Assessing the impact of educational methods on influenza vaccine uptake and patient knowledge and attitudes: a randomised controlled trial
CONCLUSION: Both arms of patient education increased uptake of influenza vaccination. Individualised counselling was not superior to pamphlets alone in improving uptake. Performing vaccination at the initial point of contact improves actual uptake rates.PMID:34911183 | DOI:10.11622/smedj.2021222

Multidisciplinary work promotes preventive medicine and health education in primary care: a cross-sectional survey
ConclusionsThe Teamwork and Collaboration models presented higher rates of preventive medicine and health education implementation as well as higher rates of patients ’ positive health behaviours documented in these models.This suggests multidisciplinary primary care models may contribute to population ’s health by enhancing preventive medicine and health education implementation alongside health professionals’ characteristics.

A Marginal Benefit Approach for Vaccinating Influenza "Superspreaders"
Conclusions. Our approach offers a means of estimating willingness to pay for search costs associated with targeted vaccination of superspreaders, which can inform policies regarding whether a targeted intervention should be implemented and, if so, up to what levels.

Seasonal Influenza Vaccination Effectiveness and Compliance among Hospital Health Care Workers.
CONCLUSIONS: Non-vaccinated HCW showed a higher, although not statistically significant, tendency for contracting laboratory-proven influenza than the vaccinated population. The main reasons for vaccination and non-vaccination were personal beliefs and habits. Education efforts are needed to improve compliance. Larger studies could further clarify this issue.

Brief education to promote maternal influenza vaccine uptake: A randomized controlled trial.
CONCLUSION: Although brief education was effective in improving vaccination uptake among pregnant women, overall vaccination rates remain suboptimal. Multicomponent approaches, including positive vaccination recommendations by healthcare professionals, are needed to promote maternal influenza vaccination. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION: www.clinicaltrials.gov (NCT01772901). PMID: 27667330 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Beliefs, attitudes, and barriers associated with the uptake of the seasonal influenza vaccine among patients visiting primary healthcare clinics.
CONCLUSION: Although most respondents said they were concerned about influenza and believed the vaccine to be effective, this study revealed a low rate of influenza vaccination. More public education and better arrangements for vaccination are required in the healthcare setting to overcome several reported barriers to vaccination. PMID: 29968892 [PubMed - in process]

Immunogenicity of trimeric autotransporter adhesins and their potential as vaccine targets
AbstractThe current problem of increasing antibiotic resistance and the resurgence of numerous infections indicate the need for novel vaccination strategies more than ever. In vaccine development, the search for and the selection of adequate vaccine antigens is the first important step. In recent years, bacterial outer membrane proteins have become of major interest, as they are the main proteins interacting with the extracellular environment. Trimeric autotransporter adhesins (TAAs) are important virulence factors in many Gram-negative bacteria, are localised on the bacterial surface, and mediate the first adherence to ho...

Examples of Outcome Reporting Bias in Vaccine Studies: Illustrating How Perpetuating Medical Consensus Can Impede Progress in Public Health
CONCLUSIONS: Conflicts of interest (e.g., financial) that abound between health regulatory agencies and the pharmaceutical industry impact what is ultimately reckoned as medical consensus. Outcome reporting bias that is inherent to all researchers to some degree, obscures medical and scientific truth. Advancement of public health requires that researchers have integrity and an openness and willingness to collaborate to resolve contradictory findings. In fact, it is usually through meticulous, rigorous, scientific investigation of contradictory findings that medical science has advanced and contributed to improvements in pu...

Impact of Video Education on Influenza Vaccination in Pregnancy.
CONCLUSION: Video education positively influenced vaccination health beliefs without impacting vaccination rates. Physician's recommendation was strongly associated with participant's decision to become vaccinated and may be most effective when emphasizing influenza vaccination's protective impact on the newborn,.
