Population vulnerability to COVID-19 in Europe: a burden of disease analysis
COVID-19 by using estimates of population age structure and YLD for health conditions linked to severe illness from COVID-19. Methods Population and YLD estimates from GBD 2017 were extracted for 45 ...
Superficial mycoses in Belgium: Burden, costs and antifungal drugs consumption
mycoses in Belgium and to assess trends in associated antifungal consumption. Methods The burden of dermatophytoses (including onychomycosis), as well as skin and genital candidiasis, was estimated using ...
A probabilistic approach for risk-benefit assessment of food substitutions: A case study on substituting meat by fish
individuals. We therefore propose the use of probabilistic methods to model substitution and assess health impact distributions in risk-benefit assessment (RBA) of foods. We investigated the health impact of ...
