Comparison of response rates and cost-effectiveness for a community-based survey: postal, internet and telephone modes with generic or personalised recruitment approaches

Martha Irvine Sinclair, +4 more
- 31 Aug 2012 - 
TL;DR: The findings suggest that postal surveys currently remain the most economic option for population-based studies, with similar costs for personalised and generic approaches.
Journal ArticleDOI

Microbial quality assessment of household greywater

Joanne Elizabeth O'Toole, +6 more
- 01 Sep 2012 - 
TL;DR: Levels of indicator E. coli were highly variable and the presence of E. Escherichia coli was not associated with the existence of human enteric viruses in greywater, and there was little correlation between reported gastrointestinal illness in households and detection of pathogens ingreywater.
Journal ArticleDOI

Disease burden of selected gastrointestinal pathogens in Australia, 2010

Katherine B Gibney, +3 more
- 01 Nov 2014 - 
TL;DR: The pathogen causing the greatest disease burden varied according to the metric used, however DALYs are considered most useful given the incorporation of morbidity, mortality, and sequelae.
Journal ArticleDOI

Maximising response rates in household telephone surveys

Joanne Elizabeth O'Toole, +4 more
- 03 Nov 2008 - 
TL;DR: The use of a combination of approaches, such as an advance letter, interviewer training, establishment of researcher credentials, increasing call attempts and targeted call times, remains a good strategy to maximise telephone response rates.
Journal ArticleDOI

A probabilistic model of norovirus disease burden associated with greywater irrigation of home-produced lettuce in Melbourne, Australia.

S. Fiona Barker, +6 more
- 01 Mar 2013 - 
TL;DR: A quantitative microbial risk assessment model was constructed to estimate the norovirus disease burden associated with consumption of greywater-irrigated lettuce, and recommends the preferential use of bathroom water over laundry water where possible as this would reduce the annual burden of disease.
