Bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG) osteomyelitis is a very rare complication of BCG vaccination. We report a 14-month-old boy who received BCG vaccination at birth. He developed pain and swelling in his left calf at 11 months of age. BCG osteomyelitis was diagnosed in right femur and left tibia. He had no evidence of immunodeficiency. After antituberculous therapy and surgical treatment, the bone le...
BACKGROUND. Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccine is administered at birth to protect infants against tuberculosis throughout Africa, where most perinatal HIV-1 transmission occurs. We examined whether BCG vaccination alters the levels of activated HIV target T cells in HIV-exposed South African infants. METHODS. HIV-exposed infants were randomized to receive routine (at birth) or delayed (at ...
Background Vaccination of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected infants with bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG) is contraindicated. HIV-exposed newborns need a new tuberculosis vaccination strategy that protects against tuberculosis early in life and avoids the potential risk of BCG disease until after HIV infection has been excluded. Methods This double-blind, randomized, controlled trial c...
OBJECTIVE To study local response to BCG vaccination in twin babies and find out the effect of zygosity andchorionicity on BCG uptake. DESIGN Analytical observational study. SETTING Tertiary hospital. METHODS Twin pairs born in the hospital were evaluated for zygosity and chorionicity. BCG vaccination was given within 48 hours of birth to babies >/=33 weeks of gestation and birth weight >...
OBJECTIVE The Mycobacterium bovis Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) neonatal vaccination inhibits allergy-induced pathologic changes. However, the mechanisms underlying this process are unclear. This study aimed to investigate the role of interferon (IFN)-γ and interleukin (IL)-17 in the protective effects of the BCG neonatal vaccination on allergic pulmonary inflammation and airway hyperresponsiv...
Serum adenosine deaminase (ADA) levels reflect activity of stimulated T lymphocytes and its levels are raised whenever cell mediated immunity is stimulated. One hundred term normal newborns were studied to evaluate effect of BCG vaccination on serum ADA levels. Serum ADA was measured at birth and 6 weeks after BCG vaccination. Only 67 subjects came for follow up after 6 weeks. The levels were 6...

I write in response to the article by Al Jarad et al on this topic. The first study to compare the eYcacy of BCG vaccination and its side eVects using the Bignal multipuncture device with the reusable handle and disposable heads was the pilot study of neonatal BCG vaccination carried out in 1992 for the Department of Health in our health authority. In previous studies in neonates and children u...

Buruli ulcer (BU) vaccine design faces similar challenges to those observed during development of prophylactic tuberculosis treatments. Multiple BU vaccine candidates, based upon Mycobacterium bovis BCG, altered Mycobacterium ulcerans (MU) cells, recombinant MU DNA, or MU protein prime-boosts, have shown promise by conferring transient protection to mice against the pathology of MU challenge. R...
