Multi locus variable-number tandem repeat (MLVA) typing tools improved the surveillance of Salmonella enteritidis: a 6 years retrospective study.
including phage typing, antimicrobial susceptibility testing and MLVA on 1,535 S. Enteritidis isolates collected between 2007 and 2012, was used to evaluate the added value of MLVA for public health ...
Landscape and regional environmental analysis of the spatial distribution of hantavirus human cases in europe.
lower minimum temperature in winter are expected to be more at risk. Climate and forest connectivity have a stronger effect at the regional level. If variables are staying at their current values, the ...
Next-generation sequencing in veterinary medicine: how can the massive amount of information arising from high-throughput technologies improve diagnosis, control, and management of infectious diseases?
studied at the molecular level. Studies have demonstrated the value of NGS technologies for molecular characterization, ranging from metagenomic characterization of unknown pathogens or microbial ...
Role of wildlife and domestic pigs as reservoirs for hepatitis E virus (HEV): study of the infection in suids and cervids and of the susceptibility of pigs to HEV originating from wild boa
as a reference test in a ROC curve analysis. Therefore the ELISA cut-off value was re-evaluated by the ROC curve analysis and different scenarios were analysed. Whatever the scenario, the ...
Identification of rare disease codes in ICD-9-CM and exploration of Belgian Minimal Hospital Data
CM was indispensable due to a higher degree of granularity. We will discuss the mapping methodology, its accuracy and results. In addition, we will illustrate the value of MHD analyses for ...
Serological diagnosis of bovine neosporosis: a Bayesian evaluation of two antibody ELISA tests for in vivo diagnosis in purchased and abortion cattle.
cent-Test B: 86.99 per cent) and specificity (Test A: 90.22 per cent-Test B: 90.15 per cent) were high and comparable (Bayesian P values >0.05). Based on predictive values in the two study populations, ...
How appropriate is therapeutic drug monitoring for lithium? Data from the Belgian external quality assessment scheme.
9.4%). 36.0% of laboratories reported numerical values below their manufacturer cut-off for the blank sample; 16.6% of these laboratories detected residual lithium concentrations. CONCLUSIONS: The present ...
Scop3D: Three-dimensional visualization of sequence conservation36934
https://www.sciensano.be/nl/biblio/scop3d-three-dimensional-visualization-sequence-conservation36934
the Sequence Conservation on Protein 3D structure (scop3D) tool to perform these tasks automatically. The output consists of two modified PDB files in which the B-values for each position are replaced ...
Development and validation of an ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry method to measure creatinine in human urine.
2013 and 2014, respectively. The obtained results were again all within the accepted tolerance ranges and very close to the reference values defined by the organizers of the proficiency test scheme, ...
50 Hz electric and magnetic fields and health: which message to the public?
uncertainty raises numerous questions. In this paper, significant key concepts are described to better understand the potential effects of electric and magnetic fields on health. Everyday life exposure values ...
