We aimed to explore whether newborns in high-risk areas have pre-existing pneumococcal-specific cellular immune responses that effects early acquisition.
The production of functional antipneumococcal antibodies in otitisprone children demonstrates that they respond to the current pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV)and are likely to respond to pneumolysin-based vaccines as effectively as healthy children.
Identified dominant PCR-ribotypes common to geographically disparate Australian paediatric populations
This research presents serotype, antimicrobial susceptibility and outcome data from paediatric meningitis patients prior to introduction of Haemophilus...
Nontypeable Haemophilus influenzae (NTHI) strains are responsible for respiratory-related infections which cause a significant burden of disease in...
Our findings highlight the need to consider age, ethnicity, seasonality and climate when evaluating rotavirus vaccine programs.
Influenza diagnosis codes had high specificity (98.6%) and modest positive predictive value (PPV; 84.1%) and sensitivity (86.1%) for a laboratory-confirmed...
We investigated trends in invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) in Western Australia (WA).
