  • Food source atribution of human campylobacteriosis by meta-analysis of case-control studies
    Publication . Rodrigues, Vânia; Cadavez, Vasco; Kooh, Pauline; Moez, Sanna; Gonzales-Barron, Ursula; Rodrigues, Vânia
    A case-control study is a powerful approach among epidemiologists to investigate the causal effect of exposure and enteric illness. To combine the associations between sporadic campylobacteriosis and the different food pathways of exposure, the results from relevant case-control studies were extracted and their odds-ratio (OR) measures were meta-analysed within food category partitions by population type, extracting the variability due to both primary studies and model types. In the mixed population, the most important determinants of disease turned out to be: consumption of raw milk (pooted OR=2. 64), poultry (OR=1. 78), raw milk's cheese (OR=1. 72), BBQ meats (OR=1. 67), fast-food composite (OR=1. 59) and raw seafood (OR=1. 50). On the other hand, consumption of raw-egg containing products (OR=4. 85), raw milk (OR=3. 05), pork (OR=2. 34), minced beef (OR=2.27), processed meats (OR=2.18), any composite food eaten out (OR=2.16) and poultry meat (OR=2.08) were found to bear the highest risk of campylobacteriosis in the children population.

  • Pathogens-in-foods: a database of occurrence of microbial hazerds in foods commercialised in Europe
    Publication . Deusdado, Sérgio; Cadavez, Vasco; Rodrigues, Vânia; Kooh, Pauline; Moez, Sanna; Gonzales-Barron, Ursula; Rodrigues, Vânia
    The objective of this study was to build a database of the occurrence (both prevalence and counts) of the most important biological hazards in foods commercialised in Europe. For this, systematic literature searches were first conducted for every pathogen; namely, Salmonella, Campylobacter, Shigatoxin-producing Escherichia co//, Listería monocytogenes, Yersinia enterocolitica, Bacillus cereus, Clostridium perfringens, Staphylococcus aureus, Toxoplasma gondií, norovirus, Hepatitis A vírus, Hepatitis E virus, Cryptosporidium ana Giardia duodenalis; and after screening for relevance and methodological quality assessment, data were carefully extracted from the primary studies into a harmonised arrangement consisting of primary study characteristics, food characteristics ana stage within the food chain, microbiological methods, prevalence results, enumeration results and potential for bias. Based on the microbiological survey results extracted from 977 primary studies, the database Pathogens-ln-Foods hás been constructed to facilitate data access and retrieval according to hazard, food class, country or any other relevant variable, with the ability to execute simple statistical calculations.
