Secondary Cases of Invasive Disease Caused by Encapsulated and Nontypeable Haemophilus influenzae - 10 U.S. Jurisdictions, 2011-2018
MMWR Morb Mortal Wkly Rep. 2023 Apr 14;72(15):386-390. doi: 10.15585/mmwr.mm7215a2.ABSTRACTHaemophilus influenzae (Hi) can cause meningitis and other serious invasive disease. Encapsulated Hi is classified into six serotypes (a-f) based on chemical composition of the polysaccharide capsule; unencapsulated strains are termed nontypeable Hi (NTHi). Hi serotype b (Hib) was the most common cause of bacterial meningitis in children in the pre-Hib vaccine era, and secondary transmission of Hi among children (e.g., to household contacts and in child care facilities) (1,2) led to the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (A...

Pneumococcal carriage following PCV13 delivered as one primary and one booster dose (1  + 1) compared to two primary doses and a booster (2 + 1) in UK infants
Vaccine. 2023 Apr 10:S0264-410X(23)00400-0. doi: 10.1016/j.vaccine.2023.04.017. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTIn January 2020 the UK changed from a 2 + 1 schedule for 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV13) to a 1 + 1 schedule (doses at 3 and 12 months) based on a randomized immunogenicity trial comparing the two schedules. Carriage prevalence measured at the time of booster and 6 months later in 191 of the 213 study infants was 57 % (109/191) and 60 % (114/190) respectively. There were eight episodes of vaccine-type (VT) or vaccine-related 6C carriage in the 2 + 1 and six in the 1 + 1 group; ≥4-fold rises in se...

Effect of reduced two-dose (1+1) schedule of 10 and 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (Synflorix < sup > TM < /sup > and Prevenar13 < sup > TM) < /sup > ) on nasopharyngeal carriage and serotype-specific immune response in the first two years of life: Results from an open-labelled randomized controlled trial in Indian children
CONCLUSION: The reduced dose schedule (1 + 1) of PCV13 results in significant VT-carriage reduction in the second year of life. Immune protection provided by 1 + 1 schedules of PCV10 and PCV13 in the second year of life is comparable to WHO-recommended 3-dose schedules.PMID:37045679 | DOI:10.1016/j.vaccine.2023.04.008

Vaccine co-administration in adults: An effective way to improve vaccination coverage
Hum Vaccin Immunother. 2023 Apr 11:2195786. doi: 10.1080/21645515.2023.2195786. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe ongoing COVID-19 pandemic highlights that complications and mortality associated with infectious diseases increase with age. Various vaccines are recommended for adults, but coverage rates remain suboptimal. Although co-administration would improve vaccine uptake and timely immunization, this is not routine practice in adults. We review key data on co-administration of vaccines in children and adults to reassure healthcare providers about its safety and advantages. In European countries and the United States, c...

Immunoglobulin profiling with large high-density peptide microarrays as screening method to detect candidate proteins for future biomarker detection in dogs with steroid-responsive meningitis-arteritis
Discussion. IL1Ra is an anti-inflammatory acute phase protein. Different immunoglobulin binding patterns on IL1Ra could be involved in the pathogenesis of SRMA and IL1Ra might be developed as future biomarker for SRMA.

A systematic review of pneumococcal conjugate vaccine impact on pneumococcal nasopharyngeal colonisation density in children under 5 years of age
CONCLUSION: There was no consensus regarding the impact of PCV on pneumococcal nasopharyngeal density. We recommend the use of standardised methods to evaluate PCV impact on density.PMID:37032228 | DOI:10.1016/j.vaccine.2023.03.063

Reduced quantity and function of pneumococcal antibodies are associated with exacerbations of COPD in SPIROMICS
Clin Immunol. 2023 Apr 6:109324. doi: 10.1016/j.clim.2023.109324. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTWhile hypogammaglobulinemia is associated with COPD exacerbations, it is unknown whether frequent exacerbators have specific defects in antibody production/function. We hypothesized that reduced quantity/function of serum pneumococcal antibodies correlate with exacerbation risk in the SPIROMICS cohort. We measured total pneumococcal IgG in n = 764 previously vaccinated participants with COPD. In a propensity-matched subset of n = 200 with vaccination within five years (n = 50 without exacerbations in the previous year; n = 75 wi...
