Investigating years of life lost in Belgium, 2004-2019: A comprehensive analysis using a probabilistic redistribution approach
online tool https://burden.sciensano.be/shiny/mortality2019/. CONCLUSION: The redistribution process assigned a specific cause of death to all deaths in Belgium, making it possible to investigate the full ...
Animal sources of antimicrobial-resistant bacterial infections in humans: a systematic review
known contributors to the human AMR burden, but the extent of this contribution is not clear. This systematic literature review aimed to identify studies investigating the direct impact of animal sources, ...
Burden of disease attributable to risk factors in European countries: A scoping literature review
uncertainty analysis and the under-investigation of causal relationships in BoD studies. Development and use of guidelines for performing and reporting BoD studies will help understand differences, avoid ...
Maturation of Esophageal Motility and Esophagogastric Junction in Preterm Infants
and to describe maturational changes. Methods: Four consecutive high-resolution manometry studies with impedance studies were performed weekly to investigate esophageal motility and EGJ function. ...
Estimating the direct Covid-19 disability-adjusted life years impact on the Malta population for the first full year
allowing for comprehensive comparisons of the population. The aim was to estimate the DALY s due to Covid-19 in Malta (March 2020–21) and investigate its impact in relation to other causes of disease at ...
Global burden of intellectual disability resulting from dietary exposure to lead, 2015
an uncertainty range of 0-31 million DALY s. Significant uncertainties regarding exposure and dose-response relationships, however, warrant continued investigation. Health Topics: Burden of disease ...
A probabilistic approach for risk-benefit assessment of food substitutions: A case study on substituting meat by fish
individuals. We therefore propose the use of probabilistic methods to model substitution and assess health impact distributions in risk-benefit assessment (RBA) of foods. We investigated the health impact of ...
Burden and Risk Assessment of Foodborne Disease
who allows contamination, and the government agencies that monitor, investigate, and regulate all incur costs from foodborne disease. Accordingly, economists have been very interested in assessing the ...
A review of known and hypothetical transmission routes for noroviruses
transmission is without a doubt the dominant transmission route, human infective NoV outbreaks are often initiated by contaminated food or water. Zoonotic transmission of NoV has been investigated, but has thus ...
