Towards a unified classification for human respiratory syncytial virus genotypes.
regarding the criteria that define HRSV genotypes and their nomenclature, challenging data comparisons between research groups. In this study, we aim to unify the field of HRSV genotype classification by ...
The burden of legionnaires' disease in Belgium, 2013 to 2017.
corresponds to 71.96 (95% UI: 39.33-109.75) DALY s per 100,000 persons. Conclusions: This analysis revealed a considerable burden of LD in Belgium that is vastly underestimated by surveillance data. Comparison ...
Development of a genoserotyping system for the identification of Salmonella serotypes
a number of 100 genomes used for comparisons) and bioinformatics tools such as Gegenees and BioNumerics. This marker selection was particularly complex for the detection of the heterogeneous population of S. ...
Risk assessment of ochratoxin A in food
ng/kg bw per day in average/high breast milk consuming infants, respectively. Comparison of exposures with the BMDL10 based on the non‐neoplastic endpoint resulted in MOE s of more than 200 in most ...
Modelling for Taenia solium control strategies beyond 2020
steps involved in improving confidence in the predictive capacities of existing mathematical and computational models on T. solium transmission, including model comparison, refinement, calibration and ...
The burden of legionnaires’ disease in Belgium, 2013 to 2017
revealed a considerable burden of LD in Belgium that is vastly underestimated by surveillance data. Comparison with other European DALY estimates underlines the impact of the used data sources and ...

Estimates of the 2015 global and regional disease burden from four foodborne metals- arsenic, cadmium, lead and methylmercury
O'Leary; Brecht Devleesschauwer Source: Environ Res, Volume 174, Number 194 (2019) Abstract: The impact of foodborne metals on the burden of disease has been largely overlooked, in comparison to the ...
Bigger and Better? Representativeness of the Influenza A Surveillance Using One Consolidated Clinical Microbiology Laboratory Data Set as Compared to the Belgian Sentinel Network of Laboratories.
estimated equally as effectively from only just one centralized CML serving the wider Brussels area (LHUB- ULB). The overall comparison reveals that there is a close correlation and representativeness of the ...
