Healthcare-Associated Infections and Antimicrobial Use in Belgian Acute Care Hospitals: Results of the 2022 ECDC Point Prevalence Survey
A total of 56 acute care hospital sites participated, encompassing 10,142 patients. The 2022 survey revealed that 9.2% (95% confidence interval (CI): 8.7-9.8%) of patients had at least one HAI. This ...

preventive measures upon observing mosquitoes in and around the house (cues to action, 5.3/7.0). Participants had limited confidence in finding information on preventive measures and in recognizing and ...
The overweight epidemic increasingly hits children of lower educated parents in Belgium
Since the BMI (kg/m²) in children is instable, age/sex-specific cutoff points are used to estimate the weighted prevalence (95% confidence interval) of self-reported overweight (including obesity), by SES ...

spectra. Overall, using a random forest model with several confidence criteria (samples by triplicate and similarity values >60%), a total of 96.5% of isolates were correctly identified at the subspecies ...
Evaluation of the clinical performance of OncoPredict HPV® SCR assay within the VALGENT‐2 framework
index versus comparator were 1.01 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.99-1.03) and 1.02 (95% CI: 1.0-1.04), respectively. Noninferiority p values were all ≤0.05, except for CIN3 + in patients ≥30 years. ...
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 ...
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 ...
