Effectiveness of immunization against paralytic poliomyelitis in Nigeria.
BACKGROUND The number of cases of paralytic poliomyelitis has declined in Nigeria since the introduction of newly licensed monovalent oral poliovirus vaccines and new techniques of vaccine delivery.

متن کاملActive Immunization against Poliomyelitis
1. A single intracutaneous inoculation with a subinfective dose of the virus of poliomyelitis produces considerable immunity. 2. Virus-serum combinations produce an appreciable immunity, providing just sufficient serum is used to protect the animal from paralysis. If there is an excess of serum, the degree of immunity is considerably reduced.
متن کاملVaccine-associated paralytic poliomyelitis.

متن کاملActive Immunization against Poliomyelitis in Monkeys
1. A combination of poliomyelitis virus and specific human serum is effective for the production of active immunity. 2. For each gram of active virus given intradermally as an emulsion, 6 cc. of human immune serum, injected subcutaneously, was required in our experiments to protect a monkey from paralysis. Some degree of active immunity was induced. 3. Immunity, without symptom of the disease, ...
متن کاملParalytic hip instability in poliomyelitis.
A retrospective study was made of the results of surgical treatment of subluxation or dislocation of the hip in patients who had suffered from poliomyelitis. Good results were achieved in 46% and satisfactory results in 24%. The key factors for success are muscle balance, the femoral neck-shaft and anteversion angles, and the acetabular geometry. Iliopsoas transfer can augment the hip abductor ...
