(< 2 h), ‘urgent’ (2-6 h), and ‘delayed’ (> 6 h). Relationships were assessed by logistic regression analysis and reported as odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI). RESULTS: The cohort ...
Tick-Borne Encephalitis Virus Prevalence in Sheep, Wild Boar and Ticks in Belgium.
seroprevalence was 0.42% (2/480, CI 95%: 0.11-1.51) in sheep and 9.27% (7⅞31, CI 95%: 7.48-11.43) in wild boar. TBEV seroprevalence in wild boar from the province of Flemish Brabant was significantly higher ...

province and socioeconomic status (SES) of the school population are presented with their 95% confidence intervals (CI). RESULTS: A total of 59,996 COVID-19 cases were reported in the school surveillance ...
Noninvasive integrative approach applied to children in the context of recent air pollution exposure demonstrates association between fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) and urinary CC16.
analysed. When considering recent (lag1) low level exposure to PM as air pollution measurement, we found that U- CC16 was positively associated with FeNO (β = 0.23; 95% CI [-0.01; 0.47]; p = 0.06) in an ...
A healthy lifestyle is positively associated with mental health and well-being and core markers in ageing
A one-point increment in the lifestyle score was associated with lower odds (ranging from 0.56 to 0.74) for all studied mental health outcomes and with a 1.74% (95% CI: 0.11, 3.40%) longer TL and 4.07% (95% CI ...

The seroprevalence in December 2020 (before vaccination availability) was 15.1% (95% CI 13.5% to 16.6%), increased to 84.2% (95% CI 82.9% to 85.5%) in March 2021 (after vaccination availability) and ...
Genomic epidemiology of persistently circulating MDR Shigella sonnei strains associated with men who have sex with men (MSM) in Belgium (2013–19)
both. Men were at higher risk of carrying a double resistant S. sonnei strain, compared with women (risk ratio = 8.6, 95% CI = 5.4-13.9). Phylogenetic analysis revealed four independent Belgian clusters ...
