The impact of regular school closure on seasonal influenza epidemics: a data-driven spatial transmission model for Belgium.
school-term. Several experimental scenarios are explored to identify the relevant social and behavioral mechanisms. RESULTS: Stochastic numerical simulations show that holidays considerably delay the peak of the ...
The European Web Survey on Drugs: patterns of use of new psychoactive substances in Belgium
cannot be easily monitored by means of the national Health Interview Survey in the general population because it is only held every five years. In addition, the questionnaire on substance use is limited ...
Exploring the added value of Whole Genome Sequencing in routine and pandemic viral surveillance
applications have remained unexploited in the context of routine surveillance, which is the core business of national reference centres and public health institutes such as Sciensano. The virus surveillance aims ...
Airborne transmission of classical swine fever virus under experimental conditions.
compartment C (pen 5). Classical swine fever virus was introduced by the experimental inoculation of one pig in the middle pen (pen 2) of compartment A. The virus infected the pigs in pen 4, following the ...
Pathogenesis of encephalomyocarditis experimental infection in young piglets: a potential animal model to study viral myocarditis.
isolated/detected, although all of them showed mild myocarditis. The experimental infection with EMCV B279 /95 indicates: (i) the experimental protocol mimics the individual variability observed in natural disease, ...
A general approach to identify low-frequency variants within influenza samples collected during routine surveillance.
population at sufficient depths to identify low-frequency variants (LFV) present in a quasispecies, but many challenges remain for reliable LFV detection because of experimental errors introduced during sample ...
Objective understanding of the Nutri-score front-of-pack label by European consumers and its effect on food choices: an online experimental study.
national context. In light of the ongoing efforts to harmonize FoPLs across Europe, this study aimed to compare the effectiveness of five FoPLs (Health Star Rating system, Multiple Traffic Lights, ...
An innovative experimental protocol for the study of electromagnetic hypersensitivity: overview of technical aspects
Source: BioEM2019, 23-28 June 2019, Issue Joint meeting EBEA/BEMS, Montpellier, France (2019) Health Topics: Electromagnetic fields (incl. ionising and non-ionising) Non-ionising radiation Health and ...
Comparative Analysis of Different Serological and Molecular Tests for the Detection of Small Ruminant Lentiviruses (SRLVs) in Belgian Sheep and Goats.
samples and samples from experimentally infected sheep and goats. ELISA s generally performed well and detected seroconversion within three weeks post experimental infection. Two enzyme-linked immunosorbent ...
Dissecting the molecular evolution of fluoroquinolone-resistant Shigella sonnei.
and Europe. Mutation analysis suggests that the clone became dominant through enhanced adaptation to oxidative stress. Experimental evolution reveals that under fluoroquinolone exposure in vitro, ...
