Daily heart rate characteristics, allergy symptom severity and mood in adults with allergic rhinitis
hours/day). Associations between heart rate characteristics and allergy symptom severity or mood (lag 0-2) were estimated using linear mixed effects regressions, adjusted for potential confounders with a random ...
Validity of self-reported data to assess the prevalence of overweight, hypertension and cholesterol
of the people with a measured hypertension and 22% of the people with a measured high cholesterol are detected. With regressions based on the SR risk factor, age, sex and education, the measured BMI ...
Residential green space in association with the methylation status in a CpG site within the promoter region of the placental serotonin receptor HTR2A
performed multivariate regression models adjusted for several a priori chosen covariables. For an IQR increment in total green space within a 1,000 m, 2,000 m and 3,000 m buffer the methylation of HTR2A ...
Validity of air pollution annoyance to assess long-term exposure to air pollution in Belgium
coefficient, analysis of variance and multivariable ordinal logistic regressions (OLR). Results A significant exposure-response relationship was observed between long term air pollution exposure and ...
Variability in the association between long-term exposure to ambient air pollution and mortality by exposure assessment method and covariate adjustment: A census-based country-wide cohort study
using two exposure methods; Europe-wide hybrid land use regression (LUR) models [100x100m], and Belgium-wide interpolation-dispersion (RIO- IFDM) models [25x25m]. We used Cox proportional hazards models ...
Association between temperature and natural mortality in Belgium: Effect modification by individual characteristics and residential environment
a time-stratified case-crossover design and used conditional logistic regression to examine the association between extreme temperatures and overall natural and cause-specific mortality. City-specific estimates were ...
Air pollution in association with mental and self-rated health and the mediating effect of physical activity
(BC) were estimated at the participants’ residence by a high resolution spatiotemporal model. Multivariate logistic regressions were carried out taking into account a priori selected covariates. Results ...
Mapping abundance distributions of allergenic tree species in urbanized landscapes: A nation-wide study for Belgium using forest inventory and citizen science data
statistical regressions to model the relationships between abundance, the habitat suitability predicted by the SDM s, and additional vegetation cover covariates. The combination of forest inventory data with ...
What triggers selective daily mobility among older adults? A study comparing trip and environmental characteristics between observed path and shortest path.
binomial regression tested associations between detour percentage, trips characteristics and environmental exposures. Detour percentage was higher for walking trips (28%) than car trips (16%). Low-speed ...
In utero exposure to parabens and early childhood BMI z-scores – Associations between placental ethyl paraben, longitudinal BMI trajectories and cord blood metabolic biomarkers
[glucose, insulin, γ-glutamyltransferase (GGT), high-density and low-density lipoprotein (HDL and LDL)] was analyzed in multiple regression models with two different sets of, a priori selected potential ...
