The overweight epidemic increasingly hits children of lower educated parents in Belgium
Since the BMI (kg/m²) in children is instable, age/sex-specific cutoff points are used to estimate the weighted prevalence (95% confidence interval) of self-reported overweight (including obesity), by SES ...
The Belgian physiotherapy reimbursement criteria for fall prevention fails in screening appropriately fall-prone community-dwelling older adults
analysis of data collected from a falls-related study in the Department of Rehabilitation Sciences at Ghent University to compare the predictive validity of the two algorithms. Sensitivity, specificity ...
Time series modelling for wastewater-based epidemiology of COVID-19: A nationwide study in 40 wastewater treatment plants of Belgium, February 2021 to June 2022
variability was observed in terms of explaining incident cases. These findings are of practical importance to WBE practitioners and show that the early-warning potential of WBE is WWTP-specific and ...
Interim 2022/23 influenza vaccine effectiveness: six European studies, October 2022 to January 2023.
(sub)type-specific VE was estimated for each study using logistic regression adjusted for potential confounders.ResultsThere were 20,477 influenza cases recruited across the six studies, of which 16,589 (81%) were ...
Humoral and cellular immune correlates of protection against COVID-19 in kidney transplant recipients.
the dominant variants in the general population. Univariate Analyses identified the avidity of SARS-CoV-2 receptor binding domain binding IgG, neutralizing antibodies, and SARS-CoV-2 S2-specific ...
Targeted Chromosomal Barcoding Establishes Direct Genotype-Phenotype Associations for Antibiotic Resistance in Mycobacterium abscessus.
consisting of the specific replacement of the desired mutation in the bacterial chromosome. As surrogate bacteria, we used two M. abscessus bedaquiline-susceptible strains: ATCC 19977 and the SL541 clinical ...
Evaluation of the clinical performance of OncoPredict HPV® SCR assay within the VALGENT‐2 framework
Intra- and interlaboratory reproducibility of the index was evaluated by overall concordance and Cohen’s kappa, using a sub-population (n = 526). Relative sensitivity and specificity for CIN2 + of the ...
Inequalities in mortality associated with housing conditions in Belgium between 1991 and 2020
National Register in Belgium and relative to deaths that occurred between Jan. 1, 1991, and Dec. 31, 2020. Spatial and time-specific housing deprivation indices (1991, 2001, and 2011) were created at the ...
Humoral and cellular immune responses against SARS-CoV-2 after third dose BNT162b2 following double-dose vaccination with BNT162b2 versus ChAdOx1 in cancer patients.
SARS-CoV-2 specific S1 and S2 peptides. RESULTS: Local AE s were more common after heterologous boosting. SARS-CoV-2 anti- S1 IgG antibody levels did not differ significantly between homologous and ...
