Magnitude and determinants of excess total, age-specific and sex-specific all-cause mortality in 24 countries worldwide during 2020 and 2021: results on the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic from the C-MOR project.
using simple and multilevel regression models. RESULTS: Excess cumulative mortality for both 2020 and 2021 was found in Austria, Brazil, Belgium, Cyprus, England and Wales, Estonia, France, Georgia, ...

A proposal for further developing fatigue-related post COVID-19 health states for burden of disease studies
underestimation. A more comprehensive approach to modelling the disease burden from long COVID, in relation to fatigue, can ensure that we do not only focus on what is easiest to measure; which risks losing focus of ...
Genomic monitoring of SARS-CoV-2 variants using sentinel SARI hospital surveillance.
monitor general trends and early signals of viral genetic evolution of SARS-CoV-2 and compare it with the BGS as a reference model. METHODS: Nine-hundred twenty-five SARS-CoV-2 positive samples from ...
Time series modelling for wastewater-based epidemiology of COVID-19: A nationwide study in 40 wastewater treatment plants of Belgium, February 2021 to June 2022
multiple factors impede the usefulness of WBE and quantitative adjustment may be required. Aim: We aimed to model the relationship between WBE data and incident COVID-19 cases, while adjusting for ...
Direct impact of COVID-19 by estimating disability-adjusted life years at national level in France in 2020
on the European Burden of Disease Network consensus disease model. Scenario analyses were performed by varying the number of symptomatic cases and duration of symptoms up to a maximum of 140 days, ...
Exploratory study of risk factors related to SARS-CoV-2 prevalence in nursing homes in Flanders (Belgium) during the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic
resident-related factors, management and performance features as well as building-related aspects. The relation between risk factors and seroprevalence was assessed by applying random forest modelling, generalized ...
Identification of Mycobacterium abscessus Subspecies by MALDI-TOF Mass Spectrometry and Machine Learning.
challenging. In this study, a collection of 325 clinical isolates of M. abscessus was used for MALDI- TOF MS analysis and for the development of machine learning predictive models based on MALDI- TOF MS protein ...
Post COVID-19 condition and health-related quality of life: a longitudinal cohort study in the Belgian adult population
months later. Linear mixed regression models were built to assess the longitudinal association between participants’ characteristics and the evolution of their HRQ oL. Results This study found ...
Self-uniqueness beliefs and adherence to recommended precautions. A 5-wave longitudinal COVID-19 study
a 5-wave longitudinal study in December 2020-May 2021 (N ≈ 5000/wave). The sample was in key respects representative for the Belgian population. We used joint models to examine the relationship between ...
