Poisson-model analysis of the risk of vaccine-associated paralytic poliomyelitis in Japan between 1971 and 2000.
This study estimates the risk of vaccine-associated paralytic poliomyelitis (VAPP) in Japan between 1971 and 2000. We acquired data regarding the number of VAPP cases from the website of the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare, and we estimated the number of oral poliovirus vaccines (OPV) administered based on the reported immunization data. Risk was calculated as the ratio between the numbe...
متن کاملCharacterisation of vaccine-derived polioviruses isolated from sewage and river water in Japan.
BACKGROUND A nucleotide change from U to C at position 472 in the 5' non-coding region of the type 3 poliovirus is associated with increased neurovirulence. Moreover, the proportion of type 3 polioviruses containing this mutation (472-C revertants) correlates with the neurovirulence of a particular sample. We used mutant analysis by PCR and restriction-enzyme cleavage (MAPREC) to estimate the n...
متن کاملHigh diversity of poliovirus strains isolated from the central nervous system from patients with vaccine-associated paralytic poliomyelitis.
To establish the etiology of vaccine-associated paralytic poliomyelitis (VAPP), isolates from the central nervous system (CNS) from eight patients with VAPP were compared with stool isolates from the same patients. The vaccine (Sabin) origin was checked for all of the available isolates. Unique and similar strains were recovered from paired stool and CNS samples for five of the eight VAPP cases...
متن کاملRare adverse events associated with oral poliovirus vaccine in Brazil.
Oral poliovirus vaccine (OPV) developed by A. Sabin has been effectively used to control poliomyelitis in Brazil, and the last case with the isolation of a wild poliovirus strain occurred in March 1989. Although the vaccine controlled the circulation of wild strains and poliomyelitis cases associated with these strains were not detected during the last eight years, rare cases classified as vacc...
متن کاملVaccine-associated paralytic poliomyelitis: a retrospective cohort study of acute flaccid paralyses in Brazil.
BACKGROUND At the present time, in Brazil and other countries in the Americas, the only cases of paralytic poliomyelitis due to poliovirus are caused by vaccine strains. The recognition of possible determinants of vaccine-associated paralytic poliomyelitis (VAPP) by public health surveillance and immunization programmes is relevant to inform the debate on criteria for case definition and vaccin...
