Survey of Physician Practices, Attitudes, and Knowledge Regarding Recombinant Zoster Vaccine
CONCLUSION: Most primary care physicians welcome updated ACIP RZV recommendations for immunocompromised adults. Knowledge gaps, communication issues, and financial barriers need to be addressed to optimize vaccination delivery.PMID:35794307 | PMC:PMC9261227 | DOI:10.1007/s11606-022-07721-z

Zoster sine herpete following BNT162b2 mRNA COVID-19 vaccination in an immunocompetent patient
IDCases. 2022 Jul 13;29:e01563. doi: 10.1016/j.idcr.2022.e01563. eCollection 2022.ABSTRACTAs a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, mRNA vaccination has become widespread. Recently, it has been suggested that instances of herpes zoster increase following mRNA COVID-19 vaccination. Herein, we describe the first case of zoster sine herpete (ZSH) after mRNA vaccination for COVID-19. A 60-year-old Japanese immunocompetent man presented with fever, fatigue, headache, cervical pain, and lumbar pain, which developed after receiving a second dose of BNT162b2 mRNA COVID-19 vaccination. Whereas most symptoms improved with symptomatic tr...

Seropositive Neuromyelitis Optica in a Case of Undiagnosed Ankylosing Spondylitis: A Neuro-Rheumatological Conundrum
In this study, a 35-year-old Indian man with an undiagnosed progressive axial spondyloarthropathy (i.e., AS) is reported presenting with acute-onset longitudinally extensive transverse myelitis, a clinical subset of NMOSD. Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD), a primary demyelinating disorder of the central nervous system (CNS), is an autoimmune astrocytopathy against foot processes of aquaporin-4 (AQP4) water channels, which manifests with optic neuritis, longitudinally extensive transverse myelitis (LETM), area-postrema syndrome, brainstem syndrome diencephalic syndrome, and cerebral syndrome.1-4 Ankylosing spo...

Cost-effectiveness of herpes zoster vaccines in the U.S.: A systematic review
Prev Med Rep. 2022 Jul 22;29:101923. doi: 10.1016/j.pmedr.2022.101923. eCollection 2022 Oct.ABSTRACTThe purpose of this study was to conduct a systematic review to evaluate the cost-effectiveness evidence of herpes zoster vaccines in the U.S. A systematic literature review was undertaken for U.S. studies focused on the cost-effectiveness of herpes zoster vaccines. Eligibility criteria included studies that evaluated the cost-effectiveness of the recombinant zoster vaccine (RZV) and zoster vaccine live (ZVL) and were published between 2015 and 2021. Article titles and abstracts were reviewed to identify relevant publication...

Identifying the Optimal Age for Herpes Zoster Vaccination - Yichang City, Hubei Province, China, 2017-2019
China CDC Wkly. 2022 Jul 22;4(29):631-634. doi: 10.46234/ccdcw2022.137.ABSTRACTWHAT IS ALREADY KNOWN ABOUT THIS TOPIC?: Herpes zoster (shingles) is a common skin condition in older adults, which usually presents as a painful rash with blisters. Vaccination is the most effective method to prevent shingles. However, there is not sufficient population-based epidemiological data in China to optimize the timing of zoster vaccination.WHAT IS ADDED BY THIS REPORT?: Clustering analyses of population-wide epidemiological data from the Healthcare Big Data Platform in Yichang, China showed that the average annual zoster incidence is ...

Boosting the VZV-Specific Memory B and T Cell Response to Prevent Herpes Zoster After Kidney Transplantation
CONCLUSION: VZV booster vaccination increases VZV-specific IgG titers and percentage VZV-specific memory T-cells for at least 1 year both in ESRD patients and healthy controls. VZV-specific memory B cells significantly increased in patients up to 3 months after vaccination. Prophylactic VZV booster vaccination prior to transplantation could reduce HZ incidence and severity after transplantation.PMID:35935972 | PMC:PMC9352887 | DOI:10.3389/fimmu.2022.927734

Vaccination coverage of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus: Challenging issues from an outpatient secondary care setting in Greece
CONCLUSIONS: Vaccination rates of patients with T2D show an increasing trend, especially for influenza and S. pneumoniae, although the one for S. pneumoniae was low. Older people seem more prone to vaccination, the one for herpes zoster was low with infected patients remaining unvaccinated while significantly low coverage was observed for other VPDs. The findings are important to improve effectiveness of preventative services.PMID:35979460 | PMC:PMC9376377 | DOI:10.3389/fpubh.2022.921243
