EBoD-FL. Guidelines for mapping the environmental burden of disease in Flanders
to tackle the objective of EB oD- FL and to apply the CRA methodology to the stressors that are prioritized. Additionally, possibilities for the application of the results for evidence-based policy are ...
Clinical characteristics and management of neurocysticercosis patients: a retrospective assessment of case reports from Europe.
clinical and radiological information on each case, if available. RESULTS: Out of 293 identified NCC cases, 59% of patients presented initially with epileptic seizures (21% focal onset); 52% presented with ...
HPV-based Cervical Cancer Screening on Self-samples in the Netherlands: Challenges to Reach Women and Test Performance Questions.
Although population differences may partially explain these results, self-samples may have been too dilute, thereby reducing the analytic and clinical sensitivity. The Dutch findings demonstrate the ...
Predicting the severity of the grass pollen season and the effect of climate change in Northwest Europe
guidance addressing these questions. We propose two previously unexplored approaches for forecasting the severity of the grass pollen season on the basis of statistical and mechanistic models. The results ...
Burden of disease among older adults in Europe-trends in mortality and disability, 1990-2019
diseases and injuries. RESULTS: Between 1990 and 2019, the crude numbers of DALY s for all causes increased substantially among older Western Europeans. In Eastern Europe, the absolute DALY s also increased ...
Environmental degradation and the increasing burden of allergic disease: The need to determine the impact of nitrogen pollution
Environmental Pollution epidemiology Nitrogen deposition Pollen allergy respiratory health Abstract: Allergic diseases are a major public health problem and their burden is expected to keep increasing as a result ...
Burden of infectious disease studies in Europe and the United Kingdom: a review of methodological design choices
increased over time. Development and use of guidelines will promote performing burden of infectious disease studies and facilitate comparability of the results. Health Topics: Burden of disease Fardeau de la ...
Attributing long-term changes in airborne birch and grass pollen concentrations to climate change and vegetation dynamics
airborne birch pollen concentrations with ∼6%. In contrast, the grass pollen production dynamics resulted into ∼10 times less grass pollen over the studied period compared to climate change effects. ...
Forecasting Birch Pollen Levels in Belgium: First Analysis of the 2021 Season
developed for Belgium. Here we show the preliminary results of the forecast set-up for Belgium using the CTM SILAM (System for Integrated modelling of Atmospheric composition, http://silam.fmi.fi) driven by ...
Aluminium intake through the consumption of selected baby foods and risk characterization in a population of Brazilian infants aged 0 to 36 months
In addition, distributions were fitted on the concentration and consumption data for further probabilistic intake estimations. The results corroborated well with the deterministic approach. The highest ...
