Association between temperature and natural mortality in Belgium: Effect modification by individual characteristics and residential environment

daily temperature, respectively, with the minimum mortality temperature. For cold, we cumulated the risk over lags of 0 to 28 days before death and 0 to 7 days for heat. We carried out stratified analyses ...

Epidemiologic surveillance of COVID-19 deaths was accurately conducted during the epidemic and it is even likely that COVID-19 deaths were underreported during the ascending phases of excess mortality by 1,193 ...

Residing in urban areas with higher green space is associated with lower mortality risk: A census-based cohort study with ten years of follow-up

most but not all studied causes of death in a large representative cohort for the five largest urban areas in Belgium. These findings support the importance of the availability of residential green space ...

Heat related mortality in the two largest Belgian urban areas: A time series analysis

relationship between daily temperature and mortality above the threshold was investigated using a generalized estimated equation with Poisson distribution to finally determine the percentage of deaths ...

Neonatal factors predictive for respiratory and gastro-intestinal morbidity after esophageal atresia repair.

death. We used linear models with a binomial distribution to determine risk factors for gastro-intestinal or respiratory complicated evolution and a backward stepwise elimination procedure to reduce models ...

Heat and health in Antwerp under climate change: Projected impacts and implications for prevention.

near future (24.1deaths/year CI 95%: 6.78-41.94) and by a factor of 4.5 in the far future (60.38deaths/year CI 95%: 17.00-105.11). Under a heat acclimatization scenario, mortality does not increase ...
