Persistent nasal carriage has been associated with Staphylococcus aureus infection. Previous S. aureus studies in Asia have primarily focused on clinical patients, providing limited information on persistent nasal carriage among the general adult population. This study examined 143 healthy adults in a community in Jiangsu, China. Nasal swab samples...

Background: The Sinovac enterovirus 71 (EV71) vaccine has shown good safety, immunogenicity, and efficacy in infants aged 6-35 months, whom are considered as the priority of the target population. However, 3-5 years old children accounted for approximately 30% of HFMD cases and are also worth our attention. Methods: A randomized, double-blind, plac...

This revie...

... [12][13][14] Furthermore, a comparative analysis of EV-A71 vaccine immunogenicity in children of different ages showed that the geometric mean titer (GMT) of EV-A71 neutralizing antibodies was higher in children aged 36-59 months compared to those aged 3-35 months. 21 In order to assess the reliability of VE estimates, we conducted a sensitivity analysis for the EV-A71 vaccine by altering the source of vaccination records. Specifically, we excluded 18 cases in which vaccination records were obtained through parental recall. ...
... The efficacy of PPSV23 varies between 60% and 70% against invasive pneumococcal disease caused by covered serotypes and there is no evidence that this vaccine is effective against pneumococcal pneumonia (Wang et al. 2018). In addition, children under 2 years old have a poor antibody response to this vaccine. ...
