Distribution of HCV genotypes in Belgium from 2008 to 2015.
However they are outdated, lack nationwide representativeness or were not conducted in the general population. METHODS: In order to determine the distribution of different circulating HCV genotypes in ...
Welfare-Adjusted Life Years (WALY): A novel metric of animal welfare that combines the impacts of impaired welfare and abbreviated lifespan.
veterinarians (n = 61) was conducted to elicit impaired welfare weights for 35 welfare impediments. Paired comparison was the primary method to elicit weights, whereas visual analogue scale and time trade-off ...
The use of the permanent sample (eps) to study the returnto- work after cancer. Challenges and opportunities for research
though it is necessary to realize the scale of the phenomenon and to plan interventions, no measure allows assessing the rate of return to work among of (ex) cancer patients in Belgium nowadays. METHODS ...
Comparison of SNP-based subtyping workflows for bacterial isolates using WGS data, applied to Salmonella enterica serotype Typhimurium and serotype 1,4,[5],12:i:.
Besides the technological advances which have pushed the approach forward, the last years have been marked by considerable evolution of the whole genome sequencing data analysis methods. Prior to ...
Pre-exposure intradermal rabies vaccination: a non-inferiority trial in healthy adults on shortening the vaccination schedule from 28 to 7 days.
result in wider acceptance. Methods: We conducted a non-inferiority trial in 500 healthy adults comparing the safety and immunogenicity of a two-visit (day 0 and day 7) intradermal (ID) primary vaccination ...
Changes in health in Belgium, 1990-2016: a benchmarking analysis based on the global burden of disease 2016 study
with other European countries. METHODS: We collected results of the Global Burden of Disease 2016 study through the GBD results and visualization tools. We benchmarked Belgian GBD results with the other ...
Orthogonal typing methods identify genetic diversity among Belgian Campylobacter jejuni strains isolated over a decade from poultry and cases of sporadic human illness.
congruence between both typing methods. The discriminatory power of P- BIT and MLST was similar, with Simpson’s diversity indexes of 0.978 and 0.975, respectively. Furthermore, P- BIT could provide additional ...
Decreasing rates of major lower-extremity amputation in people with diabetes but not in those without: a nationwide study in Belgium.
lower-extremity amputations (LEA s) is one of the main goals in diabetes care. Our aim was to estimate annual LEA rates in individuals with and without diabetes in Belgium, and corresponding time trends. METHODS ...
