corpus uteri cancer mortality rates by calendar period and standardised cohort mortality ratios were also estimated. RESULTS: In 2008, 12,903 women died from corpus uteri cancer in the EU. Corrected ...
Educational inequalities in leisure-time physical activity in 15 European countries.
data on subjects aged 16-64 years derived from national health interview surveys from 15 European countries were used for the analysis. We used log-binominal regression to assess prevalence rate ratios ...
Association of physical activity, waist circumference and body mass index with subjective health among Belgian adults.
Obese individuals were significantly less likely to report good subjective health than those with normal BMI [odds ratio (OR) = 0.538; 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.390-0.742]. This association was also ...
Multi-dye residue analysis of triarylmethane, xanthene, phenothiazine and phenoxazine dyes in fish tissues by ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry.
0.25ngg(-1) for all dyes, with a signal-to-noise ratio of at least 10/1. This is at least 5 to 10 times lower than previous published methods. Limits of detection were all <0.1ngg(-1). Precision and trueness ...
Efficacy of HPV-based screening for prevention of invasive cervical cancer: follow-up of four European randomised controlled trials.
cervical carcinomas by linkage with screening, pathology, and cancer registries, by masked review of histological specimens, or from reports. Cumulative and study-adjusted rate ratios (experimental vs ...
Accuracy of human papillomavirus testing on self-collected versus clinician-collected samples: a meta-analysis.
than HPV testing on a clinician-taken sample (ratio 0·88 [95% CI 0·85-0·91] for CIN2 or worse and 0·89 [0·83-0·96] for CIN3 or worse). Also specificity was lower in self-samples versus clinician-taken ...
Premature mortality in Belgium in 1993-2009: leading causes, regional disparities and 15 years change
WHO mortality database. Age-adjusted mortality rates and Person Year of Life Lost (PYLL) were calculated. The Rate Ratios were computed for regional and international comparisons, using the region or ...
Using multiple measures to assess changes in social inequalities for breast cancer screening
socio-economic position was defined by the educational level. Inequalities were measured both with pairwise measures comparing extreme educational groups (prevalence difference and prevalence ratio), and with ...
Effect of a DIVA vaccine with and without in-feed use of coated calcium-butyrate on transmission of Salmonella Typhimurium in pigs.
n = 8) control group. Until six weeks post challenge, blood, individual faecal and finally tissue samples were examined. Adjusted transmission ratios ‘Ra’ were estimated, based on the challenge strain ...
Triage of women with minor abnormal cervical cytology: meta-analysis of the accuracy of an assay targeting messenger ribonucleic acid of 5 high-risk human papillomavirus types.
assay (ratio: 1.98 and 3.36, respectively; P < .001) but was less sensitive (ratio: 0.80 and 0.74, respectively; P < .001). CONCLUSIONS: HPV assays for detecting the mRNA of 5 hrHPV types may reduce ...
