Vaccination coverage in children under one year of age and associated socioeconomic factors: maps of spatial heterogeneity
CONCLUSIONS: the results are useful for designing interventions regarding the structuring of vaccination services and the implementation of actions to increase vaccination coverage in clusters with less propensity to vaccinate.PMID:37729269 | DOI:10.1590/0034-7167-2022-0734

Effectiveness of 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine on all-cause pneumonia in children under 5  years in Shanghai, China: An observational study
CONCLUSIONS: PCV13 vaccination among children aged 0-5 years substantially reduced the incidence of all-cause pneumonia. Direct immunization of children under 5 years is an effective strategy to combat outpatient pneumonia, and hospitalized pneumonia.PMID:37620204 | DOI:10.1016/j.vaccine.2023.08.041

Individual polysaccharide quantification in polyvalent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine using rate nephelometry
J Immunol Methods. 2023 Aug 16:113539. doi: 10.1016/j.jim.2023.113539. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe multivalent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV) contains purified polysaccharides of different serotypes conjugated to a carrier protein. Testing the final formulated product for individual serotype polysaccharide content is critical in vaccine quality control which requires an assay specific to each serotype polysaccharide present in the formulated product. Antibodies specific to the serotypes specific polysaccharide were used in rate nephelometry assay for quantifying individual serotype polysaccharides in the formul...

Pneumococcal carriage, serotype distribution, and antimicrobial susceptibility in Papua New Guinean children vaccinated with PCV10 or PCV13 in a head-to-head trial
CONCLUSION: Even after PCV10 or PCV13 vaccination, children living in a high-risk setting such as PNG continue to experience high levels of pneumococcal colonization, including carriage of highly antimicrobial-resistant PCV serotypes. The study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov (CTN NCT01619462).PMID:37479616 | DOI:10.1016/j.vaccine.2023.07.026

Etiology of Acute Infectious Meningitis and Meningoencephalitis in Karachi, Pakistan: Retrospective Observational Study from a Tertiary Care Center
We report a broad range of pathogens causing ME in southern Pakistan and show a high burden of preventable illness. Synergistic actions to improve diagnostic strategies, increase vaccinations, and introduce measures to reduce water-borne and vector-borne diseases are required to reduce the ME burden in Pakistan and prevent future outbreaks.PMID:37460090 | DOI:10.4269/ajtmh.23-0182
