Nursing home residents with suspected urinary tract infections: a diagnostic accuracy study

The combined nitrite and leucocyte esterase urine dipstick test (one or both positive) had a 96.0% negative predictive value (95% CI: 80.5-99.3%). The sensitivity of a positive CRP test (≥ 5 mg/L) was ...

Measuring disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) due to COVID-19 in Scotland, 2020

certificates. We calculated DALY s based on the COVID-19 consensus model and methods outlined by the European Burden of Disease Network. DALY s were presented as a range, using a sensitivity analysis based on ...

Assessing the burden of Taenia solium cysticercosis in Burundi, 2020

calculate the 95% uncertainty interval (UI) for each parameter and perform sensitivity analyses. Results. In Burundi, 4.26 million USD (95% UI, 1,858,308–8,190,951) were estimated as economic impact due to T. ...

Strategy and Performance Evaluation of Low-Frequency Variant Calling for SARS-CoV-2 Using Targeted Deep Illumina Sequencing

approach and Illumina sequencing. As anticipated, higher variation and lower sensitivity were observed at lower coverages and allelic frequencies. We found that detection of all low-frequency variants at an ...

Reliability of Morphological and PCR Methods for the Official Diagnosis of Aethina tumida (Coleoptera: Nitidulidae): A European Inter-Laboratory Comparison.

Reference Laboratories in Europe participated in the study and analysed 12 samples with adult coleopterans and insect larvae. The performance of the laboratories was evaluated in terms of sensitivity and ...

In Vivo Kinetics and Biotransformation of Aflatoxin B1 in Dairy Cows Based on the Establishment of a Reliable UHPLC-MS/MS MethodDataSheet1.docx

successfully validated by the determination of linearity (R2  ≥ 0.990), sensitivity (lower limit of quantification, 0.1–0.2 ng ml−1), recovery (79.5–111.2%), and precision relative standard deviation (RSD) ...

Retrospective evaluation of routine whole genome sequencing of Mycobacterium tuberculosis at the Belgian National Reference Center, 2019.

MTB strains analyzed in 2019 (n = 306). RESULTS: In all cases, the WGS-based procedure was able to identify correctly the MTB species. Compared to MGIT drug susceptibility testing (DST), the sensitivity ...

Strategy to Develop and Evaluate a Multiplex RT-ddPCR in Response to SARS-CoV-2 Genomic Evolution.

such as specificity, sensitivity and applicability. Therefore, a duplex reverse-transcription droplet digital PCR (RT-ddPCR) method was evaluated in silico by using 154 489 whole-genome sequences of ...
