Différences de mortalité par Covid-19 : conséquence des imperfections et de la diversité des systèmes de collecte des do...
L’urgence que représente la pandémie de COVID‑19 a entraîné des différences considérables entre les processus de collecte des données des pays, qui s’efforcent tous de produire des informations en temps réel mais qui restent des statistiques de mortalité imparfaites.

Differences in COVID‑19 Mortality: Implications of Imperfect and Diverse Data Collection Systems
The worldwide COVID‑19 emergency has led to substantial variations in the data collection process across countries scrambling to produce real-time information, resulting in imperfect mortality statistics. To address this problem, we analyze COVID‑19 death counts from the Demography of COVID‑19 Deaths database (https://dc-covid.site.ined.fr/en/) and...
Evaluation of the Cancer Transition Theory in the US, Select European Nations, and Japan by Investigating Mortality of I...
Importance Despite cancer being a leading cause of death worldwide, scant research has been carried out on the validity of the cancer transition theory, the idea that as nations develop, they move from a situation where infectious-related cancers are prominent to one where noninfectious-related cancers dominate. Objective To examine whether cancer ...

Women increased their time in paid work and reduced time in unpaid activities, while men increased their time in unpaid work, but not enough to compensate for women's retreat.

Genetic diversity of maize landraces from the South-West of France
...
From the 17th century until the arrival of hybrids in 1960s, maize landraces were cultivated in the South-West of France (SWF), a traditional region for maize cultivation. A set of landraces were collected in this area between the 1950s and 1980s and were then conserved ex situ in a germplam collection. Previous studies using molecular markers on a...
European countries with delayed childbearing are not those with lower fertility
Published in Genus
At the individual level, a very strong negative relationship is observed between age at first birth and total number of children. However, at the country level, it is possible that no relationship exists between factors that reduce fertility at younger ages and stimulate it at older ages. Hence, across countries, the size of the decline in youth fe...
Type 2 inflammatory shift in chronic rhinosinusitis during 2007-2018 in Belgium
Objectives/Hypothesis Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a heterogenic disease with different inflammatory patterns depending on the presence (CRSwNP) or absence (CRSsNP) of polyps and geographical location. A shift toward type 2 endotype has been seen in Asia. We aim to investigate whether there has been type 2 shift in Belgium and to further endotyp...
