Modeling the impact of vaccination for the immunization Agenda 2030: Deaths averted due to vaccination against 14 pathogens in 194 countries from 2021 to 2030
Vaccine. 2023 Aug 1:S0264-410X(23)00854-X. doi: 10.1016/j.vaccine.2023.07.033. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTBACKGROUND: The Immunization Agenda 2030 (IA2030) Impact Goal 1.1. aims to reduce the number of future deaths averted through immunization in the next decade. To estimate the potential impact of the aspirational coverage targets for IA2030, we developed an analytical framework and estimated the number of deaths averted due to an ambitious vaccination coverage scenario from 2021 to 2030 in 194 countries.METHOD: A demographic model was used to determine annual age-specific mortality estimates associated with vaccine c...

Pertussis, diphtheria, and tetanus antibodies seroprevalence in pregnant women and neonates, as a preliminary data for introduction of preconception or prenatal DTaP vaccination among Japanese society
Vaccine. 2022 Nov 22;40(49):7122-7129. doi: 10.1016/j.vaccine.2022.09.092. Epub 2022 Oct 28.ABSTRACTAn increasing number of countries have been introducing acellular pertussis vaccination during pregnancy for the prevention of neonatal pertussis. In response to the fact that infantile pertussis cases of 0-5 months age groups remained unchanged despite the universal vaccination program, prenatal pertussis vaccination has been a rising issue in Japan. Hence, we investigated the seroprevalence of pertussis, diphtheria, and tetanus antibodies in Japanese pregnant women and neonates, and evaluated the necessity of diphtheria-te...

Cost-effectiveness of pertussis booster vaccination for preschool children in Japan
CONCLUSION: The introduction of a DTaP booster vaccination to the routine immunization schedule can be expected to reduce the number of pertussis cases in the target population. However, our study showed that adding a booster vaccination for 6-year-old children to the schedule in Japan would not be cost-effective in terms of achieving herd immunity among unvaccinated infants.PMID:35039195 | DOI:10.1016/j.vaccine.2022.01.001

Changes and remaining challenges for the Japanese immunization program: Closing the vaccine gap
Vaccine. 2021 Apr 27:S0264-410X(21)00460-6. doi: 10.1016/j.vaccine.2021.04.023. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe Japanese immunization program has made considerable progress since 2009: several new vaccines have been introduced and most are included in the National Immunization Program (NIP). In October 2020, the Japanese law on immunization was revised, which resulted in a few laudable achievements. First, rotavirus vaccines were added to the NIP, 10 years after their introduction, and noteworthy studies of vaccine effectiveness and the incidence of intussusception in Japanese children were published. Second, rules on va...

Bordetella pertussis in School-Age Children, Adolescents, and Adults: A Systematic Review of Epidemiology, Burden, and Mortality in Asia
AbstractCyclic epidemics of pertussis (whooping cough) have been observed globally over the past twenty years despite high infant vaccine coverage. The resurgence of pertussis in high-income countries is partly due to waning vaccine immunity in older children and adults, as well as better surveillance and diagnostics. Moreover, in adolescents and adults, pertussis symptoms are mild and similar to common cough syndromes, meaning that it is under-diagnosed in older populations. A systematic search of MEDLINE, EMBASE, and BIOSIS was undertaken to identify studies published between 1  January 1990 and 17 June 2019, with info...

Knowledge, attitudes, and practices associated with pertussis vaccination during pregnancy: Japan, 2016-2017
Jpn J Infect Dis. 2021 Mar 31. doi: 10.7883/yoken.JJID.2020.489. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTNeonatal pertussis has the potential for severe complications, even death. Mothers have been identified as the most frequent source of neonatal pertussis. Almost a dozen countries have implemented pertussis vaccination programs for pregnant women to protect neonates, but Japan has not yet done so. The aim of this questionnaire-based study was to ascertain the willingness of women to be vaccinated during pregnancy and the factors associated with willingness. Subjects were 977 pregnant women who visited either of two selected hospi...
