule in adults receiving immunosuppressive monotherapy: a prospective single-Centre clinical trial.
primary endpoint. RESULTS: We included 56 individuals, of whom 52 completed the study. The one-year boostability was 90% (47/52) with a GMT of 6.16 (95% CI 3.83-9.91). All participants seroconverted at some point in ...
