Residential greenness and pollen exposure across gestational trimesters in relation to preschool wheezing: Results for the PIPO birth cohort
and 250 m buffer. Cumulative grass and birch pollen was estimated using modelled airborne pollen counts and categorized per trimester into no, low and high. All exposures were assessed for the overall ...
The importance of including a mental health dimension in a multimorbidity indicator: an analysis of Belgian health survey data.
between the MI s and the health correlates and compared the goodness of fit of the different models. RESULTS: MI prevalence was higher when including a mental health dimension assessed with the GHQ-12 ...
COVID-19 mortality statistics: a comparative study of epidemiological surveillance data and death certificates in 2020 in Belgium
regression models. SURV identified 90% (n=19,801) of COVID-19-related deaths from COD (n=22,015). Coverage was higher in hospitals (98%, n=11,130 in SURV, n=11,335 in COD) and long-term care facilities (90%, n=8,602 ...
Urban green space, human heat perception and sleep quality: A repeated cross-sectional study.
assessing perceived heat stress, sleep quality, and mental health. Using structural equation models, this study analysed the influence of both tree cover and grass and shrub cover on perceived heat stress and ...
Characterizing the extent and nature of digital food and beverage marketing in Singapore- a descriptive study
DESIGN: Advertised foods were classified as being core (healthier), non-core or mixed-dishes (example burger) using the WHO nutrient profile model and national guidelines. Marketing techniques were assessed ...
Physicochemical characterization and genotoxicity assessment of nanomaterials using new approach methodologies
containing a fraction of nanoparticles [4], as well as new innovative NAM s such as the transcriptomics-based biomarker, called GENOMARK. This NAM uses prediction models to classify analyzed materials as ...
Modelling the cost differential between current and healthy diets according to household education level in Belgium.
estimate the cost differential between current and healthy diets, overall and by household education level. Data from the 2014-2015 and food prices from the 2014 were linked. The was used to model healthy, ...
Associations of heat with diseases and specific symptoms in Flanders, Belgium: An 8-year retrospective study of general practitioner registration data.
Flanders, Belgium. METHODS: We used eight years (2012-2019) of aggregated data of daily GP visits during the Belgian summer period (May-September). A distributed lag nonlinear model (DLNM) with time-stratified ...
VERMEER FCM: A tool integrating exposure and hazard modelling for chemicals migrating from food contact materials.
with Regulation (EU) No 10/2011 for plastic FCM. Overall, the tool consists of three modules that allow (i) to model the migration of chemicals into food, (ii) to predict toxicological endpoints relevant ...
Evaluating MIR and NIR Spectroscopy Coupled with Multivariate Analysis for Detection and Quantification of Additives in Tobacco Products.
squares-discriminant analysis (PLS- DA) and soft independent modeling of class analogy (SIMCA) to classify samples based on targeted additives. Based on the unsupervised techniques (PCA and HCA), a distinction could be ...
