Comparing the applicability of de facto population markers for spatiotemporal trend analysis in wastewater-based epidemiology
analysing human excretion products in wastewater. Here, accurate population normalization is essential to ensure correct exposure estimates. Prior work often assumes a fixed population size, which can lead to ...
Neurocysticercosis Prevalence and Characteristics in Communities of Sinda District in Zambia: A Cross-Sectional Study.
estimated to be 20.1% (95% confidence intervals [CI] 14.6-27.0%). In total, 233 participants received a CT examination (151 TS POC CC + , 82 TS POC CC-). Typical NCC lesions were present in 35/151 (23%) TS ...
Assessing the Differences in Outpatient Antibiotic Consumption Between Reimbursement and Sales Data in Belgium, 2013-2022
Reimbursement data serves as a reliable tool for outpatient AMC monitoring, with only slightly lower estimates than sales data across most J01 subclasses. However, a notable exception is observed with quinolones ...

surveillance of infectious diseases in Europe, we carried out an online survey in April 2024 among medical laboratories in Belgium. The aim was to (i) estimate current diagnostic practices, (ii) assess future ...
Lifestyle predictors of colorectal cancer in European populations: a systematic review
validated in an adult asymptomatic European population, (2) based on non-invasively measured predictors and (3) reported mean estimates and uncertainty for predictors included. To facilitate comparison, ...
Personal characteristics and transmission dynamics associated with SARS-CoV-2 semi-quantitative PCR test results: an observational study from Belgium, 2021-2022.
effectiveness (VE) against a high viral load (≥10 copies/mL) was estimated from the adjusted probabilities. Contact tracing involves the mandatory testing of high-risk exposure contacts (HREC) after contact with ...
Disparities in COVID-19 Vaccination in Belgium
not dramatically change the estimates related to demographic and socio-economic indicators in this case. However, they provide a more accurate description by modelling explicitly part of the variability ...

The burden of antimicrobial resistance in livestock: A framework to estimate its impact within the Global Burden of Animal Diseases programme
inputs needed to estimate the burden of AMU and AMR within this wider envelope of losses. These include information on health expenditure and mortality and morbidity effects related to AMR in livestock. ...
