Detecting cervical precancer and reaching underscreened women by using HPV testing on self samples: updated meta-analyses.
underscreened women than sending invitations. However, since response rates are highly variable among settings, pilots should be set up before regional or national roll out of self sampling strategies. Health ...
Quality of primary palliative care for older people with mild and severe dementia: an international mortality follow-back study using quality indicators.
investigated the overall quality of primary palliative care for older people with dementia in three different countries. Design/setting: a mortality follow-back survey through nation- and region ...
Global burden of late-stage chronic kidney disease resulting from dietary exposure to cadmium, 2015
Cadmium-related incidence rate, calculated as the change in the prevalence during a one-year period, were used to compute the mortality and DALY in all WHO regions. It is estimated that dietary cadmium would result ...

Application of whole genome data for in silico evaluation of primers and probes routinely employed for the detection of viral species by RT-qPCR using dengue virus as a case study.
real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) directed against genomic regions conserved between different isolates. Genetic variation can however result in mismatches of primers and probes with their ...

Genetic Basis and Clonal Population Structure of Antibiotic Resistance in Isolated From Broiler Carcasses in Belgium.
quinolone resistance determining region (QRDR) of the gene, while isolates resistant to tetracycline were screened for the presence of the gene. These resistance determinants were observed in most but not all ...
