Allergic Asthma Favors Growth in the Lungs of Infected Mice.
bacteria in mice. We observed that i.n. sensitization with extracts of the house dust mite or the mold () significantly increased the number of, and in the lungs of infected mice. Microscopic analysis showed ...
Ethnicity impacts the cystic fibrosis diagnosis: A note of caution.
patients with CF do not have a worse clinical phenotype. The repeatedly reported lower FEV1 of Asian patients with CF is attributable to the influence of ethnicity on lung function in general. However, ...
Trends in educational inequalities in premature mortality in Belgium between the 1990s and the 2000s: the contribution of specific causes of deaths.
All-cause and avoidable ASMR decreased in all EL s and both sexes. Lung cancer, ischaemic heart disease (IHD), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and suicide in men, and IHD, stroke, lung cancer and ...
Nontuberculous mycobacteria among pulmonary tuberculosis patients: a retrospective Belgian multicenter study.
included in the study. Only 35 (1.4%) of these TB cases had an NTM co-isolated, and two of these 35 fulfilled the ATS criteria for NTM lung disease. CONCLUSION: A very low prevalence of 1.4% NTM ...
Educational inequalities in premature mortality by region in the Belgian population in the 2000s
most specific causes of premature mortality. Ranking the cause-specific PAF s revealed a higher health impact of inequalities in causes combining high mortality rate and relative inequality, with lung ...
The search for therapeutic bacteriophages uncovers one new subfamily and two new genera of Pseudomonas-infecting Myoviridae.
a mouse model of lung infection. Here, we show that their genomes are closely related to five other Pseudomonas phages and allow a subdivision into two clades, PAK_P1-like and KPP10-like viruses, based on ...
No evidence of coronavirus infection by reverse transcriptase-PCR in bats in Belgium.
coronavirus was detected by PCR in lung and intestine samples of 100 bats, mostly common pipistrelles (Pipistrellus pipistrellus), collected dead between 2008 and 2013 for rabies surveillance in Belgium. The ...
False-positive rifampicin resistance on Xpert® MTB/RIF caused by a silent mutation in the rpoB gene.

Premature mortality in Belgium in 1993-2009: leading causes, regional disparities and 15 years change
(-21.0%) and the external causes (-20.8%). The larger decrease in single cause is observed for stomach cancer (-48.4%), road accident (-44%), genital organs (-40.4%) and lung (-34.6%) cancers. On the ...
M.tuberculosis mutants lacking oxygenated mycolates show increased immunogenicity and protective efficacy as compared to M. bovis BCG vaccine in an experimental mouse model.
the two mutants conferred stronger protection against intratracheal M.tb challenge than vaccination with BCG, as indicated by reduced bacterial replication in lungs at 4 to 12 weeks after challenge. ...
