EBoD-FL. Guidelines for mapping the environmental burden of disease in Flanders, 2024
Given the extensive list of potential risk factor-health outcome pairs, a set of priorities was defined in terms of environmental stressors and health outcomes. The risk factors that were prioritised are ...
Urban green space, human heat perception and sleep quality: A repeated cross-sectional study.
sleep quality, while controlling for risk and vulnerability factors. The outcomes revealed that during heat events, enhanced tree cover was associated with reduced heat stress (B = -0.484, 95% CI ...
Associations of heat with diseases and specific symptoms in Flanders, Belgium: An 8-year retrospective study of general practitioner registration data.
matter, humidity, and ozone. RESULTS: The overall (lag0-14) association between heat and most of the outcomes was J-shaped, with an increased risk of disease observed at higher temperatures. The ...
Overview of air quality measures aiming to reduce emissions from road traffic and mitigate health impact in Belgium
scientific literature on the effectiveness of traffic-related air quality measures in Belgium, assessing their impact on concentration levels and improved public health outcomes This study is part of the ...
A validation methodology for size and shape measurement of nanoplastics by transmission electron microscopy
smaller particles, might be at the origin of this discrepancy. We see indeed that for material 3060A, the outcome of the validation study is less robust against variations in image analysis settings. ...
A systematic review and meta-analysis of human population studies on the association between exposure to toxic environmental chemicals and left ventricular dysfunction (LVD).
regulation. When examining the link between myocardial abnormalities and environmental exposure, it is also advisable to explore the supportive use of Adverse Outcome Pathway (AOP) approaches to confirm ...
EBoD-FL. Guidelines for mapping the environmental burden of disease in Flanders, 2023
a summary measure that combines both mortality and morbidity. Given the extensive list of potential risk factor-health outcome pairs, a set of priorities was defined in terms of environmental stressors and ...
Exploring the multiple dimensions of perceived food access in the local food environment in Flanders: Perceptions of adults in socioeconomically disadvantaged situations
disadvantaged situations are more susceptible and disproportionally exposed to unhealthy food environments, which results in limited access to healthy foods and poorer dietary outcomes. This qualitative paper ...
Pollutant exposure and myocardial injury: Protocol and progress report for a toxicological systematic mapping review.
key study elements regarding study setup, methodology, techniques, and (qualitative and quantitative) outcomes. Subsequent synthesis will consist of an explorative meta-analysis of possible ...
