Measuring disability: a systematic review of the validity and reliability of the Global Activity Limitations Indicator (GALI).
GALI as inclusive one question instrument fits all conceptual characteristics specified for a global measure on participation restriction. In none of the studies, included in the review, there was ...
Decreasing rates of major lower-extremity amputation in people with diabetes but not in those without: a nationwide study in Belgium.
amputation rate (first per year) in the populations with and without diabetes for major and minor LEA s, and the corresponding relative risks. To test for time trends, Poisson regression models were fitted ...
How do social security schemes and labor market policies support the return-to-work of cancer survivors? A review article
frameworks set up in EU Member States that support the retention and integration of workers with disability. Furthermore, we look at these initiatives or measures to see whether they fit the specific needs of ...
Burden of salmonellosis, campylobacteriosis and listeriosis: a time series analysis, Belgium, 2012 to 2020.
(DALY s). The salmonellosis time series was fitted with a Bai and Perron two-breakpoint model, while a dynamic linear model was used for campylobacteriosis and a Poisson autoregressive model for ...
Evaluation of 16 commercial antibody ELISAs for the detection of bovine viral diarrhea virus-specific antibodies in serum and milk using well-characterized sample panels.
p.1040638717724839 (2017) Abstract: We performed a thorough fit-for-purpose evaluation of commercial ELISA s for the detection of bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV)-specific antibodies in serum and in milk by testing ...
Attenuation of RNA viruses by redirecting their evolution in sequence space.
significant losses in viral fitness. In vivo, the viruses were attenuated, generated high levels of neutralizing antibodies and protected against lethal challenge. Our study demonstrates that cornering viruses ...
Positive epistasis of major low-cost drug resistance mutations rpoB531-TTG and katG315-ACC depends on the phylogenetic background of Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains.
47/185; P <0.0001). To conclude, a combination of the known low-fitness-cost rpoB531-TTG and katG315-ACC mutations likely facilitates the increased transmission ability of MDR strains of the modern but ...
Incorporation of the influenza A virus NA segment into virions does not require cognate non-coding sequences.
substitutions in the 3' NC region were detected. With shorter sequences, insertions were observed in the 5' NC region. Restoration of viral fitness was linked to restoration of the NA ...
Contribution of chronic conditions to functional limitations using a multinomial outcome: results for the older population in Belgium and Brazil
conditions, depression, chronic respiratory diseases, and cancer – were included in the analysis. Separate multinomial additive hazards models by gender for each country were fitted. Results The prevalence of ...
The added value of food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) information to estimate the usual food intake based on repeated 24-hour recalls
corresponding percentile of the simulated “true” usual intake (g/day). The closer the ratio is to one, the better the model fits the data. Results Inclusion of the FFQ information to identify the never-consumers ...
