A Belgian Serosurveillance/Seroprevalence Study of Diphtheria, Tetanus and Pertussis Using a Luminex xMAP Technology-Based Pentaplex
collected in 2012 in Belgian adults (ages 20-29.9 years) were analyzed. Geometric mean concentrations (GMC) were 0.2 (0.13-0.29) IU /mL for DT, 0.63 (0.45-0.82) IU /mL for TT, 3.9 (2.6-5.8) IU /mL for PT, ...
Pertussis vaccination during pregnancy in Vietnam: Results of a randomized controlled trial Pertussis vaccination during pregnancy.
month 2-3-4) of a pertussis containing vaccine. Significantly higher geometric mean concentrations (GMC) were observed for all 3 measured pertussis antigens in the offspring of the Tdap group, up to ...
Pertussis vaccination during pregnancy in Belgium: Results of a prospective controlled cohort study.
A control group of pregnant women (N=42) received no vaccine. Antibody geometric mean concentrations (GMC s) against tetanus (TT), diphtheria (DT), pertussis toxin (PT), filamentous haemagglutinin (FHA) and ...
Exposure determinants of cadmium in European mothers and their children.
geometric mean (gm) urinary cadmium (UC d; 0.24 µg/g crea; n=360) than non-smoking mothers (gm 0.18 µg/g crea; n=1272; p <0.0001), and children had lower UCd (gm 0.065 µg/g crea; n=1689) than their mothers ...
Mapping the cause-specific premature mortality reveals large between-districts disparity in Belgium, 2003-2009
are grouped into classes with a geometrical progression of 1.1 and are represented with a diverging scale of colours. The disparity between districts was measured with the decile ratio (P90 / P10). The ...

and urban areas, was examined within a core period of 6 months in 2011-2012. Women were stratified as smokers and non-smokers. As expected, smoking mothers had higher geometric mean (gm) urinary cadmium ...
Pathways of human exposure to cobalt in Katanga, a mining area of the D.R. Congo.
each location. A food questionnaire was used to estimate dietary Co intake for adults and children. Geometric mean urine-Co (U-Co) concentrations were 4.5-fold (adults) and 6.6-fold (children) higher in ...
Hair mercury and urinary cadmium levels in Belgian children and their mothers within the framework of the COPHES/DEMOCOPHES projects.
(≤ 45 years) living in urban or rural areas of Belgium. The geometric mean levels for mercury in hair were 0.383 μg/g and 0.204 μg/g for respectively mothers and children. Cadmium in mother’s and ...
Mercury and cadmium levels in Belgian children and their mothers
levels were measured in centrifuged and acidified urine by ICP- MS (LOQ =0.01µg/g), while total mercury was analyzed by FIMS on hydrolyzed hairs (LOQ =0.08µg/g). Results The geometric mean level for ...
