Trends in socioeconomic inequalities in cause-specific premature mortality in Belgium, 1998-2019 KU Leuven Universiteit Hasselt Vrije Universiteit Brussel
BACKGROUND: Higher levels of socioeconomic deprivation have been consistently associated with increased risk of premature mortality, but a detailed analysis by causes of death is lacking in Belgium. We aim to investigate the association between area deprivation and all-cause and cause-specific premature mortality in Belgium over the period 1998-2019. METHODS: We used the 2001 and 2011 Belgian Indices of Multiple Deprivation to assign statistical ...
Impacts of zoning and landscape structure on the relative abundance of wild boar assessed through a Bayesian N-mixture model Instituut voor Natuur- en Bosonderzoek Universiteit Hasselt
The impact of high versus standard enteral protein provision on functional recovery following intensive care admission Vrije Universiteit Brussel Universiteit Hasselt
BACKGROUND: The PRECISe trial is a pragmatic, multicenter randomized controlled trial that evaluates the effect of high versus standard enteral protein provision on functional recovery in adult, mechanically ventilated critically ill patients. The current protocol presents the rationale and analysis plan for an evaluation of the primary and secondary outcomes under the Bayesian framework, with an emphasis on clinically important effect ...
Black carbon particles in human breast milk: assessing infant's exposure KU Leuven Universiteit Hasselt Vrije Universiteit Brussel Universiteit Antwerpen
A Pregnancy and Childhood Epigenetics Consortium (PACE) meta-analysis highlights potential relationships between birth order and neonatal blood DNA methylation KU Leuven Universiteit Hasselt
Higher birth order is associated with altered risk of many disease states. Changes in placentation and exposures to in utero growth factors with successive pregnancies may impact later life disease risk via persistent DNA methylation alterations. We investigated birth order with Illumina DNA methylation array data in each of 16 birth cohorts (8164 newborns) with European, African, and Latino ancestries from the Pregnancy and Childhood ...

Automatic Accident Detection System Using IoT Compared to the Systems that a Traffic Centre Uses for Accident Detection Universiteit Hasselt
In recent years, vehicle traffic has become a major issue with a significant increase in the number of vehicles, leading to congestion on urban roads and motorways. This has resulted in an increase in accidents, causing more injuries and fatalities. There are many steps in managing an accident, it can be said assuring that one of the most important steps is the rapid detection of the incident and its exact location. Quick and accurate ...
Acute sleep loss impairs object but not spatial pattern separation in humans Universiteit Hasselt
Pattern separation allows us to form discrete representations of information in memory. Pattern separation can be measured in several domains including spatial and object-based discrimination. The brain area largely involved in this process is the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus, which has been shown to be particularly sensitive to the effects of sleep loss. However, methodology in rodent and human studies varies greatly making translational ...
STASISM: A Versatile Serious Gaming Multi-Sensor Platform for Personalized Telerehabilitation and Telemonitoring Universiteit Hasselt
Telemonitoring and telerehabilitation have shown promise in delivering individualized healthcare remotely. We introduce STASISM, a sensor-based telerehabilitation and telemonitoring system, in this work. This platform has been created to facilitate individualized telerehabilitation and telemonitoring for those who need rehabilitation or ongoing monitoring. To gather and analyze pertinent and validated physiological, kinematic, and environmental ...
