Exploratory study of risk factors related to SARS-CoV-2 prevalence in nursing homes in Flanders (Belgium) during the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic

linear models and Bayesian linear regression. The present analyses showed that the prevalence of residents with dementia, the scarcity of personal protective equipment (surgical masks, FFP2 masks, glasses ...

Post COVID-19 condition and health-related quality of life: a longitudinal cohort study in the Belgian adult population

months later. Linear mixed regression models were built to assess the longitudinal association between participants’ characteristics and the evolution of their HRQ oL. Results This study found ...

The influence of risk perceptions on close contact frequency during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic

study, we surveyed a representative sample of adults in Belgium in two longitudinal surveys (survey 1 in April 2020 to August 2020, and survey 2 in November 2020 to April 2021). Generalized linear mixed ...

Validity of self-reported air pollution annoyance to assess long-term exposure to air pollutants in Belgium

Health Interview Survey (BHIS) 2013 linked to GIS-modelled air pollution exposure at the residence place of participants older than 15 years (n = 9347). First, univariate linear regressions were performed ...

The potential impact of an implemented income redistribution package on obesity prevalence in New Zealand.

(absolute and relative) individual income and obesity prevalence. These associations were then used to model the potential effect of a New Zealand (NZ) Government’s income redistributive policy (the Families ...

Determinants of persistent organic pollutant (POP) concentrations in human breast milk of a cross-sectional sample of primiparous mothers in Belgium

contingency tables and multivariable generalized linear models. Results Fifteen of the 23 screened POP s were detected in the breast milk samples. Four organochlorine compounds (p,p′- DDT, p,p′- DDE, HCB and β- ...

Burden of salmonellosis, campylobacteriosis and listeriosis: a time series analysis, Belgium, 2012 to 2020.

(DALY s). The salmonellosis time series was fitted with a Bai and Perron two-breakpoint model, while a dynamic linear model was used for campylobacteriosis and a Poisson autoregressive model for ...

Multinomial additive hazard model to assess the disability burden using cross-sectional data.

maximize the multinomial log-likelihood function subject to a linear inequality constraint. Our simulation study indicates overall good performance of the model, without convergence problems. However, the ...

Mortality related to cold and heat. What do we learn from dairy cattle?

distributed lag non-linear models. Province-specific results were combined in a multivariate meta-analysis. Relative to the estimated minimum mortality temperature of 15.4°C (75th percentile), the pooled ...

Effect of Antimicrobial Consumption and Production Type on Antibacterial Resistance in the Bovine Respiratory and Digestive Tract.

antimicrobial agents demonstrated large differences between intensively reared veal calves (abundant and inconstant) and more extensively reared dairy and beef cattle (sparse and relatively stable). Using linear ...
