متن کاملPersistence of protection to hepatitis B vaccine and response to booster dose among children and adolescents in Dakahleya- Egypt.
The long-term protective effect of hepatitis B virus (HBV) vaccine and the need for booster dose vaccination remain doubtful. The study aimed to estimate the sero-protection rate and evaluate immune response to a booster dose in children and adolescents with complete HBV vaccination during infancy. According to study design, 902 children were recruited from 2 cities and 3 villages in Dakahleya ...
متن کاملBooster vaccination of pre-school children with reduced-antigen-content diphtheria-tetanus-acellular pertussis-inactivated poliovirus vaccine co-administered with measles-mumps-rubella-varicella vaccine
BACKGROUND Pertussis occurs in older children, adolescents and adults due to waning immunity after primary vaccination. Booster vaccination for pre-school children has been recommended in Italy since 1999. In this study (NCT00871000), the immunogenicity, safety and reactogenicity of a booster dose of reduced-antigen content diphtheria-tetanus-acellular pertussis-inactivated poliovirus vaccine (...
