Invasion by the Alien Tree Alters Ecosystem Functions in a Temperate Deciduous Forest
indigenous tree species,exhibited higher foliar N (+24.0%), foliar P (+50.7%), and lower foliar C:N (-22.4%) and N:P (-10.1%) ratios.affected foliar nutrient contents of co-occuring indigenous tree species ...
Effect of residual doxycycline concentrations on resistance selection and transfer in porcine commensal escherichia coli.
transconjugants were enumerated after 24h and 48h. The tet(A) carrying plasmids showed genetic backbones that are also present among human E. coli isolates. Ratios of resistant to susceptible bacteria were ...
Does air pollution trigger suicide? A case-crossover analysis of suicide deaths over the life span.
applied conditional logistic regression models adjusted for duration of sunshine and day of the week to obtain odds ratios (OR) and their 95% CI for an increase of 10 µg/m(3) in pollutant concentrations ...
Income-related inequality in smoking cessation among adult patients with cardiovascular disease: a 5-year follow-up of an angiography intervention in Luxembourg.
ratio (OR) = 2.8; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.3-6.1 and OR = 2.8; 95% CI, 1.2-6.5, respectively. In the full model with an interaction term, quitting smoking was only associated with income when ...
Clinical and laboratory features of the most common Clostridium difficile ribotypes isolated in Belgium.
However, after adjusting for age, onset outside the hospital and recurrence, R027 was no longer associated with complications [odds ratio (OR) 1.3, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.7-2.4], unlike R078 (OR 1.7, ...
Trends in educational inequalities in premature mortality in Belgium between the 1990s and the 2000s: the contribution of specific causes of deaths.
aged 25-64, followed up for 5 years. Age-standardised mortality rates (ASMR) were computed by educational level (EL) and cause. Inequalities were measured through rate differences (RD s), rate ratios (RR ...
Educational inequalities in premature mortality by region in the Belgian population in the 2000s
rate differences (RD), rate ratios (RR), and population attributable fractions (PAF) were computed in the 3 regions of Belgium and compared with pairwise regional ratios. The global PAF s were also ...
The added value of food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) information to estimate the usual food intake based on repeated 24-hour recalls
The usual intake distribution from the new database was obtained by modeling the 24-h recalls with SPADE, once without and once with the inclusion of the FFQ data on the never-consumers. Ratios were ...
Immediate referral to colposcopy versus cytological surveillance for low-grade cervical cytological abnormalities in the absence of HPV test: A systematic review and a meta-analysis of the literature.
default rates during follow-up. Pooled risk ratios (RR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated using a random-effect model and with inverse variance weighting. Interstudy heterogeneity was ...
Letter to the editor: New metrics to monitor progress towards global HIV targets: using the estimated number of undiagnosed HIV-infected individuals as denominator.
people living with HIV (PLHIV); the ratio of both numbers forms the undiagnosed fraction, providing information on the first of the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV / AIDS (UNAIDS) 90–90–90 global ...
