The impact of individual-level heterogeneity on estimated infectious disease burden: a simulation study.
long natural histories were run assuming either “population-averaged” progression probabilities between disease stages, or progression probabilities that were influenced by an a priori defined ...
Detection of false negative Pap smears by rapid reviewing. A metaanalysis.
workload, it would yield, on average, 4.7 times fewer extra positives, 5.6 times fewer SIL and 7.9 times fewer high grade SIL in comparison with RR of all sides. CONCLUSION: RR of all smears initially ...
Simultaneous surface display and cargo loading of encapsulin nanocompartments and their use for rational vaccine design.
reporter protein (GFP) into the internal cavity. Characterization of the nanoparticles by electronic microscopy confirmed homogenously shaped particles of 24 nm diameter in average. The results further show ...

Global patterns in monthly activity of influenza virus, respiratory syncytial virus, parainfluenza virus, and metapneumovirus: a systematic analysis.
which we calculated monthly annual average percentage (AAP) as the relative strength of virus activity. We defined duration of epidemics as the minimum number of months to account for 75% of annual ...
Cost-DALY comparison of hip replacement care in 12 Belgian hospitals
institutions, the average cost (SD) of a stay being €8013 (€4304). Our model allowed us to identify hospitals with observed values higher than those predicted. Out of the 12 hospitals evaluated, 4 need to reduce ...

little is known about the consumption of ED s among pupils in Africa. This study was designed to assess the consumption of ED s among pupils between 10 and 17 years of age and to assess average caffeine ...
Real-World Comparative Effectiveness of SARS-CoV-2 Primary Vaccination Campaigns Against SARS-CoV-2 Infections: A Federated Observational Study Emulating a Target Trial in Three Nations
vaccination extended the mean time until contracting a SARS-CoV-2 infection on average by 35.9 (95% CI [34.9 — 37.0]), 59.6 (95% CI [59.3 — 60.0]), and 1.6 (95% CI [1.1 — 2.0]) days over 365 days in the ...
The incremental healthcare cost associated with cancer in Belgium: A registry-based data analysis
in 2018. Average attributable costs of cancer were computed via matching of cases (patients with cancer by site) and controls (patients without cancer). Years of life lost due to disability (YLD) were ...
