Thyroid cancer incidence near nuclear sites in Belgium: An ecological study at small geographical level.
there is an excess incidence of thyroid cancer among people living in the vicinity of the four nuclear sites at the smallest Belgian geographical level. Rate ratios were obtained from a Bayesian ...
Childhood leukemia near nuclear sites in Belgium: An ecological study at small geographical level.
statistical sector level. RESULTS: Higher incidence rate ratios were found for children <15 years (7 cases, RR = 3.01, 95% CI: 1.43;6.35) and children <5 years (< 5 cases, RR = 3.62, 95% CI: 1.35;9.74) ...
Disentangling the Link between Built/Non-Built Environment and Mental Health in Brussels
association between mental health and environmental indicators will be presented at three levels : the residential level (view of green, garden coverage, building characteristics), the street level (vegetation ...
Metabolic reprogramming of Pseudomonas aeruginosa by phage-based quorum sensing modulation.
pathway enzyme, resulting in decreased levels of PQS and its precursor 2-heptyl-4(1H)-quinolone. The lack of a functional PqsD enzyme impairs LUZ19 infection but is restored by external supplementation of ...
Changing epidemiology of Enteritidis human infections in the Netherlands and Belgium, 2006 to 2019: a registry-based population study.
of this trend reversal, attention should also be given to factors known to influence SE epidemiology at primary (animal) production and pathogen genomic levels. Manuscript versions: DOI: ...
The impact of individual-level heterogeneity on estimated infectious disease burden: a simulation study.
individual-level frailty (i.e., heterogeneity in disease risk) distribution, and DALY s were calculated. RESULTS: Under the assumption of heterogeneity in transition rates and increasing frailty with age, the short ...

Simultaneous determination of parabens, bisphenols and alkylphenols in human placenta by ultra-high performance liquid chromatography- tandem mass spectrometry
levels (0.5–5 and 25 ng g−1). The parameters accuracy and precision fulfill the criteria. Calibration curves are linear between 0.5 and 50 ng −1. The limits of detection and quantification are in the range ...
The impact of shelf tags with Nutri-Score on consumer purchases: a difference-in-difference analysis of a natural experiment in supermarkets of a major retailer in Belgium
linear mixed models to account for clustering at store-level. We controlled for store characteristics (region, cluster, non-food sales) and week of the year. Analyses were weighted to re-balance ...
