ObjectiveAlthough medical providers are a trusted vaccination information source for parents, they do not universally support vaccination. Complementary medicine (CM) providers are particularly likely to hold vaccine hesitant (VH) views, and VH parents often consult with them. Little research compares VH of parents and providers, and if and how each is associated with uptake of recommended childhood vaccines.MethodsWe defined non-timely receipt as recommended vaccines given > 1 month later than officially recommended, based on vaccination records. We administered versions of the Parent Attitudes about Childhood Vaccines (PACV) 5-item survey instrument to 1256 parents and their children’s pediatricians (N = 112, 40 CM-oriented, 72 biomedical [not CM-oriented]) to identify moderately (PACV-score 5–6) and highly (PACV-score 7+) hesitant providers/parents. We obtained multivariable adjusted odds ratios to test relationships between parental VH and provider type/VH, and between non-timely receipt of selected childhood vaccines and parental VH and provider type/VH.ResultsNo biomedical providers were VH, 9 CM providers were moderately VH, and 17 were highly VH. Parents seeing moderately and highly hesitant providers had adjusted odds ratio (AOR) for being VH = 6.6 (95% confidence interval (CI), 3.1–14.0) and AOR = 31.3 (95% CI 16.8–58.3), respectively. Across all vaccine uptake endpoints, children of moderately and highly hesitant parents had 1.9–3.8 and 7.1–12.3 higher odds of non-timely vaccination, and children seeing highly hesitant CM providers had 4.9–9.4 higher odds. Children seeing moderately hesitant CM providers had 3.3 higher odds of non-timely vaccination for the 1st dose of measles and 3.5 higher odds for 1st dose of polio/pertussis/tetanus.ConclusionVH by both parents and providers each is associated with non-timely childhood vaccination. As VH parents are more likely to consult with VH providers, interventions aimed at increasing timely vaccination need to primarily target VH providers and their clients. 相似文献

BackgroundIn the Danish childhood vaccination program, the human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination coverage is lower than for other vaccines. To tailor a targeted HPV vaccination effort, we aimed to identify girls in Denmark with lower first dose HPV vaccination coverage than girls in general.MethodsA population-based retrospective cohort study was performed of girls born in 2001–2004, residing in Denmark in September 2019 (N = 128,351). Data from the Danish Vaccination Register was linked to sociodemographic data from the Danish Civil Registration System and Statistics Denmark. Cox's proportional hazard regression models were used to compare vaccination uptake rates between subgroups of girls.ResultsHPV vaccination coverage at 14 years of age varied widely by municipality (53.4–80.6%). Girls living with neither of their parents had a lower chance of being vaccinated compared to girls living with both their parents (HR 0.43; 95% CI 0.41–0.46), likewise for girls attending special need education compared with girls attending public schools (HR 0.50; 95% CI 0.42–0.59). The vaccination uptake among immigrants was lower compared to Danish-born girls (HR 0.51; 95% CI 0.49–0.54), especially among immigrant girls whose parents had not passed any Danish exams. Finally, girls who were DTaP-IPV revaccinated had a 50% greater chance of being HPV vaccinated compared to girls who were not (HR 1.61; 95% CI 1.58–1.64).ConclusionTo increase the HPV vaccination uptake, we recommend vaccination efforts targeting girls living without any of their parents, girls attending special need education, immigrants, and girls who are not DTaP-IPV revaccinated. When targeting immigrants, the effort should focus on disseminating sufficient and understandable information about the Danish childhood vaccination program to the parents. 相似文献

BackgroundInfluenza increases stillbirth risk, morbidity and mortality in pregnant women. Vaccination protects pregnant women against severe disease and indirectly protects their infants, but coverage among pregnant women remains low worldwide. We aimed to describe knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) regarding seasonal influenza vaccination among postpartum women and prenatal care physicians in Costa Rica.MethodsWe conducted cross-sectional KAP surveys to women one to three days after childbirth at Costa Rican Social Security Fund maternity hospitals, and obstetricians and general practitioners who provided prenatal care in 2017. Principal components analysis, multiple imputation, and logistic regression were used to examine associations between influenza vaccination and demographics, prenatal care, and sources of information—separately for postpartum women and physicians. We also held two focus groups of six healthcare workers each to further describe vaccination KAP.ResultsWe surveyed 642 postpartum women and 146 physicians in maternity hospitals in five Costa Rican provinces of whom 85.5 % (95 % CI: 82.6 %-88.0 %) and 57.9 % (95 % CI: 49.6 %-65.7 %) were vaccinated for influenza, respectively. Factors associated with influenza vaccination for postpartum women included tetanus vaccination (aOR: 3.62, 95 % CI: 1.89–6.92); received vaccination recommendations from clinicians during prenatal check-ups (aOR: 3.39, 95 % CI: 2.06–5.59); had other children in household vaccinated for influenza (aOR: 2.25, 95 % CI: 1.08–4.68); and secondary/university education (aOR: 0.15–0.31) with no formal education as reference. For postpartum women, reasons for vaccination were perceived benefits for mother and infant, whereas not being offered vaccines was most cited for non-vaccination. Most prenatal care physicians recommended influenza vaccines during prenatal check-ups but believed vaccination causes flu-like symptoms.ConclusionVaccination campaigns and provisions of free vaccines effectively increased knowledge and coverage among women in Costa Rica. To improve access, women should be offered vaccines during prenatal care appointments. Educating healthcare workers about vaccine benefits for themselves and patients is needed to mitigate safety concerns. 相似文献

BackgroundPrevious studies have not estimated vaccine effectiveness (VE) against influenza in the working-age Japanese population. In this study, we determined VE in adult workers at a Japanese company.MethodsWe estimated VE based on self-reported data regarding influenza infections and vaccinations in employees of an auto parts manufacturing company during three influenza seasons from 2017 to 2020. VE was estimated as 100% × [1 ? odds ratio (the ratio of the odds of being diagnosed with influenza among enrollees with and without influenza vaccination)]. Odds ratios were estimated using logistic regression.ResultsWe included 11,347 worker records [3,592 (2017–18), 3,663 (2018–19), and 4,092 (2019–20)] from employees who had worked with the company throughout each influenza season. The adjusted VE was moderate and significant in the 2019–20 season (VE = 53%; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 30% to 69%) but low or negative and non-significant during the 2017–18 (VE = 28%; 95% CI = -5% to 50%) and 2018–19 (VE = -11%; 95% CI = - 42% to 14%) seasons.ConclusionsInfluenza vaccines were moderately effective during the 2019–20 season but showed low or negative effectiveness during the 2017–18 and 2018–19 seasons. Self-reports from worker records can successfully help determine VE against influenza. 相似文献

BackgroundIt is critical to monitor changes in vaccine effectiveness against COVID-19 outcomes for various vaccine products in different population subgroups.MethodsWe conducted a retrospective study in patients ≥12 years who underwent testing for SARS-CoV-2 virus from April 14 through October 25, 2021, at urgent care centers in the New York metropolitan area. Patients self-reported vaccination status at the time of testing. We used a test-negative design to estimate vaccine effectiveness (VE) by comparing odds of a positive test for SARS-CoV-2 infection among vaccinated (n = 474,805), partially vaccinated (n = 87,834), and unvaccinated (n = 369,333) patients, adjusted for demographic factors and calendar time.ResultsVE against symptomatic infection after 2 doses of mRNA vaccine was 96% (95% Confidence Interval: 95%, 97%) in the pre-delta period and reduced to 79% (95% CI: 77%, 81%) in the delta period. In the delta period, VE for 12–15-year-olds (85%; [95% CI: 81%, 88%]) was higher compared to older age groups (<65% for all other age groups). VE estimates did not differ by sex and race/ethnicity. VE against symptomatic infection was the highest for individuals with a prior infection followed by full vaccination. VE against symptomatic infection after the 2-dose mRNA-1273 vaccine (82% [95% CI: 80%, 84%]) was higher compared to the BNT162b2 vaccine (76% [95% CI: 74%, 78%]) in the delta period. VE after 1-dose of the Ad26.COV2.S vaccine was the lowest compared to other vaccines (19% [95% CI: 15%, 23%]) in the delta period.ConclusionsVE against infection after two doses of the mRNA vaccines was high initially, but significantly reduced against the delta variant for both FDA-approved vaccines. 相似文献

ObjectivesInfluenza vaccination coverage among pregnant women in the United States is suboptimal. We surveyed women who were pregnant during the 2016–17 influenza season to assess knowledge and attitudes regarding influenza vaccination.MethodsWe identified and sampled pregnant women to include approximately equal numbers of vaccinated and unvaccinated women from strata defined by vaccination status and trimester from four integrated health systems in the Vaccine Safety Datalink (VSD). Potential participants were contacted via mail and telephone to complete a standardized survey. Characteristics and responses of women vaccinated and unvaccinated during pregnancy were compared.ResultsThe survey was completed by 510 (48%) of 1062 contacted women; 500 were included in the analysis. Vaccine receipt while pregnant was associated with primigravida status (p = 0.02), college degree (p = 0.01), employment in health care (p < 0.01), and history of routine annual influenza vaccination (p < 0.01). Among 330 vaccinated women, the primary reasons for vaccination included protection of self and baby from influenza (n = 233, 71%), and medical professional recommendation (n = 46, 14%). Multiple reasons were given for nonvaccination, but concern about ‘negative effects’ was cited most often (n = 44, 29%). Vaccinated women were significantly more likely to believe that influenza vaccines are safe and effective, and to recognize the potential for harm from influenza infection. Nearly all women reported receiving at least one influenza vaccination recommendation from a healthcare provider.ConclusionsVaccinated pregnant women were more likely to receive routine annual influenza vaccine compared to those not vaccinated. Recommendations by obstetric providers should be supplemented with efforts to encourage women of childbearing age to receive annual vaccination. 相似文献

Using a nationally representative household sample, we sought to better understand types of medical mistrust as a driver of COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy. We used survey responses to conduct a latent class analysis to classify respondents into categories and explained this classification as a function of sociodemographic and attitudinal variables using multinomial logistic regression models. We then estimated the probability of respondents agreeing to receive a COVID-19 vaccine conditional on their medical mistrust category. We extracted a five-class solution to represent trust. The high trust group (53.0 %) is characterized by people who trust both their doctors and medical research. The trust in own doctor group (19.0 %) trust their own doctors but is ambiguous when it comes to trusting medical research. The high distrust group (6.3 %) neither trust their own doctor nor medical research. The undecided group (15.2 %) is characterized by people who agree on some dimensions and disagree on others. The no opinion group (6.2 %) did not agree nor disagree with any of the dimensions. Relative to the high trust group, those who trust their own doctors are almost 20 percentage points less likely to plan to get vaccinated (average marginal effect (AME) = 0.21, p <.001), and those who have high distrust are 24 percentage points less likely (AME = -0.24, p <.001) to report planning to get the vaccine. Results indicate that beyond sociodemographic characteristics and political attitudes, people’s trust archetypes on parts of the medical field significantly predict their probability of wanting to get vaccinated. Our findings suggest that efforts to combat vaccine hesitancy should focus on building capacity of trusted providers to speak with their patients and parents of their patients, to recommend COVID-19 vaccination and build a trusting relationship; and increase trust and confidence in medical research. 相似文献

SARS-CoV-2 vaccination has been reported to be associated with the induction of thyroid disorders. To investigate the influence of SARS-CoV-2 vaccination on the disease course of patients who were undergoing treatment for Graves’ disease (GD), a total of 651 consecutive GD patients who attended follow-up visits in Jiangyuan Hospital were enrolled in this retrospective study, including 443 inactivated SARS-CoV-2 vaccine recipients and 208 unvaccinated participants. The changes in serum levels of free triiodothyronine (fT3), free thyroxine (fT4), thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) and TSH receptor antibody (TRAb) were analyzed. Crude and adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) were estimated using Cox regression models to investigate the risks in incident TRAb positivity and hyperthyroidism recurrence following vaccination. The median levels of TRAb and fT3 significantly decreased in both vaccinated and unvaccinated groups during the GD hyperthyroidism treatment. The fT4 levels of both groups were well within normal limits and presented downward trends simultaneously. Although the present study observed an increasing trend of TSH level during follow-up, significant difference was not seen in both vaccinated and unvaccinated groups. Except for newly diagnosed GD patients, vaccinated participants had significantly lower risks of incident TRAb positivity (adjusted HR = 0.22; 95%CI: 0.10–0.48, P < 0.001) after adjusted for sex, age, disease duration and MMI dose at baseline. Besides, vaccination was unlikely to serve as a risk factor for hyperthyroidism recurrence (adjusted HR = 1.20; 95%CI: 0.51–2.83, P = 0.678). Notably, newly diagnosed patients who received vaccination were just as likely to achieve remission of thyrotoxicosis as those not receiving the vaccination at any time. Our results concluded that inactivated SARS-CoV-2 vaccination would not disturb the treatment course among GD hyperthyroidism patients. 相似文献

The Western Pacific Region (WPR) established a goal to decrease chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection among children to <1% and to achieve ≥95% hepatitis B vaccine birth dose (HepB-BD) and ≥95% three-dose (HepB3) coverage by 2017. In 2016, we conducted a national serosurvey in the Solomon Islands among 6–7-year-old school children to assess progress towards the control goal and immunity to measles, rubella, tetanus and diphtheria. Eighty schools were selected systematically proportional to their 6–7-year-old population; all 6–7-year-olds were enrolled. We collected basic demographic information and vaccination history. Children were tested for HBV surface antigen (HBsAg) using a rapid test, and for immunity to measles, rubella, tetanus, and diphtheria using a multiplex bead assay. In total, 1,249 out of 1,492 children (84%) were enrolled, among whom 1,169 (94%) underwent HBsAg testing and 1,156 (93%) provided dried blood spots. Almost 80% (n = 982) of enrolled children had vaccination cards, among whom 59% (n = 584) received a timely HepB-BD (within 24 hours of birth), 95% (n = 932) received HepB3, and >90% received vaccines for diphtheria, tetanus, and measles (rubella vaccine was not available at the time). HBsAg prevalence was 3.1% (95% confidence interval (CI): 2.0%–4.9%), with 55% of identified cases from one province. Among 982 children with vaccination cards, HBsAg prevalence was higher among children who had not received a timely HepB-BD and at least two HepB doses compared to those who had (4% vs. 2%). Of 1,156 tested children, immunoprotection estimates were 99% (95% CI: 98%–99%) for measles, 99% (95% CI: 97%–100%) for rubella, 85% (95% CI: 83%–87%) for tetanus, and 51% (95% CI: 47%–55%) for diphtheria. Improving timely HepB-BD coverage and maintaining high HepB3 coverage could help Solomon Islands reach the regional HBV control goal. Low immunity to tetanus and diphtheria suggests the need to introduce booster doses to ensure long-term protection. 相似文献

BackgroundThis phase III study evaluated safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of V114 (15-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine) in healthy infants. V114 contains all 13 serotypes in PCV13 and additional serotypes 22F and 33F.MethodsHealthy infants were randomized to two primary doses and one toddler dose (2+1 regimen) of V114 or PCV13 at 3, 5, and 12 months of age; diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis (DTaP), inactivated poliovirus (IPV), Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib), hepatitis B (HepB) vaccine was administered concomitantly. Adverse events (AEs) were collected on Days 1–14 following each vaccination. Serotype-specific anti-pneumococcal immunoglobulin G (IgG) was measured 30 days post-primary series, immediately prior to toddler dose, and 30 days post-toddler dose. Primary objectives included non-inferiority of V114 to PCV13 for 13 shared serotypes and superiority of V114 to PCV13 for serotypes 22F and 33F.Results1191 healthy infants were randomized to V114 (n = 595) or PCV13 (n = 596). Proportions of participants with solicited AEs and serious AEs were comparable between groups. V114 met non-inferiority criteria for 13 shared serotypes, based on difference in proportions with serotype-specific IgG ≥0.35 μg/mL (lower bound of two-sided 95% confidence interval [CI] >−10.0) and IgG geometric mean concentration (GMC) ratios (lower bound of two-sided 95% CI >0.5) at 30 days post-toddler dose. V114 met superiority criteria for serotypes 22F and 33F, based on response rates (lower bound of two-sided 95% CI >10.0) and IgG GMC ratios (lower bound of two-sided 95% CI >2.0) at 30 days post-toddler dose.Antibody responses to DTaP-IPV-Hib-HepB met non-inferiority criteria, based on antigen-specific response rates.ConclusionA two-dose primary series plus toddler dose of V114 was well-tolerated in healthy infants. Compared with PCV13, V114 provided non-inferior immune responses to 13 shared serotypes and superior immune responses to additional serotypes 22F and 33F. 相似文献

IntroductionCoronavirus infection is a particular risk for patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), because they are much more likely to become severely ill due to oxygen supply problems. Primary prevention, including COVID-19 vaccination is of paramount importance in this disease group. The aim of our study was to assess COVID-19 vaccination coverage in COPD patients during the first vaccination campaign of the COVID-19 pandemic.MethodsA cross-sectional observational study (CHANCE) has been conducted in COPD patients in the eastern, western and central regions of Hungary from 15th November 2021. The anthropometric, respiratory function test results and vaccination status of 1,511 randomly selected patients were recorded who were aged 35 years and older.ResultsThe median age was 67 (61–72) years, for men: 67 (62–73) and for women: 66 (60–72) years, with 47.98 % men and 52.02 % women in our sample. The prevalence of vaccination coverage for the first COVID-19 vaccine dose was 88.62 %, whereas 86.57 % of the patients received the second vaccine dose. When unvaccinated (n = 172) and double vaccinated (n = 1308) patients were compared, the difference was significant both in quality of life (CAT: 17 (12–23) vs 14 (10–19); p < 0.001) and severity of dyspnea (mMRC: 2 (2–2) vs 2 (1–2); p = 0.048). The COVID-19 infection rate between double vaccinated and unvaccinated patients was 1.61 % vs 22.67 %; p < 0.001 six months after vaccination. The difference between unvaccinated and vaccinated patients was significant (8.14 % vs 0.08 %; p < 0.001) among those with acute COVID-19 infection hospitalized. In terms of post-COVID symptoms, single or double vaccinated patients had significantly fewer outpatient hospital admissions than unvaccinated patients (7.56 vs 0 %; p < 0.001).ConclusionThe COVID-19 vaccination coverage was satisfactory in our sample. The uptake of COVID-19 vaccines by patients with COPD is of utmost importance because they are much more likely to develop severe complications. 相似文献

BackgroundMost Neisseria meningitidis involved in invasive disease among American college students express serogroup B antigen. The Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) recommends healthcare providers (HCPs) share clinical decision making with patients to determine individual value of meningococcal serogroup B vaccination (MenB) rather than routinely recommend vaccination as with the meningococcal A,C,W,Y vaccine (MenACWY). This study examines the attitudes and practices of HCPs working in college student health centers (SHCs) regarding the recommendation and administration of MenB to students.MethodsThe study was conducted as an online and phone survey of SHC HCPs from a sample of colleges across the United States between May 2017 and July 2018. Items compared college SHC policies and practices for MenB to those for MenACWY. It also assessed perceived barriers to and facilitators of MenB delivery to students.ResultsAmong the 147 respondents, almost 50% more reported their SHC stocked and administered MenACWY (54.1%) than MenB (37%) (p = .004). Almost five times as many colleges required their students receive MenACWY as MenB (53.5% vs. 10.5%, p < .001). A greater percentage requested students to submit records for MenACWY than MenB (77.3% vs. 46.9%, p < .001), and over three times as many tracked student-body coverage rates for MenACWY than MenB (55.6% vs. 15.8%, p < .001). Nearly three quarters of respondents estimated their college’s student body MenB coverage rate to be ≤ 10% or were unable to provide any estimate. Factors perceived by over half of the participants as moderate to extreme barriers to administering MenB included high upfront costs for SHCs to purchase and stock MenB (68.7%), and high out-of-pocket costs for students to receive it (82.8%).ConclusionsA minority of college SHCs require, offer or track Men B vaccination on their campuses. Financial concerns are common barriers to SHCs’ stocking and administering MenB to students. 相似文献

BackgroundThe WHO recommends research into non-specific effects of vaccination. For rotavirus vaccines, these have not yet been well established. We studied non-specific effects up to 18 months of age using data from a quasi-experimental before-after study comparing cohorts of rotavirus vaccinated and unvaccinated infants with medical risk conditions.MethodsInfants were enrolled at six weeks of age before and after a stepped-wedge implementation of a hospital-based risk-group rotavirus vaccination program. Other infant vaccinations were administered according to the Dutch National Immunization Program and similar in both cohorts. Non-specific effect outcomes were prospectively collected using monthly questionnaires and included acute hospitalization (excluding for acute gastroenteritis), monthly incidence of acute respiratory illness and eczema. We used time-to-event analysis and negative binomial regression to assess the effect of at least one dose of rotavirus vaccination for each of these outcomes.FindingsThe analysis included 496 rotavirus unvaccinated and 719 vaccinated medical risk infants. In total, 1067 (88%) were premature, 373 (31%) small for gestational age and 201 (17%) had a congenital pathology. The adjusted hazard ratio for first acute hospitalization was 0·91 (95 %CI 0·76;1·16) for rotavirus vaccinated versus unvaccinated infants. Adjusted incidence rate ratio for acute respiratory illness was 1·05 (95 %CI 0·96;1·15) and for eczema 0·89 (95 %CI 0·69;1·15).ConclusionThe results suggest no, or minimal non-specific effects from rotavirus vaccination on acute hospitalization, acute respiratory illness or eczema in medical risk infants.Trial registration: as NTR5361 in the Dutch trial registry, www.trialregister.nl. 相似文献

Vaccination guidelines for dogs and cats indicate that core vaccines (for dogs, rabies, distemper, adenovirus, parvovirus; for cats, feline parvovirus, herpes virus-1, calicivirus) are essential to maintain health, and that non-core vaccines be administered according to a clinician’s assessment of a pet’s risk of exposure and susceptibility to infection. A reliance on individual risk assessment introduces the potential for between-practice inconsistencies in non-core vaccine recommendations. A study was initiated to determine non-core vaccination rates of dogs (Leptospira, Borrelia burgdorferi, Bordetella bronchiseptica, canine influenza virus) and cats (feline leukemia virus) in patients current for core vaccines in veterinary practices across the United States. Transactional data for 5,531,866 dogs (1,670 practices) and 1,914,373 cats (1,661 practices) were retrieved from practice management systems for the period November 1, 2016 through January 1, 2020, deidentified and normalized. Non-core vaccination status was evaluated in 2,798,875 dogs and 788,772 cats that were core-vaccine current. Nationally, median clinic vaccination rates for dogs were highest for leptospirosis (70.5%) and B. bronchiseptica (68.7%), and much lower for canine influenza (4.8%). In Lyme-endemic states, the median clinic borreliosis vaccination rate was 51.8%. Feline leukemia median clinic vaccination rates were low for adult cats (34.6%) and for kittens and 1-year old cats (36.8%). Individual clinic vaccination rates ranged from 0 to 100% for leptospirosis, B. bronchiseptica and feline leukemia, 0–96% for canine influenza, and 0–94% for borreliosis. Wide variation in non-core vaccination rates between clinics in similar geographies indicates that factors other than disease risk are driving the use of non-core vaccines in pet dogs and cats, highlighting a need for veterinary practices to address gaps in patient protection. Failure to implement effective non-core vaccination strategies leaves susceptible dogs and cats unprotected against vaccine-preventable diseases. 相似文献

Background and AimsInfluenza vaccination is recommended by the World Health Organisation for pregnant women, offering the dual benefit of protecting pregnant women and their newborn infants against influenza infection. Various factors can influence vaccine immunogenicity, with obesity being one factor implicated in varied responses. This study aimed to investigate the impact of body mass index (BMI) on vaccine responses following influenza vaccination during pregnancy.MethodsPregnant women attending the Women’s and Children’s Hospital in South Australia during 2014–2016 were invited to participate. Participant’s clinical and demographic factors were recorded prior to administration of licensed seasonal influenza vaccination. Blood samples were collected before and one month post-vaccination to measure antibody responses by haemagglutination inhibition (HI) assay. Seroprotection was defined as a post-vaccination HI titre ≥ 1:40. Regression models assessed associations with failure to achieve seroprotective antibodies to H1, H3, and B influenza strains.ResultsA total of 96 women were enrolled in the study at a median gestation of 22 weeks with a BMI range of 18–49 kg/m2. Paired sera samples were available for 90/96 (94%). Most pregnant women (72/90, 80%) demonstrated seroprotective antibody titres to all three influenza vaccine antigens (A(H1N1)pdm09, A(H3N2), B/Yamagata) following vaccination. Compared with women with BMI < 30 kg/m2, those with high BMI were less likely to fail to achieve seroprotective antibodies, however this was not statistically significant (RR 0.42, 95% CI 0.11–1.68; p = 0.22). A greater proportion of women vaccinated during their second (47/53, 93%) or third trimester (18/25, 72%) demonstrated seroprotection to all three vaccine antigens following vaccination compared with women vaccinated during their first trimester (7/12, 58%).ConclusionHigh BMI did not impair seroprotection levels following influenza vaccination in pregnant women. Gestation at vaccination may be an important consideration for optimising vaccine protection for pregnant women and their newborns. Further assessment of first trimester influenza vaccine responses is warranted. 相似文献

This study investigates that how the number of COVID-19 vaccines secured correlates with the vaccination coverage (full and booster) depending on whether or not there is trust in national government across 47 countries. The data are based on global figures as of Nov. 2021 and Feb. 2022 while measures for confidence in government is according to Gallup World Poll, Oct. 2021. The model includes an interaction term of these two predictors, also controls for a range of socio-economic factors and country specific variables. The results indicate a non-linear and mixed relationship between the numbers secured, the public trust, and the vaccination rate. In Feb. 2022, with confidence in government, securing number of vaccines to cover 200% of the population (or more) increased the full vaccination rate by 12.26% (95% CI: 11.70–12.81); where number secured was 300% (or more), the coverage increased by 7.46% (95% CI: 6.95–7.97). Under similar scenarios, rate of booster shots increased by 13.16% (95% CI: 12.62–13.70; p < 0.01) and 14.36% (95% CI: 13.86–14.85; p < 0.01), respectively. Where the number secured fell below 200%, confidence in government had a revers relationship with the rate of full vaccination (?2.65; 95% CI: ?3.32 to ?1.99), yet positive with the rate of booster shots (1.65; 95% CI: 1.18–2.12). These results indicate that better success can be achieved by a combination of factors including securing sufficient number of vaccines as well as improving the public trust. Vaccine abundance, however, cannot be translated into greater success in vaccination coverage. This study highlights the importance of efficiency in acquiring vaccine resources and need for improvement in public belief in immunization programmes rather than stock piling. 相似文献

BackgroundRecommendations for human papillomavirus vaccination have relied on immunogenicity studies and efficacy results derived from adult women. Insufficient information exists regarding HPV effectiveness in vaccinated girls as they become sexually active, regardless of dose scheme. We aimed to compare the prevalence of high-risk HPV between unvaccinated and vaccinated young women eight years after immunization.MethodsAfter eight years, we recontacted women who received two-dose of bivalent or three-dose—either bivalent or quadrivalent—, HPV vaccine when aged 9–10 years-old as part of a clinical trial. Additionally, we recruited a contemporaneous unvaccinated woman group for comparison. Only those sexually active were included. High-risk HPV DNA was determined in urine samples and compared across groups.ResultsThe prevalence of HPV16/18 types was 6.8% (95 %CI 3.2–14.1%) in the unvaccinated (n = 6/88), 1.1% (95 %CI 0.2–5.8%) in the three-dose (n = 1/93), and 0.0% (95 %CI 0.0–7.0%) in the two-dose group (n = 0/51).ConclusionHPV vaccination, with two-dose of bivalent or three-dose schemes—either with the bivalent or quadrivalent vaccine—, was associated with a lower prevalence of HPV16/18 types eight years after primary immunization. 相似文献

BackgroundTo examine rates of serious pneumococcal infections up to 10 years after vaccination with 7-valent conjugated pneumococcal vaccine (PCV7) in patients with arthritis compared to non-vaccinated arthritis patients.MethodsIn total, 595 adult arthritis patients (rheumatoid arthritis; RA = 342, 80 % women and spondylarthropathy; SpA = 253, 45 % women) received one dose of PCV7. Mean age/disease duration were 62/16 and 51/14 years, respectively. For each patient, 4 matched reference subjects were identified.At vaccination, 420 patients received bDMARDs (anti-TNF = 330, tocilizumab = 15, abatacept = 18, anakinra = 1, rituximab = 56). Methotrexate was given as monotherapy (n = 86) or in combination with bDMARD (n = 220). 89 SpA patients received NSAIDs without DMARD.The Skåne Healthcare Register was searched for ICD-10 diagnostic codes for pneumococcal infections (pneumonia, lower respiratory tract infection, septicemia, meningitis, septic arthritis) between January 2000 and December 2018. Frequency of infections after vs before vaccination were calculated (relative risks). Relative risk ratio (RRR) and relative risk reduction (1-RRR) were calculated comparing patients vs non-vaccinated references. Kaplan-Meier and Cox regression were used to investigate time to first event and predictors of infections.ResultsAmong vaccinated RA and SpA patients, there was a significant relative risk reduction of pneumonia and all serious infections; 53% and 46%, respectively. There was no significant difference in time to first pneumonia or all serious infections after vaccination between patients and references. Higher age, RA diagnosis and concomitant prednisolone were associated with infections.ConclusionOne dose of pneumococcal conjugate vaccine may decrease risk of serious pneumococcal infection up to 10 years in patients with arthritis receiving immunomodulating treatment. 相似文献
