Development of Digital Droplet PCR Targeting the Influenza H3N2 Oseltamivir-Resistant E119V Mutation and Its Performance through the Use of Reverse Genetics Mutants.
an RT-ddPCR instead of qPCR method in the context of viral diagnostics and surveillance. Health Topics: Griep Flu Grippe Service: Maladies virales Virale ziekten Viral diseases Manuscript versions: ...
Next-Generation Sequencing: An Eye-Opener for the Surveillance of Antiviral Resistance in Influenza
antivirals can lead to antiviral resistance mutations in the entire influenza genome. Therefore, the methods to detect these mutations should be developed and implemented. In this Opinion, we assess how NGS ...
Real-time prediction of influenza outbreaks in Belgium.
the proposed method can be used to characterize the overall behavior of an epidemic. Health Topics: Griep Flu Grippe Service: Épidémiologie des maladies infectieuses Epidemiologie van infectieziekten ...
Survey on the Use of Whole-Genome Sequencing for Infectious Diseases Surveillance: Rapid Expansion of European National Capacities, 2015-2016.
analysis was limited. By mid-2016, half of the EU / EEA countries were using WGS analysis either as first- or second-line typing method for surveillance of the pathogens and antibiotic resistance issues ...
The impact of regular school closure on seasonal influenza epidemics: a data-driven spatial transmission model for Belgium.
in the community. The policy is still however highly debated because of controversial evidence. Moreover, the specific mechanisms leading to mitigation are not clearly identified. METHODS: We ...
Influenza epidemic surveillance and prediction based on electronic health record data from an out-of-hours general practitioner cooperative: model development and validation on 2003-2015 data.
METHOD: Validity of the OOH GPC data was assessed by comparing OOH GPC ILI data with WIV- ISP ILI data for the period 2003-2012 and using Pearson’s correlation. The best fitting prediction model based on ...
