Journal ArticleDOI
Presence of Antimicrobial Resistance and Antimicrobial Use in Sows Are Risk Factors for Antimicrobial Resistance in Their Offspring
Benedicte Callens,Christel Faes,Dominiek Maes,Boudewijn Catry,Filip Boyen,Delphine Francoys,Ellen de Jong,Freddy Haesebrouck,Jeroen Dewulf +8 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that antimicrobial use in sows and piglets is a risk factor for antimicrobial resistance in the respective animals.
Journal ArticleDOI
European surveillance of Antimicrobial consumption (ESAC): outpatient macrolide, lincosamide and streptogramin (MLS) use in Europe (1997-2009)
Niels Adriaenssens,Samuel Coenen,Ann Versporten,Arno Muller,Girma Minalu,Christel Faes,Vanessa Vankerckhoven,Marc Aerts,Niel Hens,Niel Hens,Geert Molenberghs,Geert Molenberghs,Herman Goossens +12 more
TL;DR: The observed differences between European countries in the levels of MLS use and the extreme seasonal variations in their use suggest that this subgroup of antibiotics is still prescribed inappropriately in many countries.
Journal ArticleDOI
Eight years of the Great Influenza Survey to monitor influenza-like illness in Flanders.
TL;DR: The GIS is a useful additional surveillance network for ILI monitoring in Flanders because of the speed at which information is available and the fact that data is gathered directly in the community at an individual level.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification of risk factors for the prevalence and persistence of Salmonella in Belgian broiler chicken flocks
Harriet Namata,Sarah Welby,Marc Aerts,Christel Faes,José Cortiñas Abrahantes,Hein Imberechts,Katie Vermeersch,J. Hooyberghs,Estelle Méroc,Koen Mintiens +9 more
TL;DR: There are many factors that influence Salmonella risk in broiler flocks, and that they interact, and it is indicated that accounting for interactions between risk factors leads to an improved determination of those risk factors that increase infection with Salmonellosis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Establishing the spread of bluetongue virus at the end of the 2006 epidemic in Belgium.
E. Méroc,Christel Faes,Cécile Herr,Christoph Staubach,Bart Verheyden,T. Vanbinst,F. Vandenbussche,J. Hooyberghs,Marc Aerts,K. De Clercq,Koen Mintiens +10 more
TL;DR: The case detection system based on clinical suspicion underestimated the real impact of the BT epidemic, but indicated an accurate spatial distribution of the virus at the end of the epidemic.
