How to Deal with Uninformed and Poorly Informed Opinions of Citizens? A Critical Approach to Online Public Engagement
Genomics public engagement uninformed opinion Abstract: Public engagement is increasingly recognized as a mutual learning of perspectives between lay and expert stakeholders. Still, the intention to educate ...
A genomic appraisal of invasive Salmonella Typhimurium and associated antibiotic resistance in sub-Saharan Africa.
Drug Resistance, Microbial Genomics Humans Salmonella Infections Salmonella typhimurium Abstract: Invasive non-typhoidal Salmonella (iNTS) disease manifesting as bloodstream infection with high mortality ...
Genomic monitoring of SARS-CoV-2 variants using sentinel SARI hospital surveillance.
surveillance of SARS-CoV-2 using SARI sentinel surveillance has proven to accurately reflect VOC s detected in the population and provides a cost-effective solution for long-term genomic monitoring of ...
Lumpy Skin Disease Virus Genome Sequence Analysis: Putative Spatio-Temporal Epidemiology, Single Gene versus Whole Genome Phylogeny and Genomic Evolution.
a whole-genome-sequence (WGS)-based phylogeny and compared it with single-gene-based phylogenies. To study population and spatiotemporal patterns in greater detail, we reconstructed networks. We determined that there are ...
A global genomic analysis of Salmonella Concord reveals lineages with high antimicrobial resistance in Ethiopia.
The evolution and geographical distribution of S. Concord remained unclear. Here, we provide a genomic overview of the population structure and antimicrobial resistance (AMR) of S. Concord by analysing ...
Homologous versus heterologous prime-boost COVID-19 vaccination: impact on clinical severity of Omicron among hospitalized COVID-19 patients in Belgium
systems and administrative sources were leveraged to estimate a causal effect. A Directed Acyclic Graph was formalized to identify confounding factors. The target population consisted of adult COVID-19 ...
Development of a Droplet Digital PCR to Monitor SARS-CoV-2 Omicron Variant BA.2 in Wastewater Samples
in the Brussels-Capital Region which covers a population of more than 1.2 million inhabitants. The in silico analysis showed that more than 99% of the BA.2 genomes could be characterized using the T19I ...
Assessment of the Feasibility of a Future Integrated Larger-Scale Epidemiological Study to Evaluate Health Risks of Air Pollution Episodes in Children.
larger-scale studies, which is critical for the development of policies or measures at the population level. Service: Risques chimiques et physiques pour la santé Chemische en fysische gezondheidsrisico's ...
Population Analysis of O26 Shiga Toxin-Producing Causing Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome in Italy, 1989-2020, Through Whole Genome Sequencing.
this study we describe the genomic characterization and population structure of 144 O26 STEC strains isolated from human sources in Italy in the period 1989-2020. A total of 89 strains belonged to ST21, ...
Clinical Severity of SARS-CoV-2 Omicron Variant Compared with Delta among Hospitalized COVID-19 Patients in Belgium during Autumn and Winter Season 2021-2022.
from national COVID-19 registries. The study population consisted of 954 COVID-19 patients (of which, 445 were infected with Omicron) above 18 years old admitted to a Belgian hospital during the autumn ...
