Factors influencing SARS-CoV-2 infection rate in Belgian nursing homes’ residents during the first wave of COVID-19 pandemic
more dependent residents (Incidence rate ratio (IRR): 1.97; 95% CI: 1.00-3.86) and higher staff’s infection rate (IRR: 1.89; 95% CI: 1.68- 2.12). No relationship was found between other investigated NH ...
Immunogenicity and one-year boostability of a 3-dose intramuscular rabies pre-exposure prophylaxis schedule in adults receiving immunosuppressive monotherapy: a prospective single-Centre clinical trial.
the study. Early response to PrEP (at day 21-28) was significantly associated with 100% boostability (Odds ratio 51; 95% confidence interval [5.0-6956], p < 0.01). The vaccination schedule was safe ...
Poor timing and failure of source control are risk factors for mortality in critically ill patients with secondary peritonitis.
(< 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 ...
Sex difference in innate inflammatory response and macrophage polarization in Streptococcus agalactiae-induced pneumonia and potential role of microRNA-223-3p.
a higher M1 / M2 ratio in infected males compared with females. Given the importance of the chromosome X-linked microRNA-223-3p (miR-223-3p) in modulating the inflammatory process and macrophage ...
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 ...

interaction. Among the dose ratios studied for both types of combination, a higher synergistic potential was highlighted for FOR / TIO 2:1 (). This was done through three steps by using multiple additions of ...
Epidemiology and age-related mortality in critically ill patients with intra-abdominal infection or sepsis: an international cohort study.
[odds ratio (OR) 1.62, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.21-2.17], middle-old age (OR 1.80, 95% CI 1.35-2.41) and very old age (OR 3.69, 95% CI 2.66-5.12) were independently associated with mortality. Other ...
